Rep. Mike Kernell’s Opponent Looks To Exploit Younger Kernell’s Legal Trouble
Posted on October 20, 2008 at 8:06 amFrom Jackson Baker:
“When I heard the rumor that Mike Kernell’s son was the one responsible for hacking into the Vice Presidential Candidate Sarah Palin’s email I was stunned. As a father I sympathize with Mike Kernell and can understand what he is going through as a father. And I will pray for him and his family during this ordeal.
“However, this clearly shows what family values Democrat Mike Kernell has taught his children. It reflects the values of his 34 years as a State Representative in and for the Democratic Party. These are not the type of values the citizens want in their representatives. …”
Whereupon Cook went on to suggest a possible media conspiracy to ignore an alleged relationship between David Kernell and Obama campaign manager David Plouffe.
The Suspense Is Hacking Her Off
Posted on September 25, 2008 at 7:44 amTerry Frank reminds us that David Kernell, son of a Tennessee legislator and accused Sarah Palin email hacker, did not definitively beat a grand jury indictment:
No word yet on the case of possible Palin hacker David Kernell. We know that the federal Grand Jury ended its session without an indictment on Tuesday. But no reports were issued either that stated the Grand Jury was refusing to indict Kernell—an action sometimes referred to as “no true bill.” If the Grand Jury refuses indictment or offers a “no true bill,” Kernell could not be brought to trial.
Plausible Deniability
Posted on September 24, 2008 at 1:41 pmDavid Oatney wonders why David Kernell, accused Sarah Palin email hacker and son of state Rep. Mike Kernell, was not a member of the College Democrats.
The UT Democrats’ rush to distance themselves from this situation begs the question: Why wasn’t David Kernell, the son of a Democratic State Representative, involved in the College Democrats at the University of Tennessee? If this young man is as interested in politics as this kind of activity would seem to indicate, he should have actively sought out the College Democrats. Because his father is a State Representative, Kernell very likely would have been placed on a leadership track in the organization very quickly. He had a wonderful opportunity to really become a “Big Man On Campus.” Yet he apparently chose instead to hack into Sarah Palin’s e-mail.
Kernell Statement
Posted on September 22, 2008 at 10:24 pmFrom the lawyer of the accused Sarah Palin email hacker David Kernell:
“The Kernell family wants to do the right thing, and they want what is best for their son. We are confident that the truth will emerge as we go through the process. David is a decent and intelligent young man, and I look forward to assisting him during this difficult period.”
