http://www.bradblog.com/?p=4594#more-4594 The Goods on Goodling and the Keys to the Kingdom Special to BRADBLOG by Greg Palast This Monica revealed something hotter much hotter than a stained blue dress. In her opening testimony yesterday before the House Judiciary Committee, Monica Goodling, the blonde-ling underling to Attorney General Alberto Gonzales and Department of Justice Liaison to the White House, dropped The Big One .And the Committee members didnt even know it. Goodling testified that Gonzales Chief of Staff, Kyle Sampson, perjured himself, lying to the committee in earlier testimony. The lie: Sampson denied Monica had told him about Tim Griffins involvement in caging voters in 2004. Huh?? Tim Griffin? Caging??? The perplexed committee members hadnt a clue and asked no substantive questions about it thereafter. Karl Rove is still smiling. If the members had gotten the clue, and asked the right questions, they would have found the keys to the kingdom, they thought they were looking for. They dangled right in front of their perplexed faces. The keys: the missing emails and missing link that could send Griffin and his boss, Rove, to the slammer for a long, long time. Kingdom enough for ya? But whats caging and why is it such a dreadful secret that lawyer Sampson put his license to practice and his freedom on the line to cover Tim Griffins involvement in it? Because its a felony. And a big one. Our BBC team broke the story at the top of the nightly news everywhere on the planet - except the USA - only because Americas news networks simply refused to cover this evidence of the electoral coup detat that chose our President in 2004. Heres how caging worked, and along with Griffins thoughtful emails themselves youll understand it all in no time. The Bush-Cheney operatives sent hundreds of thousands of letters marked Do not forward to voters homes. Letters returned (caged) were used as evidence to block these voters right to cast a ballot on grounds they were registered at phony addresses. Who were the evil fakers? Homeless men, students on vacation and you got to love this American soldiers. Oh yeah: most of them are Black voters. Why werent these African-American voters home when the Republican letters arrived? The homeless men were on park benches, the students were on vacation and the soldiers were overseas. Go to Baghdad, lose your vote. Mission Accomplished. How do I know? I have the caging lists I have them because they are attached to the emails Rove insists cant be found. I have the emails. 500 of them sent to our team at BBC after the Rove-bots accidentally sent them to a web domain owned by our friend John Wooden. Heres what you need to know and the Committee would have discovered, if only theyd asked: 1. Caging voters is a crime, a go-to-jail felony. 2. Griffin wasnt involved in the caging, Ms. Goodling. Griffin, Roves right-hand man (right-hand claw), was directing the illegal purge and challenge campaign. How do I know? Its in the email I got. Thanks. And its posted at http://www.bradblog.com/?p=4594#more-4594. 3. On December 7, 2006, the ragin, cagin Griffin was named, on Roves personal demand, US Attorney for Arkansas. Perpetrator became prosecutor. The committee was perplexed about Monicas panicked admission and accusations about the caging list because the US press never covered it. Thats because, as Griffin wrote to Goodling in yet another email (dated February 6 of this year, and also posted at http://www.bradblog.com/?p=4594#more-4594), their caging operation only made the news on BBC London: busted open, Griffin bitched, by that British reporter, Greg Palast. Theres no pride in this. Our BBC team broke the story at the top of the nightly news everywhere on the planet except the USA only because Americas news networks simply refused to cover this evidence of the electoral coup detat that chose our President in 2004. And now, not bothering to understand the astonishing revelation in Goodlings confessional, they are missing the real story behind the firing of the US attorneys. Its not about removing prosecutors disloyal to Bush, its about replacing those who refused to aid the theft of the vote in 2004 with those prepared to burgle it again in 2008. Now that they have the keys, lets see if they can put them in the right door.
