After the Department of Justice investigated itself and found itself "Not Guilty",
Chairman John Conyers and Members of the U.S. House Judiciary Committee
told Attorney General Holder, in a letter of September 25, 2009, that
the Department of Justice had done an inadequate job of reviewing
government prosecutors misconduct in the Siegelman case.
Chairman Conyers and the Committee
urged Eric Holder --to ensure that fresh eyes, with no connection to
the underlying case and no investment in any particular outcome, lead
and conduct this crucial review!"
But to add insult to injury, President Obama has not replaced the Rove/Bush U.S. Attorney who is prosecuting me. Remember, her office indicted me during my reelection campaign, while her husband was my opponent's campaign manager!
Here's what one California observer had to say: "I called Eric Holder's office this morning.
I went through the spiel about firing this particular, unethical, Bush
DOJ holdover and replace her with someone who has honor and respects
the concept of justice. I'm so sick of the tyranny of the minority
in this country. How do we get President Obama to throw the scoundrels
under the bus and stand up for righteousness?"
We are continuing to make progress, but we need your personal help! Please let the President know
how you feel about getting rid of the Rove/Bush U.S. Attorney for the
Middle District of Alabama and replacing her with an honest and ethical
one! This very important, not only to me, but to everyone in our
country who sees the absolute necessity of having honest prosecutors!
Please let the President know that you want the U.S. Attorney for the Middle District of Alabama, Leura Canary, immediately replaced and investigated for her actions in my case [phone: (202)456-1414; fax:(202)456-2416]. A
phone call or hand written note would be greatly appreciated. It would
also help a great deal if you sent it to your member of Congress and
your two U.S. Senators.
If you want tocontact the White House quickly and easily and let the President know how you feel about getting rid of the Rove/Bush prosecutors go to www.FireRoveProsecutors.com to send your message.
Thanks so much,
Don Siegelman
