Patrick Fitzgerald Wins, but America Loses

It’s a sad day in Washington that a man who devoted years of his life to public service was ransacked by an overzealous prosecutor who won a conviction on a charge that’s unrelated to the original matter he was summoned to investigate.
Follow that? Yeah, that explains the foolishness of special prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald’s investigation that today led to the conviction of Scooter Libby, former chief of staff to Vice President Cheney.
Inevitably, the liberal media are already asking questions such as: Will President Bush pardon Libby? What kind of political fallout will he face? Should Cheney resign?
