Congratulations Fitz!
A happy day indeed for you. Are you going to drink to it, too?
So Black got his kicks speaking with the plain folks in '64, huh? Interesting.
Good job Team Fitz. Happy Monday, indeed!
Libby, pfft!
Congrats!!! Job well done with Black. Too bad there wasn't more to work with in the Libby matter.
The New Jersey Senate just voted to abolish the death penalty. The vote is expected to pass in the House too, as early as Thursday, and then on for Gov. Corzine's signature. I hope it is the beginning of a wave.

If this internet "blog" is really sponsored by US Legal Tour de Force Fitzgerald, I would be slightly chagrined because celebrity isn't cool when it comes to law. In my opinion if Patrick Fitzgerald has anything to do with a cult of personality he should politely disassociate from said web site.
Also use of the word "slammer" for sentence is tacky and a little inhumane. Timothy Doyle
I see Cassandra-like an arrogance to this Irish American man. I can't quite find the quote in King Lear or Hamlet but it regards all great men. It goes something like, "Ahh!but for one some insignificant imperfection that a man of such greatness, talent and honor is brought low!". Success and arrogance cut low the greatest of people. I think it is Kent talking in King Lear. Patrick Fitzgerald has the fire of Bobby Kennedy, but I don't think RFK would do this blog thing. TV court is pathetic.
Please don't go into politics or television court celebrity. And don't whatever you do drink alcohol. Or if you can handle it be your own judge.
The "real" Fitzgerald has NOTHING to do with this blog.
Hey Tim we gots Harriet Miers here tew.
Way yew talk Ah reckon yew look just lihke Doug Louellen and needin work.
In no way can I see RFK and Fitzgerald as similar. Maybe when RFK began prosecuting the mob, but his brother's assassination was a transforming experience for him that turned him into a real mensch. I can no more see Bobby Kennedy "waxing eloquent" over the death penalty with a glass of scotch and a cigar in his hands than I can see Fitzgerald leading a march for the poor and oppressed with the Cesar Chavez of our day.

Small farmers all have a story to tell I'm sure. The children of those farmers damn sure remember and by whom.
I remember once I accidentally milked a cow while in my youth and forgot my dad said she was given a penicillin shot and it went into the bulk tank. 800 gallons of milk went down the drain. $$$ down the drain, but you do not make people sick. Think the big time farmer nowadays gives a crap about people allergic?

If the real Fitzgerald was actually "so arrogant" it would be so funny I couldn't stop laughing...after watching him in court I'd say he's probably not.

It was very dark, icy, quiet and COLD here last night. Did either of you happened to see Letterman last night, (I missed it due to mother earth)? Monday's show or "theater" was very strange indeed. Could have been a very old rerun, but I wonder.

Dear Mr. President, It's so hard to stop a "sleeping psychic's prophecy". Mob rule was predicted after the polar shifts begin, and I came to Fitzgerald, went above and beyond the call of duty to stop the "mob rule" by bringing intel to his associates. Now it is in the FEDS hands. Patrick, I hope you one day ask Daley why he had his own hitman murdered two years ago. Just ask.
I feel betrayed by Patrick, Mr. President- I don't trust anybody but you. Sad, because I begged for help as I helped him, and only one 5 minute phonecall to my father or a reopening of the divorce with Judge Jack Ryan could give me my bit of justice I deserve after so much pain and sacrifice. Please don't forget about me when you leave office. Oh, Al Maliki responded perfectly to what I suggested you do. We know now that he is a True man and knows where to get help when under "threat". It is now time to give the Iraqi people the lives they deserve, the kind of life that would make them want to help us stand up to the Iranian threat. National pride does more than national fear in battle. No doubt, there will be victory. Then a second victory. God told you right when you prayed and asked for guidance before the comittment of war- "someone else would start the war in the middle east/Iraq if we did not enter"
I hope you can understand that God showed me Iraq was going down the wrong path with Saddam, and I had to tell you where he was for capture and justice. I hope the world can forgive me, and if a life of poverty and hopelessness is my punishment, then so be it. It's all I've known when I do God's will. Saddam couldn't keep peace nor ward off Irans, besides turning on his American allies. He would have failed, and changed sides to the "anti zionists".
Oh, so people stop harrassing you, you were in Abilene TX at a bar, my Uncle was there too. He had just finished installing an engine on one of the air force bases. The both of you were at the bar, he was the red head, and you were the "oil man". You bought everyone a round. He remembered you. Funny how synchronicity works. Maybe there are coincidences that mean more than just coincidence.
Hatch was here in Corydon for a month after the psychological op done on me. He tracked me telepathically. He may be back in Nebraska. I was so confused after what was done to me at the family fair, that I didn't go to him as he was screaming for me behind my bedroom window.
Please tell Jeff to call- I have to give him the rest of the intel that needs to go into Senator Mccain's think tank, if there is still hope. Otherwise, providence, civil strife in April I guess. Why did Fitzgerald let me down? Why did the retired guy from homeland security use comedy central to hurt me? Is this how it is? Prophets, Cayce types, healers, we just end up ridiculed and others cruelty drives us to suicidal thoughts? Fitzgerald- one phonecall to Ed 847 891 9408 and tell him he needs to help his daughter after the sexual abuse I went through, because, my father has told me repeatedly to die or become homeless in order to keep himself in denial and looking innocent. Noone would help me for 34 years, and I asked and asked. I begged for someone to sue him on my behalf, but I had to serve my country upmost. Now that I've been "grounded" in Corydon, I have to be honest, I have hope for victory in Iraq, but very little hope that I can continue on. If anyone wants to help reopen my parents divorce by Judge Jack Ryan, call 812 968 5509. What do I have to lose, publicly asking for help? Nothing. Absolutely nothing.
Sincerely, your Patriot List female
littl girl, please get some help. You are obviously in trouble and this forum can do nothing for you.

Just helped to get a post up on the chances of doing away with the death penalty here in Oregon as New Jersey has pointed the way, and learned that Obama is being instrumental in "reforming" the death penalty in Illinois (whatever that means). But good on him. I'd like to see him in the Oval Office, and I'd bet his reforms would be the opposite of Bush and Fitzgerald in putting the condemned on a fast conveyer belt to death.

Lenny went to Dartmouth.
I'd be more careful in offending "little girl" FYI she's closer to the top than you think. Also the NSA monitors every cry for help, or dis-justice handed to her after two years of L5 intel collection for Fitgerald. Enjoy the mob rule coming to you Chicago- and, some of the ops in the NSA are my biggest fans. Not including the Airforce guys that used to celebrate my birthday every year on base. But, what does that matter to people like you? Guilt and conscience is a sign of being human-not many here are. A desire to do good will is a rare quality in a human. One day, when I'm very old, I'll tell you why the President put me on the Patriot list. By then, it won't matter.
Get some help, Little Girl.
Ah don't understand all of it, but Ah reckon Ah understand a good deal of it.
P-fat, remember, she's younger than his friends (he's closer to her dad's age). And his friends went to schools like Dartmouth, U of Chicago, Stanford, Amherst, Harvard, Columbia, W&M ... and she didn't. So it's a struggle. But she has something they don't: youth (and a young physiology with all that implies). Can't buy that.
Yeah, he's a cliche.
Reel men don't eat cliche. mmmmm
Climbers.
Ain't sponsoring that..80 flights?
Stair climbers and runners fascinate me because their "athletic" behavior is metaphor for their lives: lotsa energy spent on useless activity with a patina of social responsibility.
If they want to expend energy on something worthwhile, go build a home with Habitat for Humanity or coach an inner city team. If they want to have "sponsors" on top of their true good deed, fine.
But quit spending energy on meaningless destinations.
Climbers.
As in social climbers.
The exercise is the expression of how much they love themselves.
Pat & Jenni
No need to lecture on social responsibility. Certainly not here.
This blog is one narcissistic outlet.
If only we could stop listening to
"I'm a poor Irish guy" schtick!
Wouldn't it make more sense for Fitz to marry into money (Lenny Gail) than a young chick?
What makes more political sense for someone ambitious like Fitz?
Anonymous at 12:20, Habitat for Humanity is too much hard work and not enough glory when you're just interested in resume building. Celebrities just want lots of credit for lending their names to a cause. Forming a foundation is probably next, plus I think there are tax breaks for those. Very Republican charity. The Brits have an honor (honour?) for the Queen's birthday called the OBE. It means Order of the British Empire but is commonly known in the UK as Other Buggers' Efforts.
Besides, wasn't that ogre Jimmy Carter one of the founders of Habitat for Humanity? Can't be doing anything that was started by him.
The Fitz Myth was spun around him. It's not his fault. Randall and Jim C., on the other hand, got off on it.
And "Jenni" isn't all that young. There's a significant age difference between them. But she'll be 35 next year.
They run together. He wasn't attracted to his intellectual equal. A guy who is marrying for the first time in his late 40s is making up for lost time. Jenni buys him more than a decade.
If Fitzgerald were ambitious, he would have diversified his resume with a much longer time in the private sector and by teaching.
He's topped out with his present job unless he wants to head up the FBI or take an asst. job at main Justice.
Habitat for Humanity was founded in 1976 in Americus, Georgia by Millard and Linda Fuller, whose vision grew out of their experiences at Koinonia Farm.
Yeah.
But Fitzy wont be doing any "pro bono" nor socially conscious work.
Too into himself.
He probably looks down on those who do more than have their name$ appear as "contributors" on community improvement causes.
That's what you get with grads from all those Ivy colleges mentioned above.
Condescencion.
They talk about schools in terms of "tiers". Ain't that a clue?
Actually, if there's any correlation between being an Ivy grad and social responsibility, it's probably positive.
Fitz came from a working class background and, if he's like other such guys, felt an obligation to his parents to go for money rather than for something socially meaningful but low paying. Government service is somewhat socially responsible but it tends to attract aggressive, rather than altruistic, people.
All law schools are ranked in terms of "tiers." The LSAT score, to a large degree, determines which tier a student can be accepted into. The first semester grades determine the summer job which determines the post-grad job which determines one's professional course.
It's pretty sick, really.
Anon 2:00
Fitz is in his 40's, far removed from whatever his parents may have expected from him.
I dont think Fitz is anything he represents to be. However, I do not know what to make of this constatnt raising his humble background or blaming Randall for his myth.
Like he has absolutely no responsibility for being who is is TODAY.
In May at Amherst, Fitzgerald talked about "breaking the news" to his mother that he was going to take a short break from a high-paying job into public service. His mother died the next year and he's now in his 20th year of government work. That tenure has easily come at a cost of $2 million to him (assuming a very conservative $100k/year loss in salary).
Firedoglake really built up the Fitz myth (and the irony is rich). The only thing Fitzgerald has done that played into the myth-making was posing for the cover of the Chicago Tribune Magazine. Other than that, he has flown under the radar vis-a-vis with what he could have done.
And I was impressed he kept his personal life out of the media. Even LHP was taken by surprise, and she thought she had an inside track.
Personal life out of the media???
How could Randall announce his engagement (personal matter) to the press from Fitz office without his knowing about it or consenting to it?
Who are you kidding?
Sounds to me he plays games, lots of games.
We can only hope no one will lose his/her life because of this zealot.
His engagement came as a surprise to most media-watchers (including WaPo, who thought they had the proverbial finger on the pulse...). Actually, word leaked out about Fitz's engagement after a Regis event at the beginning of October. Randall just confirmed it a couple of weeks later.
The soundbite about Letzkus is unfortunate because it's so contrived. She's a nice, young(er) middle American divorcee with a middle American education who runs for a hobby. The soundbite is meant to be more intriguing than it is.
It reminds me of the press that swirled around Federico Pena's fiance 20 years ago (she was a "world class" runner and Harvard grad, etc. who went to law school because of daddy and hubby requests -- it all turned out badly).
I hear Rachel is leaving today and she wishes Pat and Jenni much happiness.
Mt. Zion!
all this high faluting talk gots me putting grey poupon on ma french fry pertaters.
Anonymous at 4 p.m., most people and most media are not interested in Fitzgerald anymore. If you ask people where I live if they know who he is, I'd bet only 1 out of 25 could give you the answer. I also read the blogs a lot and can say that I only saw the announcement in the Chicago Tribune (although I know it was in the WaPo), here, and in some comments on FDL (not a post). His moment has come and gone and he didn't live up to it. He'd better get used to it.
A grade school teacher used to make us repeat this rhyme:
"A wee little worm in a hickory nut sang happily as can be: I live in the heart of the whole round world, and it all belongs to me."
mmmmmmm...
ah lihke thet leetle werm...mmmm...mmmm
The people who were interested in Fitzgerald once still are. The other ones never were and never will be. His life will be easier now.
True.
Fitz has as many admirers as any guy could wish for. He is well regarded professionally, has supportive friends and now, the love of a young nice girl who will bring joy to his overworked heart.
So who cares what anyone else has to say?
We could only envy him.
Someone stole my thunder..but before I leave I want to personally wish Pat and his beloved the very best.
Bloggers, wish me luck!
Special goodbye to you, slingblade.
Too bad we'll never get together so I can steal some of your fries.... I'm sad.
c.a. ...
P-FAT:
They lived up in Wrigleyville early in their marriage.
And her mom is older than her dad, which may have led to the divorce.
Cad.
I wonder how comfortable his older friends (not old, but from NY)are with this, especially Mrs. Comey who some commentor unkindly always points out is slightly older than her husband. I would think that his earlier friends and family had been trying to set him up with nice educated Irish Catholic girls from staunchly Catholic families for years.
People seem to think Fitz is Catholic. He's not.
There's old and then there's OLD.
Not to interrupt the stream of consciousness here but has anyone seen the Verizon Wireless commercial where the teenager gets the pony? If not, it's worth stopping to watch.

'the mom was older than the dad, may have led to their divorce'
more likely she outgrew him or he didn't keep it zipped up-boys can be slow to mature
on the other hand, biologically speaking -if a woman marries at age 38, she should marry a 31 yr old man. I wonder why the geezers talking down "old moms" never mention that.

Defective Body armor CEO seeks release from jail
Sat Dec 22, 10:25 AM ET
CENTRAL ISLIP, N.Y. - The former head of the leading supplier of body armor to the U.S. military, facing federal charges in an alleged fraud scheme, may be freed after two months in jail but only under house arrest, a judge has ruled.
And instead of the usual bail posting, David H. Brooks must convince prosecutors that they have full control of his millions in assets so he cannot use them to flee, U.S. District Judge Joanna Seybert said Friday.
Prosecutors have accused the founder and former chief executive of DHB Industries Inc. of refusing to disclose the location of millions of dollars held overseas, including $4 million recently sent to spiritual leaders in the African nation of Senegal.
The spiritual leaders were paid to pray for Brooks' acquittal, according to testimony at a hearing Friday, but Assistant U.S. Attorney John Martin characterized the expenditures as "quasi-religious."
Brooks' attorney, Paul Shechtman, would say only that "no money was sent to Senegal to hide assets."
If an agreement can be finalized, Brooks could be released within two weeks, Martin said.
Brooks, 53, has pleaded not guilty to charges of insider trading, fraud and tax evasion.
No trial date has been set.
Prosecutors say he garnered more than $185 million by falsely inflating the value of the inventory of DHB's top product, a vest designed to withstand rifle fire and shrapnel, and then selling company stock after the doctored accounting boosted its price. He is also accused of failing to report bonus payments and using company money for lavish personal expenses.
---
Interesting, why does he think he could pay spiritual leaders of a country 95% Muslim, 5% Christian (mostly Roman Cath) to pray to release him, a Jew? Makes no sense...cash trumps religion every time with these wise guys. What phonies.

Slingblade, did you know Paul McCartney has a brother named Michael?
Patrick Fitzgerald better be one of those 1000, shame on him if he's not.
The poor troops, they think America really is at the mall. Coal should be in congress stocking for Christmas. They suck-nearly all of them.
Happy Holidays to everyone passing through:)
BBC NEWS | Programmes | From Our Own Correspondent | Bible bashing dying out in Kansas
Yep, Phelps has been out there with those signs more than 15 years ago when I took my boys to see the WWE wrestlers. Thank goodness my kids were too young to read yet I still had to explain why those people with signs were out there screaming at cars at the expo center where the wrestling was held. I always wondered where they got their money.
(An interesting story online about Phelp's horrid childhood. Can't remember who wrote it.) Break the cycles of hate.

Marina Oswald : Biography
One cannot help but feel much empathy for this brave woman and her children. It certainly seems like someone lied and covered their own behinds.
Imagine what the Kennedy children have felt like among others? Talk about selfish, evil people in the world. It is time to stop the hate.
no ah deedn't but cain had uh bruther named abel.
twern't no kaiser blades way back then ah reckon.
ummm...hmmm
It was reported that Marina kept a framed photo of JFK above the Oswald's bed and riduculed his sexual peformance in comparison to how Kennedy's was percieved.
Great way to push a mixed up guy over the edge.

Mr. Pres- if you still check this for clues (I hope you do) who do I trust- give the plan to Fitzgerald like the NSA says? That would just be Phase 1 anyway. I also had a little "epiphany" on the part of my industry that deals with petroleum. I think I'l just stay the course since God told me this was my calling when I started learning about it on the Kirkland AFB. Can you ask Mayor Daley why he retracted Magnum opus spec gas inc 1.5 million dollar bid (my bid,my corp) and why when he claimed it was retracted for terrorist insurance- all his cronies were the ones who got the money through the Daley Insurance, Bonds etc. Patrick really didn't care that I turned in the Duffs after my spec plan went to George Ryan's office and my cousin Ryan Katcher was murdered in George Ryan's hometown of Kankakee-also near Peotone Project that Tony Perry and I were working on. Can't anyone see the connection?

The Raw Story | Fox praises 'Christmas in Fallujah' anti-war song
I have to disagree with Raw Story about the meaning of this song. Billy Joel said he wrote this song not so much as anti-war as we have forgotten that our guys and gals are across the world away from home. (He doesn't believe in telling people how to think and neither should anyone. BUT bring our kids and soldiers home soon!)
BTW, all this old music, some I never knew existed, that is coming out reminds me of my youth. Let it jog your memory and be a dinner topic with those relatives that are hard to talk with at family gatherings. You might be surprised at what you find out.
P-FAT,
Fitzgerald could apply for Filip's judgeship, assuming he wants to stay in Chicago. His fiancee is a midwesterner and her family is here.
But the head judge in Chicago and Fitz butted heads a couple of years ago ... so it may not be smoothe sailing for him. Fitz is more than qualified. The NDIL is chuckfull of mediocre judges.
Merry Christmas!
ESPN Page 2 - TMQ: SuperCoach?
I was awed at my oldest son at our family dinner. We were all discussing racism, religion, and adults on "Facebook" now. Anyway, my youngest (they both attend the same college) said he didn't see any problems at school. My oldest said he did, the football team seems to hate women or has a degrading attitude about women. (Funny the stadium is called, "_____ Family Stadium".) Coach, you got a problem.
I got to tell you it warms this mom's heart that the kid recognizes that type of attitude. Both my sons won awards in high school for football and were in good in basketball. I'm glad they didn't listen to their high school coach after all. They just play sports now for fun and exercise.
Team sports should not be about learning to hate the opposite gender. Someone missed the point completely. Even in high school in the last few years it has changed, no wonder some kids don't want to play. Especially the girls, it should be a lesson for both sides.
Something for parents and leaders to think about, break the cycles.

Jamie Leigh Jones, Wings of Justice Honoree
Dear Patrick J Fitzgerald,
As you read this, I don't want you to feel sorry for me because I believe
everyone will die someday. My name is Harry Jones, a business merchant in
Dubai, in the UNTIED ARAB EMIRATES. I have been diagnosed with esophageal
cancer which was discovered very late, due to my laxity in carrying for my
health.
I have decided to give alms to charity organizations, as I want this to be one
of the last good deeds I do on earth. So far, I have distributed money to some
charity organizations in the U.A.E, Algeria and Malaysia. Now that my health
has deteriorated so badly, I cannot do this myself any more.
I once asked members of my family to close one of my accounts and distribute
the money which I have there to charity organization in Bulgaria and Pakistan ;
they refused and kept the money to themselves. Hence, I do not trust them
anymore, as they seem not to be contended with what I have left for them.
The last of my money which no one knows of is the sum of US$12.6 Million which
i deposited in a consignment as personal valuables to a security and finance
firm in London. I will want you to help me in collecting the deposit and
dispatch it to charity organizations.
God bless you.
Harry Jones

Bill W. - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Despite his programme's insistence on "rigorous honesty", Bill W. lived a lie. He had innumerable affairs and a long-term mistress with whom he contemplated eloping to Ireland (the scandal would probably have destroyed Alcoholics Anonymous). Susan Cheever's final judgement is unblinking but forgiving: "Bill Wilson never held himself up as a model: he only hoped to help other people by sharing his own experience, strength and hope. He insisted again and again that he was just an ordinary man". An ordinary man who nonetheless did one extraordinary thing."[25]"

Clinton surrogate criticizes Obama - First Read - msnbc.com
"-- Obama's full remarks before the 2004 convention: "In a recent interview, he declined to criticize Senators Kerry and Edwards for voting to authorize the war, although he said he would not have done the same based on the information he had at the time. 'But, I'm not privy to Senate intelligence reports,' Mr. Obama said. 'What would I have done? I don't know. What I know is that from my vantage point the case was not made.' But Mr. Obama said he did fault Democratic leaders for failing to ask enough tough questions of the Bush administration to force it to prove its case for war. 'What I don't think was appropriate was the degree to which Congress gave the president a pass on this,' he said." (New York Times, 7/26/04)"
Funny, on the network news the only one that is slinging mud is Obama and Huckabee. The rest aren't getting much airtime. Maybe Obama wants it to "appear" that way.
I'd rather have see the pain in someone's eyes struggling to speak about their youth, then the arrogance of someone pulling the wool over people's eyes.
This for sure, there will be a shortage of transportation specialists!
