"Worst" Political Crime Ever? Lying to Fitz
Remember when "national treasure" Patrick Fiztgerald got on TV and said that Blago had committed the wirst political atrocities that he had ever seen (presumably even worse than blowing a CIA operatives cover and getting US allies killed in the line of duty)?

Now, we know what constitutes "the worst" for Fiztgerald---lying to Fitz.

"Former Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich (D), on trial on corruption charges, has been found guilty by a federal jury, but on just one of the 24 counts of which he was charged.

"A Chicago jury said he was guilty of lying to the FBI. But as for the 23 other counts, which included racketeering, conspiracy, mail fraud and an attempt to sell a vacant Senate seat to the highest bidder, the jury was deadlocked."
