Was the
hacking of Sarah Palin’s e-mail account a political “dirty trick?”
This explanation that was TOO quickly forthcoming has raised Flap’s political radar.
Watch the video below and see how quickly FAR LEFT attorney Gloria Allred BLAMES Sarah Palin for conducting government business on her private e-mail account. Of course, this is not true but this argument was a quick diversion, no? What about the outrage for Palin’s invasion of privacy in this ordeal?
Legal Panel looks at hacker’s invasion of Governor palin’s e-mail account
Remember the Democrat Party’s involvement with Maryland Republican Lt. Governor and Republican Senate candidate Michael Steele?
SENATOR CHUCK SCHUMER had just finished his last sputtering of outrage at the nomination of John Roberts to the Supreme Court when news broke that the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, which he chairs, had a small problem. Newsday and the New York Post both reported that the DSCC was in illegal possession of the credit report for Maryland’s Republican Lieutenant Governor Michael Steele. Two of Schumer’s staffers, Katie Barge and Lauren Weiner, used Steele’s Social Security number to fraudulently get his credit history.
Making this even more scandalous, it turns out that the DSCC had known about Barge and Weiner’s pilfering for over two months, having placed both on a paid suspension since early July, according to the Post. And yet no one gave any indication that the DSCC notified Michael Steele about the invasion of his privacy until this week. Given that federal statutes make the acquisition, distribution, acceptance, and even reading of this data without specific written authorization a federal crime, the theft should have resulted in no small amount of media attention.
And, federal charges were filed against Lauren Weiner to which she pled guilty.
Federal prosecutors have decided to bring charges against a Democratic researcher accused of fraudulently obtaining a credit report on Maryland Lt. Gov. Michael S. Steele, now a Republican candidate for U.S. Senate.
Lauren B. Weiner, who has since resigned from the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee in Washington, will be charged with obtaining the report without authorization, according to a letter sent to Steele by the U.S. attorney’s office in the District.
Whitney C. Ellerman, an attorney for Weiner, said his client plans to plead guilty to a misdemeanor under an agreement with prosecutors that could result in the charge being dismissed in a year.
There is a track record with Democrats doing this type of dumpster diving in order to illegally obtain politically embarassing information. The United States Secret Service needs to immediately investigate this matter.
Note how the Associated Press is not cooperating.
The Secret Service contacted The Associated Press on Wednesday and asked for copies of the leaked e-mails, which circulated widely on the Internet. The AP did not comply.
Maybe Nick Denton will…….
There is more to this story.
Stay tuned…….
