When the State of Alaska released over 24,000 of Gov. Palin's emails,
the mainstream media feeding frenzy was on to come up with the next
"-gate" story. Surely in that batch of emails, there had to be some
buried bodies, corruption, bribery, embezzlement of tax-payer funds, a
nice, salacious sex scandal, curse and threat-laden emails, or written
displays of egregious bad judgment. Now, into its third day, reporters
have found nothing of the sort. Even the normally left-leaning CNN concluded from their reading of the stack that Gov. Palin was a hard-working public servant committed to her constituents' best interests.
When SarahPAC's treasurer Tim Crawford asked for volunteers to read Gov. Palin's emails, I answered the call this morning, going to Crivella West Incorporated searchable database.

Military and Veterans
In the first one, Gov. Palin expresses her anger that she is not
being timely briefed on military deployments and home-comings and finds
out after the fact. "I've asked repeatedly to be in the loop and it's
unacceptable to still not be given info on military activities that I am
expected, and should be, participating in," she wrote.
The second email is a thank you letter for participating in a home-coming.

These are just a few of the emails which prove that Gov. Palin was a
tireless, selfless public servant, who put Alaskans first. She was not a
mere politician; she was a stateswoman. Conservatives4Palin has a comprehensive sample covering AGIA, The Bridge to Nowhere, Budgets, Taxes, and other areas.
