NORTHERN ILLINOIS U.S. ATTORNEY: PROSECUTE SCOOTER, GET BAD EVALUATION--GONZO'LL GET YO' MAMMA

In-freaking-credible! Pat FitzGerald may not be my all time favorite prosecutor but it is a little hard to argue that he has not been diligent and effective in representing the government's, as opposed to the Bushies', interests.
So when a political loyalty policeman rates him as "not distinguished" it adds another level of aroma to the idea that a review on the merits was done and US Attys were fired because of poor evaluations. It's time to as the musical question "Who evaluates the evaluators?"
In an otherwise sub-standard performance on "Larry King Live" Senator Obama said Gonzo has abandoned the position of "People's Lawyer" to become a "Presidential Enabler". That's the net effect, even if the "Loyalty Police" were Gonzo's true believer staff and not his Gonzo-ness hisownself.
Next president of either party is going to have to go in there with a wide and deep dung shovel.

Did Fitzgerald know who leaked Plame's name days into his investigation? Did he then continue to pursue it for fear of political backlash? - okay, that's a big "maybe", but one could make a good case for it -
Is such behavior distinguishing?
