Why does it look like we're falling for the Email ruse?

[Joe the Revelator]

We do understand that this McCains attempt to focus back on "our Sarah" instead of our economy, right? It's a non-issue and shouldn't be given bandwith.

[mak3cats]

1. I agree wholeheartedly...(n/t)

[blueclown]

2. this is right from the gop playbook

karl rove did something very much like this in the 1986 texas gubernational race between clemmons and white.

[DontTreadOnMe]

3. I heard her password was...

turdblossom

[thewiseguy]

8. I personally dont give a fuck what her password was

I care more about people losing their jobs and this economy going to ruins

[complain jane]

4. I'm not even paying attention to it. Sounds stupid.

[elocs]

5. The whole Palin thing has been distraction and misdirection.

Why shouldn't we fall for the newest dumbass thing?

[terrya]

6. Who's this "we"?

[Joe the Revelator]

14. I've got a mouse in my pocket

Us

[A-Schwarzenegger]

15. A feller & his hamster.

:* :redbox:

[bemildred]

17. Indeed, what is this "we" shit?

And why can't "we" focus on any damn thing we like?

[Joe the Revelator]

21. Because "we" need to focus on what matters, instead of getting baffled with bullshit.

[bemildred]

24. Then why the hell are you bothering us? nt

[Joe the Revelator]

25. What are you talking about?

[bemildred]

26. You said you need to focus on things that matter instead of getting baffled with bullshit.

So why are you bothering us?

[Joe the Revelator]

28. Speaking of baffeling with bullshit...

I have no idea what point you're trying to make here.

[bemildred]

29. Then we are even. nt

[bemildred]

30. .

[Joe the Revelator]

31. Good game.

:butt slap:

[bemildred]

33. Well, the thing is this ...

If focus on Palin's emails is a bad thing, then all these posts about that are a bad thing too, eh? So you are exacerbating the problem you purport to be protesting against?

[Joe the Revelator]

34. I've made this argument a lot in the past, and I agree with you

I was frustrated after signing in and see the front page covered with Palin email threads. In my defense, mine was a drop in the ocean.

[bemildred]

35. Well, I can sympathize with that. nt

[brentspeak]

19. I think most people aren't falling for it

[AlCzervik]

7. the economy is not going away, the email story imo is only interesting because

Palin uses yahoo email to conduct state business.

[renie408]

9. Because people keep starting threads about it? n/t

[progressiveforever]

10. Don't believe it...won't believe it...no Dem did it

Wolsh is right

[WinkyDink]

11. I admit to wanting to read them! "Todd, you better not have LOL'ed at that mean Fey person!"

[Overseas]

12. No we are not FALLING FOR anything. Anonymous did the hacking. Not us.

And compared to official Republican attempts to suppress Democratic voter turnout and disenfranchise Democrats,
a little hacking from someone outside the party is NOTHING. NOT IMPORTANT. NO BIG DEAL.

[KathieG]

13. I'm not buying it...the emails are much too wholesome

[Marsala]

16. Nobody is falling for it

It's just a minor blip against the much larger collapse of Wall Street.

[Orsino]

18. Falling for what, exactly?

Palin effed this up by her own bad self. I, for one, am glad that Alaskans are being reminded that their guv was conducting official business on freakin' Yahoo.

And so close to Russia, too.

[mvd]

20. It's a non-issue for us

If anything it makes Palin's judgment look bad. I read here that it was just an internet hacking group.

[WindRiverMan]

22. Who cares. If she is stupid enough to conduct business on a fucking Yahoo account,

she gets what she deserves. This is a non-issue and not our fault. It's HER fault for being an idiot.

[JoFerret]

23. Sarah Palin = Red Herring

Everything about her is a distraction.
And of course it attracts because it IS a red herring and therefor sane people have to comment on how appalling/ ridiculous and etc her selection is/ was. and so we all get drawn in.
(Including me, now, it seems. Aaaargh!)

[NoSheep]

27. Agreed

[BlooInBloo]

32. It's actually a META-RUSE! It's not really a ruse, but they want you to THINK that it is!

KARL ROVE IS GAWD!!!!!

:rofl:

[WindRiverMan]

36. The entire world's financial system is in tatters

no one gives a fuck that Sarah is too stupid to use a government secured network. I vote non-issue.
