A year later, public still waits for requested Palin e-mails
Source: Anchorage Daily News

Public records requests made more than a year ago for Sarah Palin's e-mails still haven't been filled by the state, and the Alaska Democratic Party chairwoman alleges it's an attempt to bury the past.
"I think they're hiding something, I think this is a travesty of justice," state Democratic Party Chairwoman Patti Higgins said Wednesday. "The law says they have 10 days to do it."

Public records in Alaska are generally supposed to be provided within 10 days, although the state can extend the deadline for more complicated requests.
State officials say this is no cover-up, but rather a case of massive requests that have overwhelmed the state's resources. Assistant Attorney General David Jones said the 11 largest public-records requests from last year remain unfilled; most of them, he said, require the review of between 2,900 and 30,000 documents.

2. my guess is most people are asking for the same thing so to say it is taxing them is ridiculous

Copy off the entire collection and send them out. If people only requested one email, they can pull it out and stare at the lone page.

Gawd, no wonder Alaska government is so corrupted by idiots. Palin fit right in.

Ridiculous.


This is a cover-up. No doubt about it.

4. Typical Republicon OCCULTISM
Everything they do is hidden, for everything they do would be revealed as skanky in the light of day.

5. E-Mail Is Not A Document
It is not complicated. It is an electronic form and filters can be easily set to narrow the material down to what the request specifies. They should be able to do that in about 10 minutes so something else is at stake, like covering somebody's behind such as "Saint" Sarah.

8. Of course Sarah's hiding her emails.
She doesn't want to go to jail.
