Blast from the past: Gov. Sarah Palin used private emails to hide government-business.

Did the internet just cause Sarah Palin to destroy evidence? The potential Veep is in a bit of trouble for conducting state business using her personal, unarchived email address ([e-mail]) instead of her official account (which is, of course, subject to laws requiring the retention of government records). Emails from that Yahoo account are already being sought in connection with the Troopergate investigation.

John McCain has caught his share of flak for not knowing his way around e-mail. But as his running mate has been discovering over the past week, being a bit too clever with e-mail has its pitfalls as well. As Sarah Palin seeks to beat back charges that she improperly used her position as governor to urge the firing of her estranged brother-in-law, an Alaska state trooper, internal documents suggest that her staff may have hoped to channel sensitive correspondence through unofficial personal e-mail accounts to evade potential subpoenas.

And her account WAS hacked and posted online.






But her emails!

2. Don't forget Rove and the Bush White House!!!!

Bush’s people deleted emails on purpose to obstruct the Abramoff federal investigation.

But HIS emails!


It is ludicrous that Rove used a private email server first, and did worse things, and no one knows.

It shows Hillary was right. There is a vast right wing conspiracy. And it’s propped up by billionaire funding and a rightwing propaganda machine that controls our public discourse.

3. Being a member of the

gop, the young man who hacked her e-mails spent time in prison. Not worth it for a total air head like $arah PayMe. The PayMe family committed purgery at the trial, too. The eldest daughter, the one with several illegitimate kids, said she was terrified at her parents house, alone. The Secret Service was guarding them at the time. Not to mention the daddy of one of her babies was in the house with her. He is a qualified gun handler.
