Sarah Palin Yahoo account hacked

Sarah Palin Yahoo account 2008 - Wikileaks
Come for the lulz, stay for the uncomfortable feeling that perhaps hacking email because you are able to might possibly be worse than using private email accounts for government business. Seriously, though, it takes some kind of stupid to use an email service like Yahoo!/MSN/Gmail for anything other than one-off membership signups. It takes some seriously kind of stupid to conduct government business [allegedly] on one of these account. Sure, the thought of end-running open document and transparency laws has some allure for the politician with something to hide, but security through obscurity never ever pays in the end.
Caveat: It has not been proven beyond a reasonable doubt that Sarah Palin has used private email for public business, but there are some pretty damning allegations that she has. Further, from what I saw, nothing in the b/tards’ dump approaches any kind of smoking gun. Then again, I glanced at this while at work.

David Foster Wallace found dead
Green Party activist Peter Camejo dies at 68
To round things up, I overheard someone this weekend say that Hunter S. Thompson has to regret his suicide as the current election cycle was tailor made for him. It is a shame he’s not here now because I think it is finally getting weird enough for me.
