Here's a blog post from MSNBC regarding Palin emails
Edited on Sat Jun-11-11 11:15 AM by titaniumsalute
Palin and her group are real assholes...

6:25 p.m. AT (10:25 ET): When the Alaska Legislature appointed investigator Stephen Branchflower to look into possible ethics violations by Gov. Palin's role in the "Troopergate" case, the Palin administration's response was to spread rumors about his wife to attack his credibility. In a series of emails on Aug. 1, 2008, the governor and her aides discussed how to respond to the inquiry. The conversation is heavily censored. The current governor's office withheld most of the e-mail thread. But the progression is clear. It starts with the subject line, "Fw: Branchflower," with questions posed by the Anchorage Daily News, which asked whether the Palin administration's planned to cooperate with the investigation. The content is mostly marked "Privileged or Personal Material Redacted." Then Palin changed the subject line to "Re: Fairness?: Branchflower." We can't see what the governor wrote. Then the governor changed the subject line again, to "Re: MRS.: Fairness?: Branchflower," with this message from her Blackberry and her Yahoo account gov.sarah@yahoo.com: "Just got another call about Mrs. Blanchflower having retired after working FOR Walt at APD and the conflict involved there." Walt is apparently Monegan, whom she dismissed in a dispute that began with Palin family difficulties with a state trooper who was Palin's former brother-in-law. Press aide Sharon Leighow replies, "I dropped all sorts of questions about linda," referring to Branchflower's wife, "... license lasping ... Walt association etc." Palin replied again from her Blackberry, "Thank u." That email thread is in this PDF file.

2. Yup
Everything is edited, redacted. She just tries to erase history. Just like her asshole aides trying to change Wikipedia last week about the Paul Revere Ride stuff she spewed.
