GOP investigating the investigator

"In Watergate's 'Saturday Night Massacre' Nixon ordered special prosecutor Archibald Cox, Jr. to be fired. Both Attorney General Elliot Richardson and Deputy Attorney General William Ruckelshaus resigned rather than fire Cox," writes Dave Johnson. "Next in line was U.S. Solicitor General Robert Bork who did fire Cox (and was later rewarded with a notorious Supreme Court nomination.)"

"So now here it comes around again. (See Daily Kos: GOP to investigate Fitzgerald). The Republican Senate is adding an intimidation investigation of the CIA Leak special prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald to hearings designed to blame the CIA for the Rove leak." (Seeing the Forest)
