"Palin's email practices as governor of Alaska are strikingly similar to the email practices of the White House"

For someone who claims to be a reformer and promises to change the ways of Washington, Sarah Palin has sure started off on the wrong foot.  Palin's email practices as governor of Alaska are strikingly similar to the email practices of the White House.

Alaska law, like federal law, requires all state agencies -- which includes the Governor’s Office -- to preserve public records that adequately document how they function do the business of the state.  AS 40.21.060.  Alaska law also requires each state agency to establish a records management program with controls over the creation, maintenance and use of records used in the conduct of current business, again mirroring the federal law.  And, like its federal counterpart, Alaska law defines “records” as including emails, which must be preserved as if they were paper records.

For Sarah Palin and her office this means that even if they are free to use outside email accounts to conduct state business -- which is far from clear -- they must still preserve those emails as public records documenting their functions, policies, decisions, etc.  But we know from emails that have leaked to the public that Sarah and her office are using outside email accounts precisely to avoid record preservation obligations.  Sound familiar?  It wasn’t that long ago we learned that top White House officials, including Karl Rove, were similarly using outside email accounts -- in their case accounts tied to the RNC -- to conduct government business but avoid leaving a paper trail.

 

Lets SEE, DID YOU

Lets SEE, DID YOU INVESTIGATE THE BOY David Kernell, son of Mike Kernell - Tennessee’s Democratic state representative.
ILLEGALLY, HACKED INTO HER PERSONAL EMAIL, CHANGED HER PASSWORD, NOOOOOO, IT IS NOT ON THIS SITE.
You know why, his father is Tennessee’s Democratic state representative.
Does this smell or what. Every article on this site is about repub, reported by a dem., or Obama fan. iF IT SMELLS LIKE A RAT, IT IS A RAT.

adding information

I write a non-political blog without any advertising. But there are many points that I think any intellectual person should read: A few are how the war in Iraq was actully started, entitled "A Presidents War" or another article on "Care of Health" But I do have an unusal abilty to see things beyond the media sees or anyone else sees, as I see beyond realism. I have the unusal brain to see things beyond the reality. I see things with beyond normal thinking, as I have the abilty to see beyond the natural ideas presented.

I even gave Syracuse University a one million dollars to create a couse on "Creative thinking." And my blog address is "logicalviews.com."

You may thank the folks at

You may thank the folks at Enron etc., for the electronic preservation laws. They are APPROPRIATE. You cannot (unless your name is Cheney) destroy, hide, manipulate, or otherwise interfer with business records. Having a "personal email account" in which you do business just sets you up for more intense investigation. Speaking again of Lord Cheney...wonder what HE is trying to hide!!!!!

Or she just has a personal email account and your an idiot

Or she just has a personal email account and your an idiot

Irony - can you smell it?

No, "you're" an idiot.

Delicious.

Palin is not fit to be VP, unless we want another Bushism

Mrs Lipsticks has another KO against her! The American citizen is not that stupid to advocate for McCain & Palin, they are out!
So, I hope people who are racists may overcome their fear and cast their vote for senator Obama. I believe and think, he is the best option we have right now, to save our nation!
And here the only idiot is.......... YOU guess!

Soooo....let me get this

Soooo....let me get this right, you are saying people that vote for MCCain/Palin, are Racist???
SOOO... ISNT THAT REVERSE, RACISM???? YES IT IS??
