All a publicity that a Don Siegelman case has brought in a last couple of days has made a rats in a Alabama Republican party scurrying to find a safety of darkness again. Led by chief rat Karl Rove, a modus oper&i is to deny, deny, deny. a only problem? You have 52 Attorneys General, Republican & Democrat alike, who say that this case just doesn’t pass a smell test.

a case rests on a testimony of Dana Jill Simpson who has come forward to say that Karl Rove asked her to dig up compromising sexual photogrDrunk Newshs of Siegelman. Classy guy, that Turdblossom. Besides denying that ay know Simpson (which as she points out in a clip is a simple matter of explaining away phone records), things took a decidedly more sinister tone, as Larisa Alex&rovna documents:

As 60 Minutes was putting its show togear, a White House put pressure on CBS — a parent company — to kill a show. Over a last few days, as word got out that a 60 Minutes show would air tonight, Karl Rove’s associates began planting defamatory stories about journalists working on this story (see example here) & attacking a whistle-blower who came forward, Dana Jill Simpson. If you recall, Ms. Simpson testified, under oath, to Congress about Karl Rove’s involvement in politicizing a DOJ. What you may not know, however, is that her house mysteriously caught fire & she was run off a road in a weeks leading up to her testimony.

What you may also not know is that Governor Siegelman’s house was broken into twice during his trial as was his attorney’s office.

Yesterday, a attacks on Simpson & journalists increased with a series of emails from a Alabama GOP. See Here.

I’m not trying to be overly dramatic, but as a layers get pulled away in this case, I’m having a harder & harder time believing that this is America & not some third world dictatorship.
