For background, here: In the politicized firings of some federal prosecutors and the equally politicized retentions of others, Karl Rove was—as he himself has put it—a “conduit.” The personnel manipulations were not, of course, just an end in themselves. They were also the means to an end—the selective and politicized prosecutions of local elected officials, mostly Democratic, around the country. See the short video pamphlet produced by Project Save Justice for quick overview. The pattern of selective prosecution under the previous administration has been criticized by a distinguished panel of attorneys, retired judges and former government officials.

And here, a new wrinkle: Among other unsavory tactics, did the Bush DOJ engage in behind-the-scenes sexual blackmail against critics or legal witnesses?

In December of 2008, I was contacted by an individual I knew and her attorney about the OPR conducting an investigation on me and asking questions about my sex life and the adoption of my four-year-old daughter. I contacted the man they identified as working for the DOJ OPR, Jim Sullivan, who happens to work for Alice Martin. I asked him if I was the target of an investigation since he had conversations with the woman who contacted me about whether I had bought a baby for $300,000.00 after his asking her about it. He would not confirm or deny if I was a target to investigation on the ridiculous claim that I had bought a baby for $300,000.00, which was untrue, but he admitted asking the questions the woman said he had asked her.
