Fitz stays

By GottaLaff


I know Patrick Fitzgerald is very popular, and I like him just fine. I'm just not sure he's the hero so many think he is:
U.S. Attorney Patrick Fitzgerald, who brought criminal fraud charges against Rod Blagojevich and Scooter Libby, "will be staying in his job in the Obama administration, even though he was appointed to the position by President George W. Bush," NBC News reports.

"U.S. attorneys are political appointees. The normal practice, when there's a change of political parties in the White House, is for the incoming administration to replace all 93 U.S. attorneys with appointees from the new president's party."
I'm glad he's staying on. There'd be no reason to fire him.
