Who gets to pick the special counsel, and is that the same thing as a special prosecutor?

Uh oh. It wouldn't be this guy would it?

The Office of Special Counsel in the United States Department of Justice replaced the former Office of the Independent Counsel in 1999. It is charged with investigating alleged misconduct in the federal government's executive branch. The current Special Counsel is Patrick Fitzgerald, who was appointed in 2003 by Deputy Attorney General James B. Comey.

If Boehner had any balls, it would be Gerald Walpin who was the IG that was fired by the regime for ratting out Kevin Johnson (former NBA player and Sacramento Mayor) for corruption.

Patrick Fitzgerald will investigate very diligently...to see if there is any Republican involved who can be charged with perjury.

It's OK for Democrats to commit perjury--the Clinton impeachment trial in 1999 showed that.

Oh..... the same guy who kept Obama, Rahm, Rezko, Valerie, and Baby Jesse out of trouble in the Il. Governor’s senate seat case.
