Here’s the statement from Alabama’s former Governor Don Siegelman (D), now a political prisoner being held in a federal correctional institution in Louisiana, that we obtained and published last week, as discussed in my conversation above on Thom Hartmann’s Big Picture this week.
If you’re looking for Tom DeLay and Karl Rove, they’re still on the lam, fugitives from justice, as Siegelman serves out 6.5 years for something that was never considered a crime before in the history of this nation.
Oh, and I do love this graphic that Thom’s folks used at the top of our segment…
Sign the petition asking President Obama for a pardon for Siegelman right here…
UPDATE 10/5/13: I was also on Hartmann’s radio show the day before the TV show appearance seen above. We talk about largely the same things, though with a few additional details here and there, such as more info on Siegelman’s 2002 “stolen” re-election. Thom’s radio show is also video taped (and played live on Free Speech TV and elsewhere). The video segment of my radio appearance with him follows below…
Good job, Brad. And credit to Thom Hartmann for recognizing an excellent source.
Gregory B. Craig was reported to be working on Don Siegelman’s Appeal to the Eleventh Circuit, asking for a NEW TRIAL, denied in an earlier appeal (to the same scumball Judge Fuller).
