Palin’s Illegally-Used Stealth E-Mail Account Hacked

As reported on Sunday in the New York Times, since becoming Governor of Alaska Sarah Palin has been conducting government business via an “outside private e-mail account.” This is both dangerous and illegal.

Ms. Palin and aides use their private e-mail addresses for state business. A campaign spokesman said the governor copied e-mail messages to her state account “when there was significant state business.”On Feb. 7, Frank Bailey, a high-level aide, wrote to Ms. Palin’s state e-mail address to discuss appointments. Another aide fired back: “Frank, this is not the governor’s personal account.”Mr. Bailey responded: “Whoops~!” 

Well, someone just hacked gov.palin@yahoo.com:

Welcome to the internet age, McCain-Palin. We are supposed to trust this person and self-described ‘computer illiterate’ John McCain with the national security of the United States?
