Here are two items re: Don Siegelman, whose appeal is scheduled for Dec. 9.

First, an appeal for Don's defense fund. All those who would like to see Karl
Rove and his henchmen (and henchwomen) brought to justice should dig deep,
and help Don out. (As it's unlikely that Obama will go after Rove, we need to
help those who will do it.)

Also, here's an update on the appeal, with Glynn Wilson reporting that the
case against Don could be dismissed on Tuesday.

Support Don Siegelman's Legal Defense Fund today, before

Dear Supporter,

Since I wrote you last week, we have seen an outpouring of support 
from our online community in my effort to raise the $30,000 I need to 
pay legal expenses for my appeal on December 9th.

But, with less than one week left, I still need your help to reach that goal.

<http://salsa.wiredforchange.com/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=EwrufI0A9gpsDXdNp1lVV3k94zmi3C6K>Please
 
donate what you can today -- so I can have the resources I need to 
keep fighting back and to hold Karl Rove accountable!

Not only is my freedom at stake, but so is the preservation of our 
democracy. If Karl Rove can turn the powers of government against me 
and get away with it, it can happen to anybody.

Winning my appeal on December 9th is the first step in turning all 
this around and will give Congress more incentive to dig for the 
truth. We must stop the unchecked political prosecutions and election 
engineering that put me in prison and threaten the very base of our 
democracy. But I can't do it alone.

<http://salsa.wiredforchange.com/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=nxO72WZ26eFrHPAq%2BE5OHHk94zmi3C6K>Donate
 
today -- and help take the Department of Justice back from political 
operatives like Karl Rove.

Exposing Rove's misuse of power within the Department of Justice is 
essential to protecting the future Americans voted for on November 
4th and ensuring no one is ever subjected to the same politically 
motivated prosecution I endured ever again.

My Legal Defense Fund can accept contributions of any size from any 
source. Please give as much as you are comfortable with giving to 
help me meet my legal expenses.

Thank you again for your continued support. Rest assured I will keep 
fighting, one way or another, to ensure that Karl Rove is brought to 
justice once and for all.

Thank you and God bless,



Don Siegelman
Governor of Alabama
1999-2003

Appeals Panel Could Drop Siegelman Case Tuesday

Juror Misconduct Investigation Re-Opened


In light of recent information from a new whistle-blower in the Bush 
Justice Department's
political prosecutions still under investigation by Congress, 
including the case of former
Alabama Governor Don Siegelman, the federal court in Montgomery has 
re-opened the
investigation into juror misconduct, according a document just filed 
with the appeals court
in Atlanta.

And the three-judge panel could drop the case against Siegelman and 
HealthSouth founder
Richard Scrushy next Tuesday, Dec. 9, in Atlanta.
