Sarah Palin's Secret Emails (security, Obama, political, terrorist)

[blacknight04]

The Palin administration won't release hundreds of emails from her office, claiming they cover confidential policy matters. Then why do the subject lines refer to a political foe, a journalist, and non-policy topics?


Halcro asked, "why in the world is Todd Palin getting copied on emails [about me] that his wife's administration is classifying as confidential....These emails should be released to the public....after all Todd Palin has no standing to claim executive privilege. By including him in the email loop, the Palin administration has arguably breached any claim of executive privilege." And McLeod wonders, "What do emails about Andrew Halcro have to do with policy deliberations?"

The fact that Palin and her aides shared these emails with a citizen outside the government undercuts the claim that they must be protected under executive privilege. McLeod asks, "What is Sarah Palin hiding?"

What does her hubby have to do with confidential policy matters?

I hope all the lies she has been telling come out sooner than later.

BK2 I can't agree more. I smell a rat.

Are you all for real?

She IS a GOVERNOR who is privy to confidential information!

Terrorist issues and things of that nature does go to a Gov.

Sheesh people!

[eastguy]

Obama too should release all his email, state senator records

I agree with you to a point. On all things of the nature you mentioned, sure classify away and no one should say a word.

Emails that her husband received/sent and that she did that have nothing to do with security issues and the like are a different matter.

Her hubby is not running for office so his emails should not be public anyways.

Well I happen to agree with you right until it comes to the fact that she's making them state business by classifying emails to/from him is she not?
