Ok, I made that last part up, but I really hope it’s true. 

Michelle Malkin gets the story behind the hack, and it is absolutely fascinating (and frightening at the same) time, to say the least.

The offending alleged hacker was a guy called rubico, and he wrote to an anonymous board that was ground zero for this madness, explaining his actions and how he did it:

In the past couple days news had come to light about palin using a yahoo mail account, it was in news stories and such, a thread was started full of newf&*s trying to do something that would not get this off the ground, for the next 2 hours the acct was locked from password recovery presumably from all this bullsh%^ spamming.

after the password recovery was reenabled, it took seriously 45 mins on wikipedia and google to find the info, Birthday? 15 seconds on wikipedia, zip code? well she had always been from wasilla, and it only has 2 zip codes (thanks online postal service!)

the second was somewhat harder, the question was “where did you meet your spouse?” did some research, and apparently she had eloped with mister palin after college, if youll look on some of the screensh*&ts that I took and other fellow anon have so graciously put on photobucket you will see the google search for “palin eloped” or some such in one of the tabs.

I found out later though more research that they met at high school, so I did variations of that, high, high school, eventually hit on “Wasilla high” I promptly changed the password to popcorn and took a cold shower…

Seriously, that’s all it took.  Request Yahoo to send you password recovery, answer the personal questions right, and presto you can change the password and get access.  If the “hacker” has enough personal information about you, he can successfully answer the questions and bypass Yahoo’s fluffy security measures and do God only knows what to your account.  So really, the guy wasn’t even a hacker, just a clever, (albeit at the same time monumentally stupid) prankster who is now probably getting his face  phonebook-bashed in by the Secret Service even as we speak.

But the beautiful thing is, after all that, he found… nothing.

I read though the emails… ALL OF THEM… before I posted, and what I concluded was anticlimactic, there was nothing there, nothing incriminating, nothing that would derail her campaign as I had hoped, all I saw was personal stuff, some clerical stuff from when she was governor…. And pictures of her family

I then started a topic on /b/, peeps asked for pics or gtfo and I obliged, then it started to get big

Yeah, no kidding.  Dumbass.

Of course, this doesn’t stop the Palin Bigots from having a field day and questioning her intelligence because she uses Yahoo Mail for personal use and getting off on having her daughter’s cell and voicemail and whatnot.  Well dudes, I use Yahoo too, (in fact two Yahoo accounts), so um, F^&* you?

And really, I can’t imagine the courage it must have taken to go after somebody’s children and family like that.  Really now, you anonymous liberals are just a beacon of unparalleled bravery and valor.  Don’t agree with a woman’s politics?  Let’s attack the kids!  That’ll show them stupid hick Christians who didn’t have the sense to have abortions when they should have gotten them!

God I hate moonbat DailyKos sucking liberals.

Update: The “Hacker?”

God he even LOOKS like a dumbass.
