As you all know, the second it was found that Sarah's email was hacked, Kos came out and smacked down all those who might want to gloat about it. Rightly so. Privacy, if you read some of my past rants, is a huge issue with me...and you know what? Throw the book at the hacker... 'Some say' it just might be a scary democrat operative who has the skillz (threat level red!) to hack free webmail accounts! Well whatever.. but just like we don't need GOP crooks, we don't need ones in our party either! I hold the USA above party.
However, I want to get in front of this massively disproportionate outrage monster clumsily lumbering in our general direction.
I'd just like to say, "Thanks but no thanks" to your "Bridge to Linking this to the Obama Campaign". Yeah I'm talking to you O'Really and Malkin!
Also...you know what? For you to ask me to waste precious time and breath caring about this scandal assumes that I should ignore the absolute indecency and violation we are currently experiencing daily from the following public officials....
You feel compromised Sarah? How's this for feeling compromised?
Like let's start with your gang of Alaskan politicos current debacle:
McCain-Palin spokesman Ed O'Callaghan said Thursday that Todd Palin no longer believes the Legislature's investigation is legitimate.
**cough** WHAT!?! This sets a tone right away that shows you will breach our laws at will.
The Fed, after de-regulating everything compromising our economic future and safety now are mining our pockets for tax to bail out billionaires.
A grim-faced President Bush acknowledged risks to taxpayers in what would be the most sweeping government intervention to rescue failing financial institutions since the Great Depression. But he declared, "The risk of not acting would be far higher."
Oh btw.. its a..
[..] radical bailout plan with a jawdropping price tag — a takeover of a half-trillion dollars or more in worthless mortgages and other bad debt held by tottering institutions.
OH REAHEHEHEAAALLLY now. I feel hacked. In fact, I feel violated. Your party just raised my taxes to pay for your borrow and spend ultra-supply-side economics. Has anybody asked a Republican if they feel victimized yet? What's the latest poll on his approval anyway?
And heck...Todd may be "my Guy!" but your other 'guy' McCain may be the seed of these problems being part of the Keating 5 scandal:
Keating expected his largesse to be rewarded, and when federal regulators began looking into Lincoln's questionable lending practices and investments in the late 1980s, he turned to five senators whose coffers he had lined — Alan Cranston of California, Donald Riegle of Michigan, John Glenn of Ohio and both Arizona senators, Dennis DeConcini and McCain.
McCain attended two meetings with regulators at Keating's request. McCain's view was that he was seeking information on behalf of a constituent who was an important employer in his state. The regulators' view was that they were being pressured to act favorably for Keating.
How is this for being transgressed? Foley gets off scot-free from any responsibility for his browsing of his teen pages for his own gratification. From CNN:
"FDLE conducted as thorough and comprehensive investigation as possible considering Congress and Mr. Foley denied us access to critical data," Bailey said in a written statement. "Should additional information arise which is pertinent to this case, we will ensure it is appropriately investigated."
I feel sick.
Letting this guy off scott free, jeopardizes the safety of children and blasts the integrity of the firewall between these kids and predators like these.
So with these gut wrenching, very current and alarming incidences on our minds making us lose sleep at night, I just have to say: I'll start thinking about your hacked email account after you start saying you'll revoke the FISA law. Say you will repair the infringement and the trespass on our rights and restore our 4th amendment if elected then I might give a fleeting thought to your unsecured yahoo account.
