President to "Pardon Governor Don Siegelman". The American Trial Lawyer Magazine called Don Siegelman “America's #1 Political Prisoner." In Jack Abramoff’s book, Capitol Punishment: The Hard Truth About Washington Corruption From America's Most Notorious Lobbyist, he admits that one of his top priorities was “stopping Don Siegelman.” Don Siegelman said in 2007 at his first sentencing; “ If this ruling stands....a rogue Justice Department can prosecute contributors and elected officials they simply do not like." Please petition the President of the United States for clemency in Governor Siegelman's case by signing the petition on Change.org and posting this message publicly however you can. By doing so we may one day clarify the law and keep our democracy and freedom intact. ................................................................................................. |
