Palin Email Break-in

Word in the Conservative World, was that a nasty hacker broke into Sarah Palin's Yahoo Email Account. It was late at night between 3 and 4am. A Hacker named Anonymous, (because you know serial killers go by no name as well. who cares about glory) broke in and surprise surprise he could not find anything.

From the Australian Herald-Sun
"I am the lurker who did it, and I would like to tell the story," the person wrote. "What started as a prank was cut short because of panic over the possibility the FBI might investigate."
The hacker guessed that the Alaskan Governor, whose private life has been widely covered in the media since Republican presidential hopeful Senator John McCain asked her to be his running mate, had met her husband in high school. The person also knew her date of birth and home post code.

Using those details, the hacker tricked Yahoo's email service into assigning a
new password - popcorn - for her email account.
Yahoo has a "forgot my
password" mechanism that allows customers to retrieve or change their password
if they can verify their identity by confirming personal information such as
birthday, post code and the answer to a "secret question", such as a pet's name
or school mascot.
Mrs Palin's hacker was challenged to guess where Alaska's
governor met her husband, Todd.
Mrs Palin herself recounted in her speech at
the Republican National Convention that the pair began dating 20 years ago in
high school in Wasilla.
"I found out later through more research that they
met at high school, so I did variations of that, high, high school, eventually
hit on 'Wasilla high'," the person wrote.

So the Governor of a State has her email address that easy to break into. Seriously. It would be like Barack Obama having his password, "Change." Or John McCain having his email, never mind he stated he doesn't know how to use one of these things.

Check this out, how did the hacker get her email address. I am sure it is not SARAHPALINNRAPROLIFE@Yahoo.com. So alot of this doesn't make any sense. It's not suppose to, I guess the lipstick comment would only distract for so long. Now we have crazy liberals breaking into ultra conservatives email and violating trust.

Next week will be another distraction.

Can you feel it, can you feel it, can you feel it.
