To all: Some more E-mail readings.

Dear Mr. G*tes

I just received your E-mail. I have only been your attorney for a short time and while the attorney/client relationship can be fragile particularly in the beginning I feel I must be frank. I understand the difficulties you are having with the Justice Department. I understand your desire too, to 'tear them a new one that King Kong would envy'. Still there are in my opinion problems with your plans to 'settle this thing out of court'. If I might I would like to address your ideas one at a time.
Your first idea of 'bribe Congress' does on the surface have some merit and it would seem you have the resources. I would have to agree that there is a fair certainty that it could be done. The problem is that there may be an honest one or two mixed in. With 435 members to the House of Representatives and 100 Senators we cannot ignore the possibility. Bribing enough for a simple majority would not be enough to get them to drop the case and abolish the Department of Justice I fear. I also have no idea the going rate for a congressman and am not sure how to get it. They certainly don't post rates.
Your idea of getting elected President is more difficult to address. I am not sure how well you would do with the overall public as a candidate. Certainly 'dropping a billion or two in the campaign' would give you a leg up on your opponents. I also have to agree there are 'a lot of parallels between the current administration's ethics' and your own. Still the elections are over a year away and we can't be sure of the result.
The last idea of 'putting a virus in the new operating system that will erase Justice Department files' is intriguing. Can you really do that? It would certainly hamper their case to have their computers attacked. Unfortunately there are two problems I can see. One is that a lot of the information is already on the public record. With the case substantially over it is too late I fear. The other problem is that I fear someone might find that code on your new operating system. I am not technologically proficient but I do keep up on the news and it seems like every pimply faced high school kid without a date on Saturday night is using the time to find holes in your operating systems or browser. If they were to publish a finding of a deliberate virus in the system attacking the Justice Department, you would wishing it were only King Kong tearing you your new one.
Even now I am concerned that despite your assurances to the contrary some jackass is reading our E-mails.
Sincerly
Leon Sh*ffer Attorney at Law

Dear H*lary

Good to hear from you Hon. I know your letter was hard to write and most heartfelt. As we spoke of before I truly support you run for the Senate. I am sorry I ever lost your trust and I know that your concern for not having my piccadillos [I like to think of them that way, even though you chose to call them: My 'weakness for idiotic bimbo tramps'.] ruining your run at the Senate.
I want you to know that is not a concern for you now. I realize now the mistakes I was making and how it hurt you. The utter sincerity of your letter really came through and made a great impression on me. I want you to know that most sincerly. The part about what you will use to make your next coin purse was truly vivid and caught my attention like nothing else we have ever discussed. If you knew the impact of those few sentences on me you would not have felt the need to buy that knife "Just in case".
Your Loving Husband
B*ll
