General Discussion

across political lines. From Republicans, Democrats, Independents, and from people who WITNESSED the corruption that took place during Rove's campaign to 'get him'. Stevens had none of that.

They cheated when they prosecuted Siegelman and the evidence of that was incontrovertible. Yes, Stevens trial was corrupted, but nearly to the extent that Siegelman's was.

Do you know anything about this case at all?

It is BECAUSE Stevens' case was overturned with far less evidence of gross corruption than in Siegelman's case that people are so outraged at this DOJ.

Karl Rove was not behind Stevens' conviction. HE WAS behind Siegelman's. And when his first attempt to get him failed, he didn't give up.

Please, let's stop with the excuses. It isn't often that Republicans jump to the defense of a Democrat, but this case was so BLATANTLY corrupt, with so much evidence, and with great lawyers, that even they could not believe it had not been overturned.
