http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Don_SiegelmanThat is the jist of it. He was a dem governor in a state where the GOP wanted to take over so they manufactured false charges and had him arrested. They also stole the 2002 election by committing vote fraud in the middle of the night.
Now his supporters are being terrorized.
Also Karl Rove is supposedly involved, and so are the justice deparment workers who chose to go along with the Bush politization of the justice department. That is supposedly why so many members of the justice department are being picked from schools like 'messiah college', which has a subpar law school with a massive biblicaln slant. The reason is that people who attend law schools which have a right wing religious slant are more likely to go along with illegal corruption in an effort to 'stop liberals'. Basically the justice department is being staffed with corrupt right wing religious fanatics because they will break the law in an effort to harm democrats and help republicans.
So it is a mix of election fraud, political prosecution against political enemies, domestic terrorism against whistleblowers, abuse of the justice department and all can be tied into the ex-advisor for Bush (Rove).
