This GIANT story has received little attention.....make your own conclusions....It is crazy making to think that the man who spilled the beans, is now housed in prison for the next 40 months, while the real criminals get their hands slapped.
Not to mention......Obama and other heads of states, golf with the perpetrators....this sends a message.....a very deep message.
What are we going to do.....will we be silenced as a country...or will we be able to call a spade a spade......

"Jailed UBS Whistleblower Bradley Birkenfeld Makes Tax Day Clemency Request to President Obama"
"A former banker for the Swiss giant UBS who blew the whistle on the biggest tax evasion scheme in US history is asking President Obama today for clemency to coincide with Tax Day, the day US income tax returns are due for most people. In January, Bradley Birkenfeld began serving a forty-month sentence despite playing a key role in uncovering the bank scandal. He first came forward to US authorities in 2007 and began providing inside information on how UBS was helping thousands of Americans evade taxes by hiding billions of dollars in secret Swiss accounts.
