Alaska Investigates Racist Obama E-mails on State Government Accounts

By GottaLaff

Before Palin and her $180,000 wardrobe grabbed the spotlight, Alaska didn't seem to have all these scandals, now did it?

Alaska officials are investigating racist jokes about President-elect Barack Obama that have been circulating on state government e-mail accounts.

One of the e-mails obtained by The Associated Press asks what was the outcome of the Democrat's victory after all the time and money spent, and concludes: "Another black family living in government housing!"

State officials were unaware of the e-mails until asked about them by the AP.

Administration Commissioner Annette Kreitzer says she alerted the office of Gov. Sarah Palin -- the failed Republican vice presidential candidate -- about the e-mails.

Palin's office had no immediate comment.

Well, gee, I'm sure that if "state officials" had been willing to cough up $10,000 a pop, they could have made themselves aware of each and every e-mail.
