What’s wrong with using personal e-mail for state business? A million reasons, but a couple of very obvious ones: – First, she does it for the express reason of avoiding subpoenas for public records (a highly dubious and frankly, misinformed attempt to avoid legal public information disclosure requirements – her attorney must be as naive as she is); second – Yahoo is not secure – anyone who has worked for any business, even Jiffy-lube, knows the importance of internet security – but apparently not Sarah Palin – the fact they were able to hack her account so easily merely confirms that she is not qualified to be trusted with matters of national security – were her yahoo account only truly personal items then it would not be any big deal, BUT she not only used it for official business, but was expressly requiring others to use if for her most politically sensitive government and RNC business. Your average 8th grader would know not to put truly confidential info at such risk. This is truly naive behavior. Finally, I would not be surprised if it did not violate Alaska State Government internet usage rules and other rules concerning conduct of official business, if Alaska even is savvy enough to have promulated such rules as most other states have.
