Sarah Palin emails mostly confirm what was already known about the ex-governor

It was the bombshell that wasn't—at least it seems that way, so far.

On Friday afternoon, the state of Alaska finally released tens of thousands of Sarah Palin's emails dating back to her early days as the state's governor. News organizations had requested the emails nearly three years ago--just after Palin, then a virtual unknown, was picked to be John McCain's Republican running mate in the 2008 election.

But after long delays--partly administrative, partly foot-dragging on the part of Alaska officials--the emails were finally released to a media eager to find something, anything new about the most covered woman in national politics. Yet, so far, the more than 24,000 pages of emails--which are still being combed through by reporters--have mostly reinforced much of what we've already known about Palin.

Those are nuggets? You gotta be joking. Those are kitchen table topics. What a lame story.

The best line of the story is, “McCain tapped Palin”. That image scares the poop out of me.

Meanwhile the world is on fire.
The MSM knows nothing about it because they are looking into Sara.

Hide the sharp implements, pills and ropes (no need to worry about firearms as they would never own one) in the newsrooms of the major Far Left State-Run Media outlets and notify the suicide hot lines they are about to get busy, cuz it appears that their will shortly be many seriously depressed uber lib pseudo "Journ-0-Lists" who were hoping to find something on Sarah to put the [final] "nail in her coffin" they have been building for the past 3 years.

Tsk, tsk!

Better luck next time, Moonbats, but methinks you are running out of time and "ammo" and as we used to say (crudely) when I was younger: "You [already] blew your wad!" lol

Stick a fork in Sarah, she’s done.

I mean, she once met with an Elvis impersonator. High crimes and misdemeanors, indeed!

Don’t forget she said “sheesh” - which I think the media translates as some kind of hidden conservative codeword for “I want to blow up the planet and take away your facebook account.”

I SOOOO hope this blows up in the face of the scumbag media. Not only is there no THERE there, but people’s gut reaction (maybe even some liberals, though it’s hard for me to stretch the definition of “people” to include those morons) is that they don’t like people’s e-mail being rifled through... even the dreaded Palin’s.

(Uh, oh. I used the phrase “rifled through”... is that politically incorrect?).

She continues to make fools of the MSM. Here is yet another empty well they tried to exploit....but shame on them for this one. It is a new low.

Me, too. It appears they are calling for help in the frenzy to dig through the stacks of e-mails for dirt, which is amazing to me, considering she holds no public office and is in effect a private citizen.

Wow, do they ever fear her!

What do you you want to bet Obama’s emails, which will never be released, contain massive correspondence with terrorists like Bill Ayers.

Wow! This is as devastating as the Pentagon Papers or WikiLeaks! When will the lamestream media go looking for all of Mr. Soetoro’s papers from his short stint as an Illinois State Senator? The only evidence he was even there is his chair that was donated to a museum. How about travel records, correspondence, phone records, and meeting schedule for 1999 as a start? Trampoline? How about tramping around in a limo with Larry?

Sarah will be undeniably proved to be a good person, more than worthy to be president.

I think you are on to something.

The more they dig, the more the contrast to secret Barry will be, and if she runs she will have been “vetted” like no other person in recent history.

I’d love to see her mock them in some manner for this latest leap of desperation.
