She is doubling down on her victimhood.

JUNEAU, Alaska (AP) In the final months before she resigned as Alaska's governor, Sarah Palin displayed growing frustration over deteriorating relationships with state lawmakers and outrage over ethics complaints that she felt frivolously targeted her and prompted her to write: "I can't take it anymore."
The details are included in more than 17,000 records released Thursday by state officials nearly 3 1/2 years after citizens and news organizations, including The Associated Press, first requested Palin's emails. The emails, most from Palin's final 10 months in office, illustrate what Palin has said all along: The intense scrutiny of her family and work was a financial and emotional drain that forced her to step down as governor.
{Even complaining bitterly about Todd having to WORK. }
She expressed anger at having to pay for her own defense, with a bill that at that point totaled more than $500,000, saying her husband had to go back to work on the North Slope because of it.

Funny, I don't remember that part in the Book of Esther. Nice queen you've annointed there, Freeperati.

(22,172 posts)kissing her ass anymore and the tiny bit of criticism she received was too much. Interesting how the timing of the release of these e-mails coincides with the release of "Game Change".
She's emotionally unstable - unfit for office.

(17,656 posts)Ya know, that letting all the e-mails written by the head of the State be made public that upsets her now.
Ya know, people shouldn't have the right to be able to see what the Governor was writing about when she was in office because it was all official, of course.
And then there's also the fact that it's because it was her state and she was the Governor, by golly, so why should all of her e-mails be made public?!
Sometimes she even had to resort to using her private e-mail account to conduct official state business because there were so many "busy-bodies", ya know.
So, this transparency thing is not all that it is cracked up to be.
We're becoming a communist country more and more each day because of all of this "need to know" stuff that reporters and Democrats want to have these days.
Whatever happened to the good old days when she was able to hack into someone else's computer and get what she wanted without their permission?
I know, it sounds quaint in today's "Twitter world", but gosh, why can't people mind their own beeswax.
