Larisa Alexandrovna Reports on the WH Politically Motivated Conviction of Gov. Don Siegelman -- And Rove's Role
Submitted by BuzzFlash on Mon, 06/02/2008 - 6:25pm. Interviews

A BUZZFLASH INTERVIEW

Rove's dream was to recreate the landscape of the judicial system, and to install judges that were either pliable, malleable, and/or very, very pro-corporation. Essentially that is what he did in Alabama in the early Nineties. That is what this is all about. If you control the governor in the states where the justices are not elected, you control who gets on the supreme court. And that's essentially what this is all about for Rove ultimately. But to get those kinds of things done, you have to eliminate the governor you don't want and install the governor you do want. There are a lot of corporate interests funding this. So it intersects in that sense. It's buying the law and restructuring the state judiciary.
