Fitz...a set up.....to stop the crime from actually being committed...political hack...Fitz
Did you read the article
It was the tribune that forced Fitzgerald to move early
does seem that way, at this point at least.
It’s no longer the Department of Justice. It is the Department of Pre-Crime.
There's nothing inherently hack-ish of a U.S. Attorney attempting to "stop [a] crime from actually being committed." In a terrorism investigation, should the prosecutor wait until the bomb explodes? Of course not! So, in this case, which strikes at the heart of our democracy, why should we expect Fitzgerald to sit back and watch someone obtain a U.S. Senate seat through bribery/corruption?
Look, I'd like to take Obama down as much as anyone else (though, judging from the indictment, I don't think this case was ever going to lead all the way to the top), but I don't think it's worth a prosecutor sitting back and watching our democracy get bought & sold
Not to mention that, in this case, numerous crimes had already been committed.
