The "Madness, Madness" quote was Fitzgerald beginning his closing argument in the Scooter Libby perjury trial. It's where Fitzgerald played Captain Obvious in
the quest to bag someone, anyone, in the Bush Administration for
disclosing that Valerie Plane kept the Xerox machine filled with toner
in her CIA office at Langley. Don't get me started, you know the story.
Here's why Fitzgerald is a punk. Almost from day one he knew that it
was the openly disloyal Richard Armitage, Colin Powell’s deputy at the
State Department, who whispered Plane's name to Robert Novak Didn't
matter. Bagging Bush, Cheney, or Karl Rove was the career maker, and he was
determined to trip one of them up. In the end he had to settle for
Scooter who, after answering the same question 100 times, changed the
syntax in some of his answers. Perjury cried Fitz.
The next time I hear Fitzgerald's name, he's acting as the US Attorney in Chicago. And get this - he had run wire-taps on Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich, who, we were told, had been trying to sell Barack Obama's Senate seat. Caught on tape:
a veritable who's who of Illinois Democrat pols. Names like Obama,
Jesse Jackson Jr., Valerie Jarrett, Rahm Emanuel, blah-blah-blah. The
biggest crooks in the nation's crookedest city, and he had them on
tape! Today a jury found Blago guilty of telling a lie. That's it.
Patrick Fitzgerald; a punk, and now a putz. All the qualifications to
be named to Obama's cabinet, so maybe he's not stupid.
