Sarah Palin's Email Hacker

Something annoying is going on with blogger- posts I scheduled didn't get posted, posts I have written and published in real time haven't been published, and I am afraid they might all show up at once, or never show up at all, and I don't know which is worse. At any rate, I did already write this post and publish it once, but I am not finding it.


The person who stole Sarah Palin's Yahoo Identity and posted her 17 year old daughter's private contact information as well as other personal data is looking very much like the 17 year old son of a Tennessee Senator. YOu'll know which party he's from when I tell you that initial news accounts left out the party affiliation, always a giveaway that it's a Democrat. And he is.

Color me......

Very, very sorry for the father. A twenty year old college student can behave very stupidly all on his own, it doesn't have to be his father's fault. My sympathy will evaporate quicker than a water drop on a hot-cake ready skillet if he gives an apology laced with weasel word qualifiers (if, but...) or redirects the blame (if only Palin didn't have an email account...).

I almost felt sorry of the son, too, because I remember what it's like to be in college and impulsively get started on something really stupid and not stop to think it through until it's too late.

But then I remember that this 20 year old male published 17 year old Bristol's personal contact information on the internet.

Knox News says:
The break-in of Palin's private account is especially significant because Palin sometimes uses non-government e-mail to conduct state business. the Associated Press reported.

Er, no, it is especially significant because the son of a Democrat politician violated her privacy, posted private family photos and the personal cell phone number of a 17 year old girl who is potentially a target for unhinged members of the public to the web, and committed a felony in obtaining information that wasn't his to obtain. And there is no evidence that Palin conducted anything other than light administrative business on her Yahoo account, anyway. You can know this not only through reading what the Democrat's boy posted, but by the silence on this issue from the Media. They will talk about how bad it is that she conducted business via Yahoo, but they never specify exactly what and how- a dead give away that there is no 'there' there.

And it is significant as well because the AP, which screams bloody murder when a blogger posts any portion of one of their stories, also violated the family's privacy, reposted the writings of other people without their permission, posted the images of Palin's children illegally obtained and protected the identity of the criminal.
