Sarah Palin emails provide no big bombshells
Politico ^ | 6/10/2011 | MOLLY BALL

Posted on 06/10/2011 7:31:30 PM PDT by tobyhill

Reporters lined up in Juneau and in front of computers across the country spent the afternoon poring over 24,000 newly released emails from Sarah Palin’s first year and a half as governor, hoping for a bombshell.

Many of the emails deal with the mundane business of government. Others show her corresponding with aides, admirers and members of her administration about everything from her views on dinosaurs to fisheries policy.

They show her acknowledging encouraging notes from constituents who hope John McCain will pick her as the running mate, as well as startlingly nasty hate mail and death threats. Palin herself is intensively involved in dealing with the press, monitoring her image and complaining about unfair treatment long before she became a national figure known for diatribes against the “lamestream media.”

Her tight-knight gubernatorial staff was put on the defensive when she was picked for the 2008 GOP ticket and national reporters swarmed the surprise new political celebrity, the emails show. There’s even an unsolicited note from Newt Gingrich among the flurry of email traffic between Palin and her advisers looking for ways to respond to the media inquiries that ran from the comprehensive to the unusual.

Secret Service is reported to maintain a file of up to 400,000 individuals who have threatened to murder Presidents, Senators, Congressmen, government bureaucrats, etc., or who have actually tried it and gotten caught.

There's undoubtedly some duplication between the Secret Service file and what we can now call the Sarah file.

I don't know how many threats there were, but lets say 20% might have been. That'd give us about 5,000 of them.

We need that LIST.

Several reasons for that with the first being that the Secret Service does not reveal the names on its own list. This would be a good start on making that list public ~ no reason only the body guards for the politicians should know who is a potentially very dangerous mad dog killer.

We could extend that to other state lists by requesting their Governors to release just the threatening letters and emails.

There is nothing in the emails for the DNC owned media to use against her.

Now Liberals are upset the emails have been released.

Anderson Cooper just asked, ‘is there any AMMUNITION to use against Sarah Palin’?

Wow....and they were upset at her for using land survey targets ...

Yes, yes, but that’s just code for “Let’s send all the liberals to labor camps and make them listen to Conway Twitty.” Don’t you see? Don’t you SEE??!??

everything from her views on dinosaurs to fisheries policy

Didn't that knucklehead Krauthammer suggest that Palin is not "schooled in policy"?

What a twit!! The only policy he's had to deal with is what kind of suit he should wear as he bloviates on Fox.

Next it’ll be the emails show she’s too close to her staff. Doesn’t understand the need to compartmentalize sensitive info.
And since they didn’t find anything that’ll sure show she’s politically naive and unable to cross swords with those who’ll do anything to get ahead. Just watch.

You know why they hate that part...because it exposes yet another media lie. It hasn’t been the Tea Party or Sarah Palin stirring up hatred for others, but the exact opposite. The media and the leftists have stirred up so much irrational mob hatred of Palin and the Tea Party that she got death threats and vile hate mail almost every single day after she was picked as McCain’s VP and it hasn’t let up since!

AND NOW THEY HAVE THE NERVE TO WORRY ABOUT THREATS TO THEIR OWN LYNCH MOB FROM THOSE OF US WHO SUPPORT AND WILL PROTECT HER FROM THEIR ASSASSINS?!

PURE INSANITY GOING ON IN OBAMA’S APPARACHIKS IN THE MEDIA!GAME ON!!

She has no ties to DC cronyism, or either party's crooks, ringmasters or the good ol' boy Senate clubs, so she's hated.
