Clones only need apply, real people could have baggage

Who remembers every email address or AOL screen name they ever used? This requirement does not sound legal to me.

Especially since Obama's high level appointmentees are not being simulary scutinized. JC

For a Washington Job, Be Prepared to Tell All

WASHINGTON — Want a top job in the Obama administration? Only pack rats need apply, preferably those not packing controversy.

A seven-page questionnaire being sent by the office of President-elect Barack Obama to those seeking cabinet and other high-ranking posts may be the most extensive — some say invasive — application ever.

The questionnaire includes 63 requests for personal and professional records, some covering applicants’ spouses and grown children as well, that are forcing job-seekers to rummage from basements to attics, in shoe boxes, diaries and computer archives to document both their achievements and missteps.

Only the smallest details are excluded; traffic tickets carrying fines of less than $50 need not be reported, the application says. Applicants are asked whether they or anyone in their family owns a gun. They must include any e-mail that might embarrass the president-elect, along with any blog posts and links to their Facebook pages.

The application also asks applicants to “please list all aliases or ‘handles’ you have used to communicate on the Internet.”

Tennessee Democratic Congressman’s Son Hacked Sarah Palin’s Email–UPDATED AGAIN: Connection with Obama’s Campaign Manager?

September 19, 2008 / 11:29 am • By Dr. Melissa Clouthier

Confederate Yankee extends mercy to the kid with a depressive disorder who hacked Sarah Palin’s Yahoo account. That is overly kind. Were this miscreant a Republican, he’d be tarred and feathered and we’d be hearing about how it’s no wonder a Republican had problems with depression, but put him in jail with the same law used to oppress minorities and the disabled.

No. Throw the book at this rotten Democratic apple. It matters not that he’s unstable. That’s pretty much a given when you go hacking into a government official’s private email. His father is in the government, surely he knows it’s a no-no to monkey around in a government official’s email. He had enough sense to pick out emails he perceived as most damaging to Sarah Palin, his frontal lobe is obviously functioning fine. It’s his moral center that isn’t working. Perhaps some time in jail will fix it.

UPDATED AGAIN:

This is huge. Via Jim Hoft aka Gateway Pundit:

** MORE…. There is a connection between David Kernell and David Plouffe— Barack Obama’s Campaign Manager!
From a commenter at Terry Frank (who has screengrabs of David Kernell’s Facebook page):

There is an apparent connection between David Kernell and David Plouffe. If you do a Technorati search for “david kernell” (http://www.technorati.com/search/%22david+kernell%22?authority=a4&language=en) and then click on Videos about David Kernell, the first video you see if of David Plouffe (Campaign manager for Obaman). He probably did the video for Plouffe.

This is not a casual connection.

Wow. Just wow.
