Fitzgerald acted like he was prosecuting a triple murder, when in reality it was a political case involving the memories of a few reporters with a staffer about an ongoing story in the news.
Again, Fitzgerald claimed during the press conference that he was prosecuting a case of "national security" of the most important order.
I was floored when I heard that, almost fell over laughing.
National Security -- baloney. He was obsessed with charging Libby, an honest patriotic American who donated years in public service only to be wrongly implicated in a political scandal that Fitzgerald blindly refused to see.
If Fitzgerald eventually charges Rove, I feel the US Attorney General, if he can, must shut him down immediately under the threat of malfeasance of office charges.
Fitzgerald is so full of himself he stunk today.
I personally found something very frightening about the man--what I cannot say, except the general feeling that he is someone with far too much power and enjoying that position.
"I feel the US Attorney General, if he can, must shut him down immediately under the threat of malfeasance of office charges."
I've heard and read that Fitz is acting as AG, since John Ashcroft and his Deputy recused themselve and the Deputy handed the case to Fitz. Therefore, can the AG shut down this case?
