Hacking Sarah Palin

OK, so somebody hacked into Sarah Palin's yahoo email account. I just saw a story in which the person charged with the crime is pleading not guilty.

I say, big deal. I can't be the only person who could have figured out that her password was "gwb4ever!" Anyone with a password that easy to figure out deserves to be hacked.

But at the risk of being accused of being a member of the liberal media elite, how come there are no stories following up on the crimes that the hacking documented? Namely, Palin was copying the Bush Administration's illegal technique of using private email addresses to avoid open records laws. Palin can call Obama a terrorist sympathizer, and the media repeats it ad nauseum. But we have clear evidence that Palin broke the law, and there's nary a peep.

Has GWB really succeeded in setting the bar on decency in public office so low that the multiple illegal acts commited by Palin (troopergate, receiving bribes while mayor, etc.) warrant no discussion? I am truly becoming scared for the future of our country.
