"It's amazing to me that Obama can claim he's protecting human rights around the world," Simpson told me this week in an exclusive interview, "and he's ignoring the plight of Democrats railroaded to prison right in his own country."
She continued: "I think I know why in this case. Fuller and his company are part of the military-industrial complex. As we've seen with many documents, Doss is training Air Force pilots and refueling Air Force planes, including the President's Air Force One. The government ought to be releasing not simply the records about Leura Canary -- but all the records on Doss Aviation and Fuller. If you look at the Doss Aviation website, you'll see that the company bragged last spring about advancing towards $5 billion in new government business over the next five years. I guess President Obama likes Fuller's company pretty well."
Also, the
Obama Justice Department in June 2009 fired its top in-house paralegal for the
Siegelman trial, Tamarah Grimes, above, after she complained to Bush and then
Obama authorities about trial and office procedures. She documented Leura Canary's
supervisory role after supposed recusal. Grimes is a Republican whom OEN's Joan Brunwasser and I
interviewed extensively in 2009 following her 10-page letter to Obama
Attorney Gen. Eric Holder outlining irregularities in her office, including vast waste in the Siegelman prosecution.
Alabama-based OEN contributor Roger Shuler has written hundreds of columns about the case. One was a thorough treatment of the recusal issue last April in The Siegelman Case: Ten Years of Injustice -- and Counting. That column included the full text of Siegelman's February 2006 request under the Freedom of Information Act for relevant DOJ documents so he could prepare for trial later, with hopes he could be acquitted that year before Alabama's 2006 gubernatorial re-election.
As I wrote last wrote in September, the bipartisan disgrace continues in what appears to be a court-enabled "kleptocracy" in Alabama and Washington.
Beyond what arises from this week's hearing,
what will happen next November? Most people still don't know about the
Siegelman case and most never will. But my own observation is that important
opinion leaders are aware of it, as are many involved in what OEN Publisher Rob Kall calls "The "Occupied Territories" across
the country stemming from the Occupy Wall Street movement.
This movement
spreading to Occupied Territories is not an appendage of the Democratic Party.
The Obama DOJ's persecution of Siegelman helps explains why.
