It Is Nobody's Business What Is In Sara Palin's Private E-Mail, Shame On You That Read It


We all use e-mail and there is a reasonable expectation of privacy that our mail is private, we all should be outraged to learn that someone hacked into Republican V.P. Candidate Sara Palin's Yahoo e-mail account.

Yesterday I noticed this story as it was breaking and made a decision not to post anything about it at the time because the early reports were publishing images from Gov. Palin's account---shame on anyone that re-publishes images from Sara Palin's private e-mail account. None of you would want your private mail displayed for the world to see.

Hacking into someones e-mail account is a criminal offense and I am very pleased to learn that the FBI and U.S. Secret Service are now investigating this matter. We all should hope that the privacy violators are soon arrested and appear before a Federal Magistrate for Arraignment.
