How is hacking Palin's email acct a more serious crime than Memogate? ... From the memory hole ...

[Bozita]

I understand the kid who hacked Sarah's account could receive a sentence of 50 years in prison.

Why is it the MSM never brings up Memogate?

Memogate, also called Cybergate, was the internal U.S. Senate investigation "into whether Republican aides unethically (and perhaps illegally) tapped into Democratic computer files containing private judicial-nomination strategy memos and leaked them to the press."<1>

Neil A. Lewis wrote in the March 5, 2004, edition of the New York Times:

"For 18 months, at least two Republican Senate staff aides engaged in unauthorized and possibly illegal spying by reading Democratic strategy memorandums on a Senate computer system, according to a report released on Thursday by the Senate sergeant-at-arms.

"The 65-page report concluded that the two Republican staff aides, both of whom have since departed, improperly read, downloaded and printed as many as 4,670 files concerning the Democrats' tactics in opposing many of President Bush's judicial nominees. The report, the result of an investigation undertaken at the request of the Senate Judiciary Committee, suggested that many other Republican staff aides may have been involved in trafficking in the stolen documents."

1. Because the republicans and their media whores SAY it is,

and they will keep repeating it till everybody believes it.

The republicans refer to this as "politics".
Most others call it "lies".

2. Any crimes against Democrats and citizenry are OK as long as the perps are Republican.

It's the Republican Way.
