How much you want to bet Ms. Palin saw this email and found it funny?
Alaska investigates racist e-mails about Obama
By RACHEL D'ORO
Associated Press
Dec. 17, 2008, 8:52PM


ANCHORAGE, Alaska — Alaska officials are investigating racist jokes about President-elect Barack Obama that have been circulating on state government e-mail accounts.

One of the five e-mails obtained by The Associated Press asks about the outcome of the Democrat's victory after all the time and money invested and concludes: "Another black family living in government housing!"

State officials were unaware of the e-mails until asked about them by the AP.

Three of the racist messages were confirmed by the state's information technology division after an electronic search of the government's e-mail system, Administration Commissioner Annette Kreitzer said Wednesday.

"It's embarrassing to the state," she said.

Kreitzer said she alerted the office of Gov. Sarah Palin — the failed Republican vice presidential candidate — about the e-mails.

3. I noticed today that the blessed silence I've been hearing is the absence of Palin
and it is nice.

It is like after she got less attention for showing up to stump for Chambliss, and was ignored at the gov's conference - no Obama meeting & back row seating - she has disappeared from the nation's radar quite a bit.

Yeah, her cronies tried to torch her own church to get national attention, but even that faded. It is a good thing to not hear that nasty voice and word salad stuff.
