Everything I've read shows that there was nothing worth reading in the emails. | Do you need proof of air before you breathe? Kind of joking but you are over-analyzing. |

State rep confirms that son is subject of Palin e-mail chatter
By THEO EMERY • Staff Writer • September 18, 2008
State Rep. Mike Kernell confirmed Thursday that his son, a University of Tennessee-Knoxville student, is at the center of heated Internet discussion into the hacking of the personal e-mail of vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin.
Kernell, a Memphis Democrat, confirmed that it is his 20-year-old son, David, who is being widely named on Internet blogs and chatrooms in connection with an unfolding story about Palin's hacked e-mail accounts.
The FBI and the Secret Service started a formal investigation on Wednesday into the hacking.
David Kernell is a student at the University of Tennessee-Knoxville. Mike Kernell said he spoke to his son on Thursday, as he does on a regular basis.
Kernell otherwise declined to comment, or discuss his son’s whereabouts.

Palin and Yahoo Mail
Gov. Sarah Palin's e-mail habit of using a private account to communicate with aides echos the worst practices of the Bush administration, says one expert.
(ABCNews Photo Illustration) |
Shrubs administration used email provided by the RNC. I should be able to find something more on that,
About Token:
Interviews show that Ms. Palin runs an administration that puts a premium on loyalty and secrecy. The governor and her top officials sometimes use personal e-mail accounts for state business; dozens of e-mail messages obtained by The New York Times show that her staff members studied whether that could allow them to circumvent subpoenas seeking public records.
....
While Ms. Palin took office promising a more open government, her administration has battled to keep information secret. Her inner circle discussed the benefit of using private e-mail addresses. An assistant told her it appeared that such e-mail messages sent to a private address on a “personal device” like a BlackBerry “would be confidential and not subject to subpoena.” Ms. Palin and aides use their private e-mail addresses for state business. A campaign spokesman said the governor copied e-mail messages to her state account “when there was significant state business.”
On Feb. 7, Frank Bailey, a high-level aide, wrote to Ms. Palin’s state e-mail address to discuss appointments. Another aide fired back: “Frank, this is not the governor’s personal account.”
Mr. Bailey responded: “Whoops~!”
Mr. Bailey, a former midlevel manager at Alaska Airlines who worked on Ms. Palin’s campaign, has been placed on paid leave; he has emerged as a central figure in the trooper investigation.
So it seems there could be more to this than just using a Yahoo account for official business, seems Token could have other reasons for using the Yahoo account.

| | I use my own Cypher all the time to send emails back and forth to friends. It is something that we have been doing since High school and it has just stuck.
Of course, it has been tweaked as we grew up, but I am sure with enough patience it could be cracked.
She could have done something similar.  |

Nothing. No govt business, no secrets, nothing. If you want to read them, you can look around and find the rapidshare links. I'd start at the source if I were interested. |

Nothing?
I guess you don't count : dozens of e-mail messages obtained by The New York Times show that her staff members studied whether that could allow them to circumvent subpoenas seeking public records. and An assistant told her it appeared that such e-mail messages sent to a private address on a “personal device” like a BlackBerry “would be confidential and not subject to subpoena.”
This doesn't tell you Token is trying to operate under the radar?
If so you once again illustrate how Rightie is going to believe what Rightie wants to believe. |

The point now is that Palin is using a private mail address (Yahoo) to conduct Government Business in order to avoid there being a public record.
Pretty shady. |

Since you don't deny the doing government business on private accounts, or the subverting public record and subpoena issue, I guess these things must be true. Quote: |

It has been my experience that personal emails with colleagues can easily and quickly turn into business related emails. IOW, it's easy for me to rationalize the forward-all-state-email rule as the only effective way to keep herself out of trouble, for lack of a better phrase. If there was a more effective method, I'd expect employers to punish employees who send and receive NSFW emails instead of just send.

And, no shortcomings here. Sorry Markie. How's the basement today anyway? | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Rate This Thread | Linear Mode | |
