Rove’s vendetta against Don Siegelman
Written by Rob on February 22, 2008 – 1:57 pm -A story that’s been seemingly underreported. A Republican lawyer swears that she heard Karl Rove planned to ‘neutralize’ the political career of Alabama governor Don Siegelman by using the Department of Justice. At the LEAST, it’s an ugly story that taints the DOJ’s case against him, who was found guilty of corruption and sent to prison for 7 years. It also speaks strongly to the importance of having a strong Attorney General, one who has some independence from the administration in power. Something neither of our last two presidents had the internal strength to dare try.
