[emilyg]

19. Thanks.

[gateley]

2. Done - EXCELLENT idea and thanks for the link!

I'm often guilty of bitching and moaning about whatever it is that's pissing me off, but forgetting to thank those who are actually DOING something we've been calling for.

:yourock:

[maseman]

[Vadem]

7. 60 Minutes expose of the Don Siegelman issue in Alabama.. n/t

11. They did a story onGovernor Siegelman tonight.

I didn't see it, but they should be commended for bringing this issue to a national audience.

Here's a link to their home page:

9. Updated the link

[gateley]

5. PS -- I always like to mention the word "advertisers" in my communications,

and have good intentions of following through, but....

[Junkdrawer]

6. It was good, but they skipped the 2002 election theft...

Video Part 1:

Video Part 2:

I guess either they felt they didn't have the time to do that aspect of the story, or they knew that if they put that in, the story would stay spiked.

[IndyOp]

21. Yep. They aren't ready to deal with stolen elections -- maybe when Siegelman

is released then that part will come out.

:(

[MnFats]

8. anyone else's blood absolutely BOILING over that report?

time to clean house in the Justice Department, the whole govt. of alabama

[Fly by night]

24. I'm emailing them to tell them to get their heads outta their asses.

A lead story on Siegelman without a word on the theft of his 2002 re-election? What a putrid crock of irrelevance!! Sorry I wasted my time in front of the tube watching it.

[Eric J in MN]

25. The link is .au, as in the Australian website for "60 Minutes."

The American email address is:
[email protected]

[Mister Ed]

27. Good catch, Eric. I e-mailed mine to [email protected] instead. n/t

[MelissaB]

26. Lala says they may be interested in doing a couple of more segments if the public

is interested: http://www.atlargely.com/2008/02/soviet-america.html

[EFerrari]

28. Let's email them and ask them who didn't see the segment

because of "techinical problems".

Holy cow.
