| 43. This case is cr!p, their main witness has been completely discredited, |
|
the judge is dirty, the prosecutor is dirty and the whole thing is part of the Abramoff / US Attorney /Bush DoJ scandals. There is no comparison to Clinton. He was guilty. Siegelman was not.
Horton wrote about it. Larisa wrote about it. It was all over the place and if you are interested, I'm sure there is some good archived material here at DU.

You mean Holder's DOJ requested 20 more years for Siegelman? |
