Email-gate?

The White House is passing the blame for unsolicited emails from the White House on a "third-party". Part of the statement they issued according to FoxNews here is...

"The White House e-mail list is made up of e-mail addresses obtained solely through the White House Web site. The White House doesn't purchase, upload or merge from any other list, again, all e-mails come from the White House Web site as we have no interest in e-mailing anyone who does not want to receive an e-mail," the statement said. "If an individual received the e-mail because someone else or a group signed them up or forwarded the e-mail, we hope they were not too inconvenienced."

[Emphasis mine]

The White House may not have purchased, uploaded or merged their email list from any other list, etc., etc., but no where to they say the White House did NOT forward their email list or sell their email list to a third-party.

Hmmmmm.
