Patrick Fitzgerald: We've Been Taken For A Ride

[Demeter]

AN ALARMING RANT--VERY LONG--DON'T KNOW THE AUTHOR FROM ADAM...WHAT DO YOU THINK?

Who and what is Patrick Fitzgerald? Certainly no one Karl Rove or Dick Chaney need to worry about. He's mostly Rudi Giuliani's and Karl Rove's creation -- that of a hard-working, no nonsense prosecutor of unquestionable moral character. One may wonder why he'd be walking on the Potomac after studying Roe vs. Wade in Law School -- as the old SNL joke goes. We can wonder all we want. Fitzgerald is "untouchable" at the moment. He even kinds of reminds people of Elliot Ness. Not the real one who eventually died of alcoholism or Kevin Costner one -- the Robert Stack one.

Why has no one so much as bothered to connect the dots on "Fitzy" since he was named Special Prosecutor in the Plamegate affair? For one, I suspect it's because the story's a career graveyard for any journalist who does. Such is Karl's grip on the MSM; still as potent and threatening as ever.
......

It's what Rove's sitting on that bothers me -- and it's in Karl's hip pocket. It's Patrick Fitzgerald -- the "Eagle Scout" of the legal profession. Journalists make good money -- great money by my standards -- but when comparing the sedentary way they do background on political appointees -- Rove comes out looking like a track star.

While nearly everyone -- even those in the alternative media -- were back-slapping each other over the Libby indictment, nobody bothered to read the fine print. Patrick Fitzgerald had been carefully groomed in Rudy Giuliani's office, and not just for his prosecutorial and intellectual skills. He's a GOP and neo-con loyalist to the bone. More simply put, a trusted servant who could be counted on to contain criminal investigations -- and subsequent sinking political fortunes -- that often result from large-scale Republican corruption.

Finding a "knight in shining armor" to investigate himself? Only Karl Rove could have pulled off a coup like that. Conservative pundits and politicians are making the rounds saying that Fitzgerald -- in not pressing charges against Rove -- proves Fitzy's "above partisan politics." Go figure. All that nonsense proves is that doublethink's still all the rage in DC.
