What makes you think that Patrick Fitzgerald is a Republican? He has never given even a hint as to his political leanings. Remember that he prosecuted some high profile cases as part of the Clinton DOJ. When Peter Fitzgerald, a truly independent Senator, sponsored him for the U.S. Attorney position, he was opposed by both the Democratic and Republican establishments in the state. Since assuming office, he has prosecuted and obtained the conviction of George Ryan, a former Republican governor, and has also nailed a boatload of Chicago Democratic political operatives, which, truth be told, is like shooting fish in a barrel. He has even convicted several individuals that were two levels below Daley. I would be shocked if he had any political aspirations.

I was actually a bit surprised and impressed that Ashcroft selected Fitzgerald to investigate the so-called Plame affair. Fitzgerald is very tenacious. If he says the case is closed, the case is closed.

When Bush pardons Libby, perhaps he will pardon Berger. Make a note of that. You read it here first.

You need to do more homework before someone starts doubting your credibility.
