“Also from the article, it doesn’t look like he got any kind of payment or even protection. Barring info otherwise, I’m willing to presume that he did what he thought best after trying the other options. Finding out that sort of thing is what trials are for, after all”
Yes, in a perfect world.
No, he may not have gotten any payments now, but he SURE AS HELL will make a bundle off the book he will write, crucifying every conservative he has ever met as a neo-nazi with an IQ of 15.
Remember those hundreds of missing FBI files on Congressional Republicans that surprisingly showed up in the hands of a schmuck at the White House? We couldn’t even get to the truth of who HIRED him, let alone WHY the SECRET FILES were there. Yeah, there is someone doing HARD time for that one!
I have a long memory of LOTS of cases that were just as, if not MORE outrageous than what this traitorous piece of scum did that were never brought to trial because of political reasons. Prosecutors who just let stuff slide because it was better for their careers than irritate the Washingtonian elite and buddies in the media.
Talking about the current situation with prosecutions and political influence, Mr. Fitzpatrick, the same guy who KNEW at the outset of the Palme investigation EXACTLY WHO told Robert Novak she was a CIA employee AND STILL LOOKED TO HANG IT ON THE BUSH ADMINISTRATION, now says that Blago is the only fish he is after! He is EXPOSING the ENTIRE investigation BEFORE it is complete because he wants to give Mr. Obama time to choose those of his circle he will throw under the bus to keep his name clear.
We do not have a “justice system”, we have a corrupt “LEGAL SYSTEM”.
You talk about the “free press” that we have. Our big time media did EVERYTHING it could to win this last election for Barak Obama and it worked. We now have as President Elect a person who has DIRECT TIES with known terrorist murderers (Ayers) and anti-Semitic lunatics (Rev. Wright & Louis Farrakhan). The same media that branded anyone who DARED use his middle name as a racist will now SMILE WITH APPROVAL as now he will make a POINT of using the SAME name to be sworn into office.
You want to give this guy a medal for leaking a story to the press about how the US was snooping on possible terrorists who were making calls INTO the US, feel free. You want to nominate this guy for the “hero of justice” hall of fame? Go ahead.
He makes me want to puke and I would not waste a tear if he stopped breathing this very instant.

You need to go back on antidepressants, apparently. I didn’t suggest giving him a medal, or nominating him for any sort of hall of fame. I suggested, and still do, that you wanting to have him shot without a trial was at least as bad as what he did. It is. Quite possibly worse, since you should know better.
Feel free to puke, if you need to. Feel free not to shed a tear if he stops breathing naturally. No problem there. Murdering someone because you do not agree with what they did is just as bad as killing people who leave your religion for another, as just one example of evil.
