ALABAMA GOV. ALLEGEDLY PROSECUTED 'AS A RESULT OF ROVE TALKING TO' DOJ:

Last month, House leaders began an investigation into improper
communications between former White House adviser Karl Rove and the Justice
Department regarding the prosecution of former Democratic Alabama governor
Don Siegelman, who was jailed in June on federal corruption charges.

Yesterday, House Judiciary Committee Chairman John Conyers (D-MI) released
the full 143- page testimony of Alabama lawyer Jill Simpson, who said that
Rove directly intervened in the prosecution. "They were pursuing Don
Siegelman as a result of Rove talking to the Justice Department," she said.
Simpson testified that Rove had assured Republicans involved in the
prosecution that Siegelman would face Mark Fuller, an Alabama federal judge
who reportedly "hated" Siegelman.

Simpson said that Rove told these operatives that "Fuller would hang Don
Siegelman." The Committee is expected to investigate the Bush
administration's alleged interference in the activities of the Department of
Justice next week. As Time noted, if Simpson's testimony is accurate, "it
would show direct political involvement by the White House in federal
prosecutions -- a charge leveled by Administration critics in connection
with the . attorney scandal."

Just wait until the shit hits the fan. No need for impeachment, simply
write the arrest warrants.
