Breaking: Desperate Democrats release Sarah Palin’s SSN and address

Posted 03 Sep 2008 in 2008 election, Democrats, liberals, outrage, Sarah Palin

Alaska Democrats are getting desperate. They (most likely Tony Knowles; her opponent in the 2006 Alaska gubernatorial race) have released Sarah Palin’s social security number to Politico.com as part of their “opposition research”. RedState is chronicling the “ethics” of the Democrat party.

The Politico has received an opposition research file from the Alaska Democrats. You can read it in PDF here.

In the file, the Democrats have released Sarah Palin’s social security number minus the last four digits. Also tied to the information are her various home addresses.

Back in 2005, Democrats used Michael Steele’s social security number to get his credit record.

It is atrocious that the Democrats would not only seek out Sarah Palin’s social security number, but release it in opposition research to the press.

We need to know who did this. We also need to know what happened. We also need to know if it was used to bolster the Democrats’ opposition research.
…
It’s ironic the party that thinks only Republicans invade privacy, invaded the privacy of Sarah Palin enough to learn her social security number and distribute it to the media.

Alaska has a very strong law against identity theft and the leaking of sensitive personal information (Social Security Numbers are not public record). Someone could be going to jail for this.

Alaska’s HB 65 restricts the request, collection, sale, and sharing of Social Security numbers by both private parties and government agencies. The new law contains limited exceptions for specific purposes such as for insurance, medical services, fraud prevention, law enforcement, or when the use of Social Security numbers is required by law.

Liberals have howled for years about government surveillance of Americans who engage in overseas communication with terrorists. How convenient that they now overlook personal privacy when it comes to their political opponents. Clearly, they believe terrorists are to be given greater consideration than fellow Americans of a different political party.

I wonder if Obama will denounce this unethical behavior by Democrat operatives, or if he’ll allow his surrogates to continue their dirty work while he retains plausible deniablity? To his credit, at least he’s issued some strong statements against involving families in politics. Let’s hope he’ll be as vocal about illegal violations of privacy.
