Anything can be political. Would it be wrong to exonerate the innocent? Prove it wrong if you have alternate facts.
Maybe I should have said self-serving? I don't have any particular interest one way or the other and even if I did I wouldn't go around repeating this with some independent corroboration. And no, I'm not going to be the one to provide the corroboration; but I'll read it if it comes along.
