The Palin administration won’t release hundreds of emails from her office, claiming they cover confidential policy matters. Then why do the subject lines refer to a political foe, a journalist, and non-policy topics?

[snip]

Palin’s office claimed most of the undisclosed emails were exempt from release because they were covered by the “executive” or “deliberative process” privileges that protect communications between Palin and her aides about policy matters. But the subject lines of some of the withheld emails suggest they were not related to policy matters. Several refer to one of Palin’s political foes, others to a well-known Alaskan journalist. Moreover, some of the withhold emails were CC’ed to Todd Palin, the governor’s husband. Todd Palin—a.k.a. the First Dude—holds no official state position (though he has been a close and influential adviser for Governor Palin). The fact that Palin and her aides shared these emails with a citizen outside the government undercuts the claim that they must be protected under executive privilege. McLeod asks, “What is Sarah Palin hiding?”

confidential policy!?

How far off is the ‘classified’, ‘national security’ claim? After all, Alaska is right next to Russia.

One line: THE ANGRY LEFT??? REALLY.

Mushroom cloud.

End.

My undergrad was pr. we need visuals like that and very little words to reach the low information voter. That one could turn a few of them who feed on fear.

Man oh man Rove and his team can spin it

Still think the Obama campaign should do an add with Bush’s comments calling Dems “the angry left”. Would really like to see an add with seniors in nursing homes who will be voting for Obama Biden as the “angry left” You know those folks who have given up ownership of their homes any savings accounts etc to get long term care “the angry left”. Those folks in the assisted living facilities playing bingo “the angry left” Put Vets from WWII, Korea, Vietnam, Desert Storm who will be voting for Obama Biden as the “angry left”. The thinking Republicans who have abandoned their party as the “angry left”. Hockey and soccer moms “angry left”. Each time there could be a flash of Bush (let’s not let the MSM allow people to forget about him) saying the “angry left”

the 80% of Americans who believe we have been on the “wrong track” as the “angry left”.

will they get away with it? will the media let them? will the public swallow it?

When you think of 2 years and all that money for impeachment for Clinton, and how Repubs trying to sweep under rug/stonewall … ignore it full steam to election. Hubris.

Walt Monegan sounds like a decent guy. All she made was that innocent phone call. Like that innocent phone call she made to the librarian. Wish I had been a fly on the wall. “Would it be all right if you removed a few of your books?” I am sure Sarah didn’t see that as upsetting to anyone at all.

Talk about Groundhog Day.

Yes! Make it stop!
