As the CIA leak investigation comes to a conclusion, America’s media have started to sell the public the man in the middle of the maelstrom, special prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald. Tonight, CBS News jumped on the bandwagon in a report filed by Jim Axelrod for “The Evening News” (video link to follow).
Like many such reports in the past week, Axelrod began by trying to dispel the notion that politics are in any way involved in this episode: “44-year-old Pat Fitzgerald, an intense and, by all accounts, apolitical prosecutor who's pursued mob bosses, crooked politicians, and Osama bin Laden like a pit bull with lockjaw.”

Yes, totally predictable. Such total losers.
SeeBS? Aren't they the ones who broadcast forged documents during a political election and refused to acknowledge there was ANY doubt to their legitimacy?
Anyone recall what they had to say about Ken Starr?
BULLZOGBY.
Pull the plug on the MSM
Turn off, Unplug, and Blog.
Fitzgerald IS a good guy. He was a conservative hero before he started investigating the Bush admin and some people turned on him for their own reasons.
No surprise. CBS is a DNC outlet. They proved that when pushing the TxANG fake docs. The great thing is, the "secret" is out. Most people I know who live here in flyover country know exactly who the national media are and what they are up to. They are not gonna fool us anymore.
They repeat their lies 24/7 but they don't have the power to pull another Watergate. This is not 1973.
Really? Did he "get" OBL? I know that the left likes to point out that George W. Bush hasn't yet (unless he was killed in Tora Bora). I figure I would ask if their latest "hero" was any better. If not, why make the claim?
I'd like to know more about his staff and backgrounds of them? I don't that we will never ascertain those pertinent facts.
Came off as pretty much a dimwit to me.
Kangaroo Prosecutor in a Kangaroo Court. Soon the truth will be out.
Contrast this with how they treated Ken Starr.
How differently they'd treat Fitzgerald if he were prosecuting Hillary, I wonder.
If Judge Starr had a press conference where he looked that frightened and unsure of himself, it would have been punchline fodder for months.
"We" may know what the media is up to but I damn well want the history books to explain it to future generations. Especially after all of the "guilt" we have been made to feel over Senator McCarthy.
Zogbyism is worse than McCarthyism. There were communists in America (serving the Soviet Union, no less) yet the media has been CONSISTENTLY wrong in their reports about conservatives.
Islamonazism is our number one threat. Global socialism (liberal dogma as advanced by "political correctness") is our closely followed number two threat.
I don't need damned intellectual despots dictating to the masses. They want to criminalize dissent (hate crime, thought crime), rule by judicial tyranny (they have no power in the legislature and seek "world opinion"), and smear political opponents with headlines and altered photographs and "in depth" news coverage.
Fitzgarulous has prosecuted 60 Republicans and only 2 democrats in his career. Of course he is fair and non - partisan. Hes a kangaroo in a kangaroo court and the sooner the info gets out the better it will be. Unload on these guys. Blog them to death.
Jumped up hopping partisan Kangaroo he really IS!

They bashed Ken Starr, if I remember right. So they're hypocrites. So are any people who defended Ken Starr but are bashing Fitzgerald without any proof that he's political.
Oh yeah, I just knew that a lawyer somewhere would take credit for solving the Osama bin Laden problem.
Dennis Preager was doing the same thing friday
I wish we'd had Fitz prosecuting Bill and Hill instead of Starr, who wasn't an experienced prosecutor and was over his head.
Why not just nickname him "Fitzcaraldo" after the character in Werner Herzog's movie about a demented rubber farmer who dreamed of building an opera house on the Amazon and dragged a ship over a mountain to work towards his Quixotic goal (which he never fully realized)?
