Well, look at this. Fitzgerald, who is pretty much a legend in NY due to his work on terrorism (he is after all, widely considered an expert on Bin Laden and Al Qaeda, and drew up the first indictment of Bin laden when no one knew who the hell Bin Laden was) was ranked as "not distinguishing" himself by our so-called "justice" department. This just happened to have occured while he was investigating the Plame leak.
How anyone can continue to support these shit-bags, who put anything and everything over the safety and security of the American people, is beyond me. I seriously consider supporters of this adminstration to be apologists for traitors at this point.
Jesus Christ the whole load of them should be in prison.

U.S. Attorney Patrick J. Fitzgerald was ranked among prosecutors who had "not distinguished themselves" on a Justice Department chart sent to the White House in March 2005, when he was in the midst of leading the CIA leak investigation that resulted in the perjury conviction of a vice presidential aide, administration officials said yesterday.
The ranking placed Fitzgerald below "strong U.S. Attorneys . . . who exhibited loyalty" to the administration but above "weak U.S. Attorneys who . . . chafed against Administration initiatives, etc.," according to Justice documents.
The chart was the first step in an effort to identify U.S. attorneys who should be removed. Two prosecutors who received the same ranking as Fitzgerald were later fired, documents show.
Fitzgerald's ranking adds another dimension to the prosecutor firings, which began as a White House proposal to remove all 93 U.S. attorneys after the 2004 elections and evolved into the coordinated dismissal of eight last year, a move that has infuriated lawmakers and led to calls for Attorney General Alberto R. Gonzales to resign.
