There is something incredibly creepy and unseemly about all this. The NYT and WaPo have given up any pretense of being news organizations as they enlist their readers to help dig up dirt. Salon even has a live blog going on as people try to high-tech witch-hunt this woman. Did any of you libs yell for Obama's emails when he was senator? Hmm?

Toast? Maybe, most likely not.

Any elected official with a minimum of sense isn't going to put anything incriminating in writing and then save it, especially when the delete button is so handy.

Over the last several years I have amassed several thousand official emails which can be subpoenaed and none of them would be incriminating or have any smoking gun. Same with my professional emails.

I also saw several phone numbers that weren't redacted. I don't know what the process was regarding redaction in this case, but since portability was introduced to the assignment of phone numbers, I think people identify more strongly with their phone numbers than they have done in earlier decades, so I think this should have been a concern of the Alaskan government.

Sarah Palin emails provide no big bombshells - Molly Ball - POLITICO.com

Sarah Palin emails provide no big bombshells

Quote:
Reporters lined up in Juneau and in front of computers across the country spent the afternoon poring over 24,000 newly released emails from Sarah Palin’s first year and a half as governor, hoping for a bombshell.

But none immediately emerged.
Another punch in the kisser, egg on the face of the "lamestream" media and the Left.

The PDSer's were licking their chops......and they come up with ZERO.

This is what people DON'T GET she is a "Private Citizen". If they can do this to her, what can they do to us!!

Wow, did it get quiet in here or what? Only thing that's maybe toast is this thread.



Oh, here is one that the left can take a crack at:

"She doesn't belong to the NRA to support the right of each citizen to have weapons in an aim of self-defence, but just to support the right of every Southern white citizen to shoot all non-white people legally!" wrote the sender, identified as Dominique Villacrouz. "Sarah Palin MUST BE KILLED!"

Sarah Palin emails: Palin fielded death threats as campaign heated up - latimes.com

Jeez, the left is completely unhinged.

Why do you say that? Are you assuming there's something wrong or improper in them? I know Dems are always doing that sort of thing, but you do know that not everyone does.

Or are you declaring her guilty before any proof.
