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."</p> <p>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?</p> </div> <a href="/blog/49076-karl-rove-in-prison-stripes-rep-keith-ellison-speaks">Watch the video</a> http://bravenewfilms.org/blog/46723-homeowners-get-help-in-dc-but-not-from-government 2008-08-24T08:40:32Z The Real News <object width="375" height="308"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/15BPNaokq9U&border=0&rel=0"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/15BPNaokq9U&border=0&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="375" height="308"></embed></object> <a href="/blog/46723-homeowners-get-help-in-dc-but-not-from-government"><img src="http://bravenewfilms.org/pictures/medium/55203" width="140" height="105" border="0" align="left" style="border: solid 1px black;" /></a> <div class="post_content"> <p>More at <a href="http://therealnews.com/c.php?c=080701YT">therealnews.com</a> <br />Neighborhood Assistance Corporation of America helps tens of thousands restructure their home mortgage</p> </div> <a href="/blog/46723-homeowners-get-help-in-dc-but-not-from-government">Watch the video</a> http://bravenewfilms.org/blog/46650-john-mccain-town-hall-07-23-08 2008-07-31T14:22:04Z IssueAlliance <object width="375" height="308"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/ZwOkulZlr_k&border=0&rel=0"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/ZwOkulZlr_k&border=0&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="375" height="308"></embed></object> <a href="/blog/46650-john-mccain-town-hall-07-23-08"><img src="http://bravenewfilms.org/pictures/medium/55091" width="140" height="105" border="0" align="left" style="border: solid 1px black;" /></a> <div class="post_content"> <p>John McCain <br />Town Hall Meeting <br />Wilkes-Barre, PA 07/23/08</p> <p>TRANSCRIPT: <br />AUDIENCE MEMBER: "Now that you're the Republican nominee for President of these United States, do you have any second thoughts on McCain-Feingold campaign finance reform?"</p> <p>JOHN MCCAIN: "This meeting is adjourned. [crowd laughs] I do not. I believe that today, still, the influence of special interests in Washington [has] crowded out the interests of the average citizens of the United States of America who are not represented by big money interests in Washington. Before we passed our legislation, it was routine for a trial lawyer, a union leader or a corporation executive to be called by a powerful member of Congress and say, I need a 6-figure or sometimes 7-figure check from you, and by the way, your legislation is up before my committee next week. And that's where all this earmarking and pork-barrelling also that corrupted us. </p> <p>"Corruption. I don't use that word lightly, my friends. We have former members of Congress residing in federal prison. If that isn't corruption, I don't know what is. So, we tried very hard. And I'll continue to try very hard to reduce the influence of special interests.</p> <p>"Look at the energy bill. I voted against the energy bill. Senator Obama voted for it. Look at the farm bill. [...] </p> <p>"So I'll continue to work to try to clean up and reduce--maybe never eliminate, but reduce the influence of special interests in Washington, DC. And I'd like to tell you that I think that in Washington today that your interests are uppermost. And I don't think they are in a lot of the legislative business that we do. So we'll have to continue to work to try to make sure that we can eliminate some of these very terrible practices that have become commonplace. And I also will count on some of our citizens to exercise their voice at the ballot booth."</p> <p>LABEL: JM PA 07-23 (SD#1LS) AKCGW-ClipA</p> <p>If you'd like to acquire a high resolution version of this clip visit: <a href="http://issuealliance.box.net/shared/gifj5tp40c">issuealliance.box.net</a> </p> </div> <a href="/blog/46650-john-mccain-town-hall-07-23-08">Watch the video</a> http://bravenewfilms.org/blog/46393-re-batman-the-dark-knight-trailer-hd 2008-08-08T14:52:08Z MayorGalvan <object width="375" height="308"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/w32LhN4hhdI&border=0&rel=0"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/w32LhN4hhdI&border=0&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="375" height="308"></embed></object> <a href="/blog/46393-re-batman-the-dark-knight-trailer-hd"><img src="http://bravenewfilms.org/pictures/medium/54574" width="140" height="105" border="0" align="left" style="border: solid 1px black;" /></a> <div class="post_content"> <p>Video Cam Direct Upload</p> </div> <a href="/blog/46393-re-batman-the-dark-knight-trailer-hd">Watch the video</a> http://bravenewfilms.org/blog/46207-re-hi-i-m-a-marvel-and-i-m-a-dc-iron-man-and-batman-4 2008-08-03T10:45:50Z MayorGalvan <object width="375" height="308"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/Cm2DGWwqGMQ&border=0&rel=0"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/Cm2DGWwqGMQ&border=0&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="375" height="308"></embed></object> <a href="/blog/46207-re-hi-i-m-a-marvel-and-i-m-a-dc-iron-man-and-batman-4"><img src="http://bravenewfilms.org/pictures/medium/54194" width="140" height="105" border="0" align="left" style="border: solid 1px black;" /></a> <div class="post_content"> <p>Video Cam Direct Upload</p> </div> <a href="/blog/46207-re-hi-i-m-a-marvel-and-i-m-a-dc-iron-man-and-batman-4">Watch the video</a> http://bravenewfilms.org/blog/43410-democracy-now-headlines 2008-07-18T18:35:30Z I Want Democracy Now <object width="375" height="308"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/NNkD4Ls0ueA&border=0&rel=0"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/NNkD4Ls0ueA&border=0&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="375" height="308"></embed></object> <a href="/blog/43410-democracy-now-headlines"><img src="http://bravenewfilms.org/pictures/medium/49715" width="140" height="105" border="0" align="left" style="border: solid 1px black;" /></a> <div class="post_content"> <p>Today's Headlines</p> <p> * Supreme Court Rejects D.C.
