Palin's email

The point of this whole "scandal" is nothing political. 4chan and such don't really care that much about politics. The point of the whole debacle (because it's a debacle and not any sort of scandal) is that YOU SHOULDN'T USE FUCKING YAHOO EMAIL FOR IMPORTANT SHIT because it's not an issue of if it will be hacked, but when it will be hacked.

Everyone who knows anything about computers and the internet (which definitely isn't Senator McCain and apparently not Governor Palin) should be standing up and pointing out that using a Yahoo account--with a published address (she DID use it as a press contact)--is asking to get it hacked.

I have no sympathy for her, and I'm indifferent to those who hacked. You can't complain when you get what you're asking for.
