Hi everyone. I just got word, second-hand from The Governor that he may not be interviewed necessarily today on Thom Hartmann. (Tune in just in case). The terms of his parole had a temporary gag order, and with Jeff Sessions in the D.O.J. at the moment, Governor Siegelman is checking to ensure exactly when he can speak publicly about his ordeal without fear of being returned to prison.
I will be vigilant and tell you when he will be on the air and where to find him.
I apologize as two days ago, it seemed certain he would back today.
