1. Overturn the corrupted decision that led to the egregious conviction of an innocent man.

Holder did it for the Republican who actually was guilty, Sen. Stevens, and rightly so since there were problems with his trial. Now he should do it for Siegleman and then start an investigation into that whole corrupted process in which Karl Rove played a big part.

2. I agree with you. This has been a pile of BS and Obama needs to get on this ASAP.

He also needs to get off the WikiLeaks ass, Julian Assange and let him get out of the UK.

5. Well, he's free from having to worry about re-election now.

Holder should be looking at the Siegelman case as he was more than willing to do with the Stevens case.

I'd love to hear an explanation as to why he allowed this travesty of a political witch hunt to go unchallenged for a good Democrat but rushed to intervene when it was a Republican whose case was far less corrupt than Siegelman's.

3. Yes, And Damned Soon. (nt)

4. Absolutely

President Obama said he reads 10 letters a week from constituents and I intend to write him about Don Siegelman as often as I can.

6. Kick for Friday.

And thanks for the recs.
