Am I chopped liver compared to Sarah Palin?

One of the foundations of our system of laws is that we are all equal under the law.  The USA has no class or caste system that is recognized by our laws and our courts.  We are all entitled to equal protection under the law, right?  So why did the Justice Department indict the kid who p0wned Wasilla Wolverine's Yahoo email account, yet they refused to take action against the people who did to me? 

I don't know, maybe I don't wink enough when I speak or maybe it is time I "put on the heels and take off the gloves", but I find it a true double standard that the Federal Government would take action against the people who did this to her, but not the people who did the same thing to me.  Is it a sexist thing?  Are only woman entitled to protection under the law?  Are only Republicans? Only people running for office?  If this is a crime (and I believe it is a crime for sure), than the government should not be selective in who is eligible for its protection.  Enough of catering to special interests! I am not a second class citizen and want the same rights that Sarah Palin has!

Let me be clear, I don't condone what this person did to "that ones" (isn't that the term to use) Yahoo mail.  It is a crime, it is wrong and should be punished.  But I was told by multiple law enforcement personal that unless there was financial theft or fraud over 10k the federal government will not get involved.  Any one who hacks into someone's private email or accounts should be prosecuted under the law.  No Double Standards!
