A toast to Sen. Peter Fitzgerald R-Illinois

[chiburb]

He fought tooth and nail, against Democrats and Repukes alike, to name 3 INDEPENDENT US Attorneys for the 3 districts of Illinois. One of those, Patrick Fitzgerald, has already imprisoned most of ex-Gov. George Ryan's staff, and Ryan will be next. But that isn't why the toast...

Today, Patrick Fitzgerald interviewed the Commander-in Thief for almost 1 1/2 hours about Valerie Plame. Unka Dick wasn't there to pull the strings, just Chimp's "personal" lawyer. Did anyone even dream about that happening? And who knows what's next...

To the Fitzgeralds !!!

1. Yeah, Unka Dick was cussing out Sen. Leahy on the Senate

floor CNN just reported. I didn't hear the details.

2. I know Fitzgerald is supposed to be a "clean jean" but I still worry -

he is a republican appointee.

3. if anything

he is a legal beagle, not a political hack, and that is something we have sorely needed.

Anyone catch the latest Repuke crime allegations? Hospital construction? woo hooo! more jail terms for the crooks, I suspect.

4. Fitzgerald's first love is the law

Fitzgerald's second love is being a bulldog.

If he cannot be intimidated by Chicago politics, the GOP RW twist-arm party doesn't have a chance.
