"60 Minutes" Siegelman Report Ready to
Run?
StevensonBlog.com of Tuscaloosa News
...."We did a lengthy interview with '60 Minutes'," Davis, a Democrat,
said in an interview with The Tuscaloosa News editorial board. "The
point we tried to make is the court of public opinion is ultimately going
decide, is going to evaluate what they think happened to Don
Siegelman."
But that's not going to get him out of jail, I said.
"Right," Davis answered. "It's the 11th Circuit that is ultimately going
to determine whether or not he is a free man," he said of the federal
appeals court. "Those [public opinion and the legal process] are two
separate things.
"But there is already enough in the court of public opinion, frankly,
for people to make some judgement," Davis said, adding that
"reasonable people" can look at what was brought out in
Congressional hearings "and make the determination that there is a
lot of smoke here.

What the Heck is Artur Davis Up To?
by Roger Shuler of Legal Schnauzer
....Up till now, Davis has appeared to be a leader in investigating
blatant corruption in the Bush Department of Justice (DOJ). But in his
interview with Stevenson, Davis seems to be saying he and his
Congressional colleagues are pretty much packing it in on the DOJ
scandal. The tone is this: Bushies don't want to cooperate by
testifying and turning over documents, and that's fine with us. We
see no reason to push any harder in our "fact finding."
