You were saying ...

Has anyone seen this mop-headed punk and Rabscuttle in the same room?

Ummmm..., is that like "Clark Kent" and "Superman" -- in that you never see them both at the same time in the same place ... LOL ...

Yep, could be the reason why David Kernell and Rabscuttle385 are never seen at the same time and in the same place ... :-)

Sorta looks like a fairy, too...

Sarah Palin tells court that email hacker disrupted campaign and personal life

Former economics student David Kernell faces up to 50 years in jail if convicted of hacking into email account

Sarah Palin today addressed the jury at the criminal trial of the man accused of hacking into her email account during the 2008 presidential election campaign.

Palin spent 45 minutes in the witness box in a federal court in Knoxville, Tennessee where David Kernell, 22, faces up to 50 years in prison if found guilty of four charges.

Palin told the court that the "disturbance" to her email had disrupted her personal and political life. "If the intent was to disrupt it, it was successful. It caused a huge disruption in the campaign," she said.

The prosecution alleges that Kernell, then an economics student at the University of Tennessee-Knoxville, broke into Palin's Yahoo! email account gov.palin in September 2008 by answering simple security questions. He gained the information from Google, including her date of birth, the postcode of her home, and where she had met her husband, Todd. He is accused of changing her password to "popcorn" and posting some of her email contents on the internet under the pseudonym "rubico".

I run into the same thing ... LOL ...

It's getting pretty bad... the freaks here on Free Republic (usually "Paultards") who hammer anyone who believes Palin is an excellent candidate for President (if she decides to run, of course ...), and then the "Romney-bots" who have been gunning for Palin from the moment she got on the 2008 GOP ticket, and the leftists and liberals who absolutely hate her ... it makes you wonder if any more can "pile on Palin" ... :-)

After the guy the Huckster paroled keyed the police officers on the west coast, a reporter asked Palin about her parole policies, she said, “I didn’t get many parole requests. Everyone knew how I feel about criminals.”

I was just looking at the link there... and I saw this one on that page ...

Pumas 4 Palin

LOL ...

My god! If PUMAs can support Sarah Palin, I don't know what's wrong with some of these "Paultards" and their backwards way of thinking....

I mean, come on... PUMAs were for Hillary Clinton (Obama stole the "process" away from Clinton, and those PUMAs are really against Obama) -- and they can support Sarah Palin.... that goes to show you about the Paultards, doesn't it?

Kernell's motive at heart of legal debate in case of hacking Palin's e-mail

By Jamie Satterfield, Knoxville News Sentinel

Updated April 20, 2010 at 11:36 p.m.

KNOXVILLE — His roommate's reaction when a former University of Tennessee student announced he was trying to finagle his way into the private e-mail account of then vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin? Fat chance.

"He was trying to figure out the answer to one of her (password) security questions," David Omiecinski testified Tuesday of ex-roommate David Kernell of Germantown. "I was kind of taken aback, first, to think he would be able to do it, and, second, I didn't figure he'd be trying to do something like that."

Omiecinski was the first witness to take the stand in a trial that is expected to feature the testimony later this week of Palin, her husband and her daughter.

Kernell was a 20-year-old economics major at UT in September 2008. That's when he read a story about the possibility that Palin, then Alaska governor and running mate to Republican U.S. Sen. John McCain, was funneling gubernatorial business through a private Yahoo! e-mail account to avoid public scrutiny.

The son of longtime state Rep. Mike Kernell, D-Memphis, and a self-described "Obamacrat," David Kernell decided to see if he could access the account. The reason forms the crux of the legal debate framed in U.S. District Court on Monday by opposing sides that, earlier that day, had selected a group of six women and eight men from East Tennessee to serve as a 12-person jury with two alternates.

Federal prosecutor Mark Krotoski told jurors Kernell's motive was political.

"The evidence will show the defendant hoped to derail the (Republican presidential) campaign," Krotoski said.

Defense attorney Wade Davies countered that Kernell was merely being curious and never believed a prominent political figure like Palin would use a poorly protected Yahoo! account.

"This is a case about a prank, not a crime," Davies said. "The evidence will show he acted out of curiosity."

Omiecinski told jurors Kernell didn't like Palin's politics but "never wanted to hurt her."

Omiecinski was trying to go to sleep inside the Commons apartment he shared with Kernell and two other UT students when, just after midnight, he heard a knock on his bedroom door.

"It was David," he said. "He told me to come to his room to check this stuff out."

His computer screen was opened to an Internet page used to change the password on a Yahoo! account and a Wikipedia page on Palin. Omiecinski is a computer science major who rated Kernell's computer skills as typical of a game-playing college student.

He said he was shocked to later learn that Kernell had actually managed to reset Palin's password and posted "screenshots" of some of the contents of the account onto the 4chan Internet discussion board.

According to opening statements and initial testimony, once Kernell accessed Palin's account, he used a proxy service to try to conceal his own Internet identity, took computer photographs of the inbox page and two e-mails and copied photographs contained in the account onto his own desktop.

Krotoski told jurors that Kernell posted those screenshots onto 4chan, along with the new password he created for the account, to boast of his exploits and to allow others to peruse the account.

Davies countered that 4chan users belittled Kernell and his claims of accessing the account so he posted the screenshots to prove himself, an action he immediately regretted.

Davies was careful in opening statements not to declare Kernell innocent.

"The bottom line is this is a case of a 20-year-old college student who did something he shouldn't have done," he said.

But Davies contends that federal authorities slapped Kernell with four major felonies, including identity theft and wire fraud, solely because Palin is the alleged victim. He is urging jurors to affix Kernell with what he says is the more appropriate conviction -- a misdemeanor unauthorized computer access.

Their just baiting you, rabs, we all know you’ve never condoned any of the MSM silly jabs against Palin. There’s plenty to question without going there. But some people on the ‘right’ just can’t help playing the same dishonest game.

KILL THAT MESSENGER!!! LIE about him if you have to!

Sheesh.

It's a lot nicer than being a shill for a blame America first lunatic.

It's attitudes like yours that split the base, got us stuck with McCain, and allowed the Obama trainwreck to happen.
