This looks like a story I should look into...

CBS's 60 Minutes is saying that they have a GOP operative from AL that has told them that none other than e presidential chief of staff Karl Rove asked her personally to take dirty pictures of sitting Democratic governor Don Siegelman. The operative, Jill Simpson said that even though she was assigned to get the photos she found no evidence of infidelity on the part of the governor in spite of months of observation.

Apparently when that didn't work Rove just found a prosecutor who would play ball. Siegleman was convicted of bribery in a case that is at the very least highly controversial. According to the CBS report

Siegelman was convicted of bribery in a case that has drawn criticism from Democrats and Republicans. In fact, 52 former states’ attorneys general from both political parties petitioned Congress to investigate Siegelman’s case, resulting in hearings held last fall.

"I haven’t seen a case with this many red flags on it that pointed towards a real injustice being done," Grant Woods, the former Republican attorney general of Arizona and one of those who petitioned Congress, tells Pelley. "I personally believe that what happened here is that they targeted Don Siegelman because they could not beat him fair and square."

That sounds like our turdblossom all right....
