That
dittoheads are among the worst of the legions of gullible fools who mindlessly swallow this noise. First of all, Rush's "18 US Code 107" addresses
Seamen and Stowaways. (Insert your own joke here.) It's just the latest example of how Limbaugh is absolutely full of shit, and only morons take anything he says seriously.
The chapter he's referring to is actually
18 U.S. Code § 2071. The key word you and Rush miss is that it refers to the
UNLAWFUL destruction of records that have been filed. Let that sink in a bit: "Whoever willfully
and unlawfully ..." Managing one's email is perfectly lawful as long any official records are preserved as required.
This is just common sense. Limbaugh's spin, that any document destruction is illegal, is painfully, obviously stupid. It should take all of about a nanosecond of critical thinking to recognize this. If it were true, government agencies would have no trash cans or shredders, and would require infinitely growing physical and electronic storage. (Hint: that's absurd, and it sure isn't reality.)
Do America a favor and learn to think for yourself. Stop letting propagandists do your thinking for you.
