State Representative Mike Kernell, a Memphis Democrat, made a statement to the Tennessean in which he identified his son, David Kernell, as the hacker who broke in to vice-presidential candidate Sarah Palin’s email address and posted screenshots of the contents on the internet.
Mike Kernell represents District 93, which covers the University of Memphis, and parts of south-east Memphis. He told the Tennessean on Thursday that it was indeed his son David who, using the handle Rubico, posted the original screenshots of Governor Palin’s e-mail account after using Yahoo’s password recovery service and a bit of research to find out personal details about Palin and subsequently gain control of her password. The father refused to make any further comment, especially on the whereabouts of his son.
David Kernell, aged 20, is a student at the University of Tennessee-Knoxville. Using the handle Rubico, he made a post on the 4chan.org forums, in which he alleges that he is the one who is responsible for leaking Governor Palin’s e-mail inbox details online, and goes on to provide a believable account of how he did it.

Do it anyway.
Thugs like this are counting on being able to cow good Americans into submisstion. Hundreds of thousands of Americans have laid down their lives to guarantee the freedoms we all take for granted. Do not surrender your freedoms to some unshaven little twerp with anger-control issues.
If we don't stand up to this minor-league thuggery now, we will be in for much worse next year when Obama is President.
Happy to help... you're welcome! :o)
That’s right - Sprout a pair.
Or as she said on SNL, Mrs Clinton can lend you hers.
WASHINGTON — The political scuffle over Rep. William Jefferson's corruption charges appeared to be at a boiling point on Tuesday, a day after the nine-term congressmen was hit with 16 federal charges accusing him of using his political office to bribe businessmen and influence foreign officials.
Don’t blame 4chan, blame the idiot. For example, I just found this great rant on there:
How can a presidential candidate get away with treason? He can’t, unless he’s Obama.

“He asked why we were not prepared to delay an agreement until after the US elections and the formation of a new administration in Washington,” Zebari said in an interview...
Then, the American Spectator confirmed the allegations, and described the Obama campaigns headaches after Taheri’s column:
The three problems, according to campaign sources: The report was true, there were at least three other people in the room with Obama and Zebari to confirm the conversation, and there was concern that there were enough aggressive reporters based in Baghdad with the sources to confirm the conversation that to deny the comments would create a bigger problem...
In a long interview with the pan-Arab daily Asharq al-Awsat, Zebari says: “Obama asked me why, in view of the closeness of a change of administration, we were hurrying the signing of this special agreement, and why we did not wait until the coming of the new administration next year and agree on some issues and matters.”...
In other words, Obama was trying to derail current US policy, while Zebari was urging him not to “waste time.”
If McCain has a pair, he’ll be attending the debates with this card up his sleeve. As much as you and I loathe Bush, please recognize that if this is true, Barack Obama undermined the current administration to further his political ambitions. Anyone in reality knows Barry simply cares about being the one who history will say stood up and stopped the most unpopular war in American history. If Bush and the Iraqis draw up a withdrawal agreement before Obama takes office, all he’d be doing is carrying out the previously-agreed-upon-plan, and would hardly be credited with stopping the war.
My current No More Kerry sticker replaced two against illegal immigration. When I had those on, it seemed every white trade van that passed me on the highway did so very slowly, and there were no thumbs up from the occupants, just long stares.
“I’m concerned, since his father has money and connections, the 20 year old will get NO JAIL TIME!”
Commit crimes with no worries? It’s called the “Kennedy Phenomenon”.
That IS the solution: put a McCain/Palin sticker on an Obama-supporter’s vehicle and you’ve created a vote for McCain, after they get a 1st-hand taste of what their Obama-friends are REALLY like.
That's encouraging, but I'm still not holding my breath to see him behind bars.
We pick up a dear old retired liberal professor when we go to dialysis. He has an Obama sign in his yard. Today we noticed that somebody had driven over it. Made me laugh. I was thinking that that’s what’s going to happen to Obama, he’ll be steamrolled!
Sandy Burgler was exactly who I thought of when I read about who did this, and what might happen to him.
Me also. I live in leftist MA and know for sure the whack-job lefties would firebomb my house if they saw it. I am not sure it would do much good in the Peoples Republic of MA anyways considering the population is 80% Democrat.
Kernell Klink, reminds me of a TV Show character.
I’m in Maryland so I feel your pain. lol
No wonder Memphis is going to the dogs. Years ago it was only the thugs who would vote for liberals. Now they have infected the kids in the suburbs.
I have a “drill here, drill now” and a Nobama on mine.
(but I drive a piece of crap 94 VW)
Creating such fear sounds like domestic terrorism to me. And that goes all the way to the fear mongers who make the claim that there will be a race war if Obama loses.
And it goes all the way to Rep. Brazile who says we must “like” Obama because if we don’t, we are racists.
So how can they can any of us who voted for Keyes a racist, or who would glady vote for Sowell if he ran for president? How exactly do they define racism? Surely not based on whether we like someone or not based on his abilities which are nonexistent.
