Man! Talk about sleazy! Leave it to the left to do something this heinous.I'm looking forward to the perp walk:
"We are aware of the allegations and we are coordinating with Secret Service as far as the allegation that someone has hacked into Governor Palin's personal e-mail account," he said. "We are going to be working a joint investigation with Secret Service on this."The left can try and tear her down by putting her life under a microscope, violating her privacy to do it (I guess they just threw out their whole argument about the government violating our privacy -- we should be more concerned with lefty hackers) but they aren't going to help Obama by doing it. Most of us would sympathize with the victim and look at this as a violation because of her political views.Brian Hale, an FBI spokesman in Washington, also confirms the FBI has been contacted about the incident. Two federal law enforcement sources say the FBI and Secret Service would have concurrent jurisdiction normally on a matter such as this, but it remains to be seen if the Secret Service will take the lead on the investigation because Palin is a protectee.

When will the left resort to assassination to get its way? That's a felony, too.
If Palin has a PC in once place and a laptop in another, it makes a lot of sense to me why she would use a yahoo account. If she downloaded emails to both places...they'd be scattered.
She the governor of Alaska, not running a mom-and-pop. Are you saying that they can't get an email system that allows her to access her office email while she's on her laptop? This isn't 1985. You can actually get email systems that allow for remote access.
It's unfortunate her mail got hacked, but it also shows how either hopelessly inept or naive she is to think that a yahoo account, for heaven's sake, was an appropriate and safe place for confidential business email.
Maybe she should have to pay herself for the investigation into this "violation". Like she ensured that Alaskan women who truly were "violated" had to pay for their own rape investigations.
Hacking into Palin's email

"It's not cute, funny, righteous, or justifiable in any way. This is just as odious as the gross violations that spurred the FISA battle. I hope whoever hacked into her email gets caught and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
At least one Republican personally knows how it feels to have someone look into her private communications without proper cause or approval. It would be nice if that spurred a renewed conservative embrace of privacy issues and support for those key Constitutional principles designed to protect us from the tyranny of government.
But I won't hold my breath."
Why is Sarah Palin entitled to privacy when us average joes aren't?
