Today - in a surprise ruling - the U.S. Supreme Court vacated part of the corruption case against former Alabama Gov. Don Siegelman.
Siegelman, a Democrat, was convicted in 2006 in a case that later turned out to be politically motivated. The case was prosecuted by Republicans in the Bush regime who sought a return to power in that state.
When '60 Minutes' reported on the motivations of the case, the CBS affiliate in Huntsville, Alabama, blocked that episode. Then the station lied by claiming that the blockage was just technical difficulties.
Meanwhile, Karl Rove remains at large even after defying Congress's subpoenas regarding the case.
