No. There used to be a time when conservatives had standards, sadly that’s been thrown out the window to satisfy the McCain machine. McCain wins the GOP nomination with 30% of the vote and FR falls right in line.

This wasn’t a case of Sarah Palin being the victim. She took unnecessary stupid risks with official Alaska business. What if instead of loony left “hackers” got into her account, terrorists got into it? How many state secrets could they have had access to? Especially with a quick request for sensitive information.

Look at it this way, you read in the newspaper that somebody was robbed in a bad section of town, and the thieves got away with $500,000 in cash. You feel sorry for the victim, but you have to question the victim’s judgment for walking around unprotected with that much cash. If something is important to you, you don’t take those risks.

Please describe the “business” she was conducting.

Exactly. You can’t.

Save the drama.

Nothing is safe.

Nothing.

Proof is in the reported hacking of numerous US government sites, denial of service attacks, loss/misplacement of US government and state government laptops, hard drives and electronic materials over the past couple decades.

No electronic system is 100% safe. Never has and never will be. The scum of the Earth will always find ways to break the law.

And, if I weren't a moral relativist, I would probably also find a way to muster some condemnation of the thieves as well.
