And you KNOW that she used it to hide official business, right? Has there been ANY such allegation? No there hasn't. If such an allegation comes forward, then fine, investigate. But no one has the right to go trolling through someone else's private e-mail for no reason. If the cops came into your house with no warrant, and no suspicion of any wrong-doing, they'd be violating your rights. This is exactly the same thing. This argument that it's wrong to use private e-mail in that way is an obfuscation, and nothing more. No wrongdoing has been alleged, and as such, no one has the right to go through her e-mail like this.

I find the lack of outrage at the act, and the displacement of the argument back at Palin for allegedly doing something wrong when no one has made any such accusation, just horrible. What these perps did is illegal. It's a violation of Alaska state law (punishable by up to 2 years) AND a violation of federal law (up to 5 years). These clowns should be found, prosecuted, and put in jail. Palin's ideology should have NO bearing on this AT ALL. You disagree with her? Fine. But that doesn't in any way make what happened here ok by any stretch of the imagination. The outrage should be the same no matter if it happened to Obama or to Palin.
