1. Justice Department Officials Play Games
With Truth
by Andrew Kreig for Connecticut Watchdog
.
On Aug. 27, holdover officials from the Bush Justice Department filed
226 pages arguing that former Alabama Gov. Don Siegelman and his
co-defendant have presented no evidence since their 2006 bribery
convictions that justifies a hearing or new trial.
No evidence?
As too often in the past, DoJ officials look like they’re exaggerating to
block justice and to protect themselves. By seeking to imprison
Siegelman for 20 additional years, DoJ clearly seeks to end public
debate about Alabama’s most prominent Democrat. He held that
distinction for years, at least until he narrowly lost re-election in 2002
following still-mysterious Election night switches of 6,000 votes out of
his column in a rural county after polls closed.
