Whistleblower Tamara Grimes
..We are descendants of great men and women who believed in
this great nation, who gave their lives to secure freedom, life,
liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Two years ago, I would
have been confident that these things could not happen in the
United States of America. These events occurred under the
watch of two presidents and three attorneys general. This is a
civil rights issue. The selective prosecutions in Montgomery,
Alabama have far reaching implications for every citizen of the
United States. A legal precedent has been set, a precedent that
significantly abridges the civil rights and civil liberties
guaranteed to every citizen of the United States by the U.S.
Constitution.Today I passed the civil rights memorial at the
Southern Poverty Law Center here in Montgomery, Alabama.
The memorial is dedicated to the memory and achievements of
those who gave their lives to advance civil rights in this country.
It is breathtaking to behold the glistening water, softly flowing
over an ebony stone upon which is inscribed, "until justice rolls
down like waters and righteousness like a mighty stream."

HEROES
TAMARA GRIMES
Whistle Blower Tamara Grimes was fired from her job. "I have always considered myself to be a moderate Republican,” she said. “I believe in the U.S. Constitution, and that what happened in Montgomery with the Siegelman/Scrushy prosecution is a travesty of justice."
