Ya got me. It’s been theorized that Fitzpatrick is deep-down a Clintonite & that explains his (mis)handling of the Plame-affair as well as Rezko. I don’t know of much that supports that theory, however.

From a Novak article:

“Actually, in my first interview with Fitzgerald after he was named special prosecutor, he indicated that he knew Armitage was my leaker. I assumed that was the product of detective work by the FBI. In fact, Armitage had turned himself in to the Justice Department three months before Fitzgerald entered the case, without notifying the White House or releasing me from my requirement of confidentiality.”

After reading Fitz's closing argument in the Libby railroading, I know he was working against VP Cheney...Fitz saw himself as a knight in shining armor...saving us from an evil war.

He simply did not like the political pushback by VP Cheney's office, against Wilson's lies about Iraq.

This essentially shut up, and shut down, Bush, Cheney, Rove, all Republican spokesmen and officeholders, for 3 years.

Fitz will protect a pol he likes, no doubt about it.
