Free America's Political Prisoners Site - Support Siegelman, Minor: Petition, Write LTTE, Congress
Edited on Fri Feb-20-09 07:16 AM by Hissyspit
If your have read this thread, "Sad News On Paul Minor Situation From Larisa Alexandrova," and are feeling frustrated about what there is to do, here is a website that has been set up to support them with a petition and other resources:

The Victims

Don Siegelman
Paul. S. Minor
Wes Teel
Oliver Diaz
Roger Shuler
John Whitfield

The Villains

Karl Rove
Department of Justice
Bush Administration

"Most of us believe that the idea of political prisoners in the US is preposterous. One of the proudest features of American life is the fairness of our justice system. But the Justice Department of the Bush Administration not only undermined the impartiality of US Attorneys, it pushed them to carry out a series of politically motivated prosecutions that shame American justice. Innocent people have had their freedom taken from them. They are wasting away in federal prisons; undeserved tragedies are being visited upon their families; productive careers are being ruined. One of the foundations of Democracy has been harmed and must be put right. For the justice system to be restored, this injustice must be undone.

Please help us.

We must get the word out and do something about this shocking scandal. Americans find it hard to believe that our government would use the massive power and resources of the federal government in order to destroy political opponents. But that is what the Bush Justice Department did.

The mission of Free America's Political Prisoners is to raise the public's consciousness about what is happening, create a public outcry against the scandal, and demand that the Congress, the courts, and the President free America's political prisoners, make restitution, and restore justice."
