Can't wait to see Mr. Potato Head insisting.....he can't remember!
Special Prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald = District Attorney Mike Nifong
This guy must be Nifong's hero. Trumped charges against WH staff beats trumped charges against Frat boys any day.
Fitzgerald should step down and let Nifong handle this case.
Fitzgerald knew about Armitage and told Armitage he had to remain silent.
Fitzgerald is the worst one in all of this by far. I expect Joe Wilson and the RATS to act scummy. It their nature.
Good point. A more competent and less biased prosecutor, such as Nifong, would clearly be an improvement.
He should get 5 years in a federal penitentiary for hiding exculpatory evidence. Sandstone, Minnesota is nice this time of year.
I don't believe that these two high profile cases (Nifong and Fitzgerald) are the exception... they just attract lots of attention, but in my experience, a good number of prosecutors are just like this at all levels, whether the prosecution is political or not. It is not about justice, just getting convictions and furthering their careers. We never see the average Joe Schmoe represented by a public defender getting railroaded by the prosecutor, because the media doesn't see this as news unless its political, or he is a "protected" class, but that doesn't mean it's not happening every day at all levels. It is a symptom of our decaying society and distancing ourselves from God; a system of justice in which there is no justice... the guilty receive a slap on the wrist or walk, while innocents (easy targets) are prosecuted with all the power of the state.
Funny you mentioned God......cause the 'real' justice for these scumbags, (Earle the Squirrel included), will come much later. And it will indeed, and in fact, be administered by 'the' highest judge of all.
'Thou shall not bear false witness' comes immediately to mind.
..it will never happen, the Washington DC elite don't go to prison anymore...you have to have "info" on the other party to cut your deal
A day or two ago my local lib-rag (St.Pete Slimes) had an article showing the figures involved and a recap of the story re LIBBY----NEVER mentioned Armitage!.......Their motto is "merely to tell the truth)---They should say-- to tell only the portion that fits our political outlook.........
Special Prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald = District Attorney Mike Nifong = Ronnie Earl
That's better. ;-)
Conventional wisdom?
No, only the lack of wisdom on those set out to get Bush at the cost of truth and sanity felt that way. Those who viewed the case with anything close to an open mind realized that Joe Wilson was nothing but a cheap, dishonest media slut.
That would be the media's conventional wisdom.
And for this, at the very minimum, Fitzgerald should be disbarred.
