Barack Obama’s email HACKED! (Pictures)

September 17, 2008

Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin has had her email hacked into today. Fox News reports, “Gawker.com posts family photos and snapshots of e-mail exchanges the Alaska governor had with colleagues. Gawker says the-email account has since been shut down, but it will leave the images up on its site for all to see. ‘Here are the screenshots of the emails saved before the account went dark, along with the contact list. It’s newsworthy and we will not be taking it down!’ the site declares.”

Hot Air has linked to an article that the FBI is now looking into these hacking cases. 

However, she is not alone. The Onion has breaking news that presidential candidate Barack Obama has also had his email hacked into. Here are three screen shots of his gmail account. Click the photos for a large picture.

  1. Just curious how you rethuglican headbangers are planning on (a) defending Palin communicating via non-state email talking state business (like, durr, against the freakin’ law) and (b) being dumb enough to use the email handle “gov.palin@yahoo.com” and not expect to get hacked. My, she is not only a paragon of virtue but a veritable genius too. Not.


  2. “Not”? What, is this 1995?

    “rethuglican?” HA!

    I’m more concerned as to why she is using yahoo and not gmail.


  3. 1995 eh? Those were the days… when we had the world’s strongest economy, lower taxes, no wars going on and a functioning president in the WH. But I hear John McCain invented the Blackberry. And the combine harvester. And the cure for polio.


  4. You do realize that the Onion is a satire site, right?

    That’s not a real report, but actually making a joke that if Palin uses Yahoo! mail, then Obama must be using GMail.

  6. fried wire,

    Her problem is she’s a decent, honest, trustworthy person. Decent, honest people expect others to be also. She’s learning very quickly that the world is made up a great deal of scum. Now, can you add anything of value other than elementary school name calling?


  7. Paul McCord,

    Maybe when I stop laughing hysterically at your ridiculous comment. My, someone’s been a real hog at the Kool-Aid trough haven’t they?


  8. $1.5 trillion mess forced upon American tax payers by the CEOs of Fannie May and Freddie Mac are economic advisers to Barack Obama. In addition, Obama is the “largest recipient of political funds from mortgage giants Freddie Mac, Fannie Mae.”

    Think about it, just look how Obama’s economic advisers, CEOs Franklin Raines and James Johnson, ran Fannie and Freddie into the ground. This whilst forcing more debt, in the trillions, upon tax payers meaning higher taxes for Americans.

    The Democrat controlled congress just helped in causing this financial meltdown. Before the Democrats controlled congress the US economy was strong, but ever since then the economy has been heading downwards.

    The Democrats control all branches of government except the executive branch. Do we really need more of the same Democrat agenda? Do Americans really want more socialism that creates bigger government, more government spending, and higher taxes that ultimately gives more control of government over the people??

  9. Haha, the onion


  10. I thought it was funny.


  11. $85B to AIG… it’s cheap though.
    Fed has spent $3T in Iraq.

    Everything is a joke.


  12. funny, lol

    Obama 08


  13. Those’re funny!


  14. “The Democrat controlled congress just helped in causing this financial meltdown. Before the Democrats controlled congress the US economy was strong, but ever since then the economy has been heading downwards.”

    ??????????? Angela, please, I mean this absolutely and sincerely and it’s not as a cheap shot, but… are you actually insane?

    Please tell me there are statutory reasons (maybe age, mental health, criminal history, etc.) that disqualify you from voting in this election. Please!


  15. To Angela

    You are really uninformed. It is a pitty that people can belive the trash the NRC puts out.
    Demo


  16. haha


  17. Obama win.
    he is the best.


  18. fried wire,
    I’ll have to agree with Paul McCord. He brought up a valid comment, and what do you do? Exactly what he said you would, call him names like an elementary school student.
    This quote is from Wikipedia: “The Onion is an American “fake news” organization. It features satirical articles reporting on international, national, and local news as well as an entertainment newspaper and website known as The A.V. Club. It claims a national print circulation of 690,000[1] and says 61 percent of its web site readers are between 18 and 44 years old per the 2008 media kit.” (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Onion)

    It is obviouly not meant to be serious, so lighten up. They were just trying to have some fun!

  26. The Honorable President-Elect, Barack Obama.

    Hello! My name is Charlotte (Tankeu) Djomo Green. I am Queen of the Bangoua Village in Cameroon, Africa, where I was born. On June, 14 1997 I married a United States Citizen name Theodore R. Green, Jr., in California. Since then I have lived with him in Fremont, California. Although he is a Republican, we support you and the Democrat Party. I and my husband send our condoleances regarding your grandmother, and our congratulations regarding your victory and historic accomplishment on November 4, 2008.

    My question is, if you travel to Cameroon, Africa, will you please allow me to travel there with you and show you around my village?

    Moreover, several years ago when my daddy, David Djomo, was running for President of Cameroon he was killed in a car accident. He was Mayor of the city of Yaounde2, Cameroon at that time.

    Therefore, my husband and I pledge whatever we may have to whatever you may need to help you with your continued success.

    May God continue to bless you, your wife, and daughters. I would be honored if your girls name their new puppy “Queen Tankeu”

    Sincerly,

    “Queen Charlotte”

    Charlotte D. Green

  31. Dear Mr. Barack Obama,
    I am not an american neither have I voted in the USA elections for my nationality, country of residence and age have not allowed me to do so. I allow myself to contact you for as out 44 maybe you are the sole exception. Last tuesday y was watching the american elections and found out that an evaluation I had done in April 2008 on your speech in Denver to enter the Democratic campaing ,with/against Hillary Clinton. I would love if you could read this short evaluation that I wrote before an article on the same speech was done that was quite similar to mine (but I wrote it first). I would love also if you, if you have any time from here to as much as you would like, could answer this email just to tell me if you like it.

    Thank you for having read this and I am sorry for I know you may be full of emails to answer but either one or the other, thank you verry much for spending your time on me.

    Miguel Terol Espino

    P.S: I am Spanish and I currently live in Belgium. I a aged 15 now but was 14 when I wrote the evaluation.

    ——————————————–

    Barack Obama’s speech on January 30, 2008

    I am writing this essay to evaluate the effectiveness of Obama’s speech on January 30 2008 in Denver. He gives this speech to become the Democratic Party candidate for the United States presidential elections.
    He starts of his speech by blaming the president of the United States, George Bush, and Dick Cheney for failing their policies. He says that it is time to turn the page on the failed politics that made those policies possible. As a start for a democrat candidate, it is very good because it fulfils the needs of the democratic Americans that blame Bush and Dick Cheney. He is with people that have the same idea as he has and because he says that what he wants is what they want, they approve of him for they think he will be able to take their thoughts onwards.
    In his speech he uses a variety of resources which have been said to make speeches and lectures more effective. This are: appeal to emotion, appeal to authority, contrast, metaphor, quotations from famous people or speeches, exaggeration, groups of three, definition, short sentences, repetition, parallelism and the offer of solutions.
    In almost the entire second paragraph he uses appeal to emotion to gain the attention of the people. He says that George Bush prevented them from being able to fight together against challenges like health care, clean energy and crumbling schools. By doing this he makes the people think worst of Bush because they think that he has deprived them of things like freedom, power or survival. This resource is very useful because it makes people think that he will never permit that to happen once he is the president of the United States. And by this he makes Bush look even worse which would make people think that republicans do not have the guts to rule in the United States of America.
    The use of the appeal to authority is less used but also important to make the speech as plausible as possible. The use of expert facts may look uninteresting but to some of the voters which actually take those facts into account, they do matter. There is a difference if one candidate is going to spend X% of the GDP in health and safety and if the other is going to spend (X-20) % of the GDP in health and safety. Because of this it makes the speech not only interesting to the normal audience but also to the audience which does not care what the words are if facts are not given.
    Obama also uses contrast and opposition but maybe not in the exact way that one would use it. Instead of saying things like it is enough of whites, up to blacks, he states that it is not what Bush wants, good vs. evil, black vs. white, poor vs. rich or young vs. old. He uses it in a more humane way, he says that it is time for unity and not division, it is no more a race of who gets to scare more the people, it is a race of hope vs. the fears that Bush has put in the Americans minds. This is also very useful for people are aware of their fears and if they see that Obama is a clear passage to hope they will vote for him.
    He uses a quotation from the speech of John F. Kennedy, “the world is changing. The old ways will not do…It is time for a new generation of leadership”. This more effective even because this quotation comes from the speech that Kennedy gave when he was named president. The actual meaning was that he was going to be the youngest president of the United States and therefore he changes the normal way of old people in charge, Obama is related to this because both his opponents have a quite good sack of years to carry on their backs which means that actually he is the most possible to bring in new ideas that make the united states become a better place. This is very important because Kennedy was a great president and if he is able to compare himself to Kennedy people will think that he will also do great things.
    As a conclusion I would say that having read his speech and supposing that the rest are as good or better than this one he is the most possible candidate to the democrat party and possibly the future United States president. His use of correct methods is great and therefore any of his speeches are able to catch you for the big importance that Obama gives to saying us instead of me and you. His speech is effective for any method of thinking.

  33. Mr. President!

    What a once in a lifetime, never to be forgotten event. To finally see what appears to be a man of impeccable character, faith in Christ. One that seems to be a sincere family man with compassion for those that have received unjust treatment in these United States of America.

    I hope to live and possibly see some of the changes you will attempt to effect while you are in the CASA BLANCA.

    Do not fear when the evil one gets near to get your ear. Charge on with what you believe God puts in your heart.

    For those of you that have misgivings, time will tell for all of us.

    For the JERK Jeff Lloyd that wrote “are you stupid to think you are really emailing Barack Obama?

    NO. We are not stupid. You are a waste with the lower part of your anatomy matching the size of your brain.

    In the end of each of our lives we will meet face to face with out destiny. You, Mr. President will have to also.

    Good luck and God’s speed. Email if you need me.
