"A gross politicalization" is Congressman Keith Ellison's assessment of the Department of Justice hiring scandal. He spoke with The UpTake's Ken Avidor about Monica Goodling, a former US Attorney and Bush political appointee, who is accused of finagling the firings of several left-leaning attorneys in order to, as Ellison says,"make sure she infuses the federal bureaucracy with a right-wing stamp."

Eliison also addresses the controversial Don Siegelman case, in which the former Democratic governor of Alabama was yanked out of office to fight corruption charges. A corrupt politician isn't news these days. What is news? The fact that Karl Rove has been accused of cooking up fictional scenarios to politically decapitate Siegelman, and has subsequently ignored subpeonas demanding he answer the charge. Will Rove go to federal prison?

  • @Organjic Obama's administration has continued Bush's policies...hes no better!!!

  • This is probably the only Democrat Representative that doesn't like pork. Oh, he likes to spend tax money like it's going out of style, he just doesn't like pork.

  • Nope, just the ones who voted for little Norm Coleman and Bat shit crazy Michelle Bachman

  • I don't know whether to feel sorry for you ....or just laugh ath your ignorance. I need a good laugh today, so that's the tack I think I'll take.

    -Enjoy the day- (if you're able....)

  • Just don't dare use the J word

  • Oh come on! Is there any branch of the government that the Bush administration HASN'T fucked up!?

  • Well said.

  • No. Thanks for asking.
