LANSING, Mich. (AP) -- Embattled lawyer Geoffrey Fieger on Wednesday asked Gov. Jennifer Granholm to appoint an independent prosecutor to take over an investigation into his 2004 election ads criticizing a state Supreme Court justice.

A Fieger attorney wrote a letter to the Democratic governor requesting that she - not Republican Attorney General Mike Cox - find a special prosecutor to oversee the campaign finance probe. Cox last month admitted an extramarital affair and accused Fieger of blackmailing him unless he stopped the investigation.

Hopefully not even Gov Grandstand will have the nerve to stick her Canadian neck out for this worm.

Sounds like Granholm and Feiger are going to perpetrate their own little Saturday Night Massacre.



I can't imagine that Granholm would be stupid enough to do this. If it turns out that Feiger is crooked, she'd be right in the middle of it, accused of helping him to cover up.

Of course, Granholm is not the sharpest knife in the drawer.
