*"The FBI searched the residence of the son of a Democratic state lawmaker in Tennessee over the weekend, looking for evidence linking the young man to the hacking of Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin's personal e-mail account, two law enforcement officials said yesterday.

David Kernell, 20, has not returned repeated phone calls or e-mails from the Associated Press since last week. His lawyer said yesterday that the family is going through a difficult period.

"The Kernell family wants to do the right thing, and they want what is best for their son," said attorney Wade V. Davies of Knoxville. "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."

Kernell is the son of state Rep. Mike Kernell, a Memphis Democrat and chairman of Tennessee's House Government Operations Committee. The father declined to discuss the possibility his son might be involved in the case."

mom2, I double dog dare you to try to hack that kid's email account and post all of his private correspondence here for us to see - including his sister's cell phone number!



Juuuust kidding, of course!

LOL!

I saw that he was the Senator's son too. I heard the Senator was completely shocked and outraged though. Guess who won't be getting any care packages at college anytime soon.

I thought that, too. He probably didn't have any idea that he could actually do it. Then when he did, it probably was a bragging rights thing. Now he's in big trouble. I imagine behind closed doors, that boy heard plenty from old dad!!
