Boxer: Climategate Email "Theft" Is A "Crime"
SEN. BOXER (D-CA): "I've been looking at these e-mails, even though they were stolen, they are now out in the public and we are now out looking through these e-mails...This is a crime, and I would ask unanimous consent to place into the record section 1030 of U.S. Criminal Code:
'Fraud and related activity in connection with computers having knowingly accessed a computer without authorization' it goes on, calling it a crime, so part of our looking at this will be looking at criminal activity"
'Fraud and related activity in connection with computers having knowingly accessed a computer without authorization' it goes on, calling it a crime, so part of our looking at this will be looking at criminal activity"
Babs can really work herself up sometimes, especially when an ox she supports gets gored. Oh, show'em some rightous indignation Babs. Unfortunately, Babs isn't consistent.
Recap: It's only a crime when Mizzzzzz Boxer says it is a crime. Otherwise not.
