The Permanent Republican Majority - Update...

Folks, I apologize for the delay in getting part III of the Permanent Republican Majority out, but look for it tomorrow at RS. Click on Part I to read the first installment, The Political Prisoner. Click on Part II for my interview with Governor Siegelman's daughter Dana. Also, check out the time-line here.

On Background (not really):

I cannot get into specifics as to why we are delayed a bit, but suffice it to say that people talking to us are feeling a great deal of heat.

In addition, I am hearing from multiple sources that the whistle-blower in the case, Dana Jill Simpson is now under investigation by US Attorney for the Northern District of Alabama, Alice Martin and that Ms. Martin is having Ms. Simpson tailed. Unfortunately I don't have enough specifics to have included this in my upcoming article, but perhaps if Congress is interested they can call Ms. Martin for an explanation.

One other thing I heard a great deal about recently is that despite the valiant efforts of the journalists and producers who put 60 Minutes together, Governor Bob Riley is bragging to have squashed the expose via corporate channels. This would not be the first time the corporate owners of 60 Minutes caved to the pressures of big money and political pressure. I am, hoping, however that if the public remains aware of what is going on, CBS corporate will air the story. It is up to you to keep the pressure on.

Let me put it another way and for the benefit of the CBS executives who are standing between solid journalism and the right of the public to know the truth:

By the time part V of our series runs, CBS will either have aired the story or killed it quietly hoping no one would notice. But just so we are all clear, I know what CBS is sitting on and although I am not investigating that angle, I will not hesitate to scoop their story if they don't stand by their promise to give their sources the protection of public exposure. I will not hesitate for a moment to also include CBS corporate as part of my story either.
