Who is the target?

Cannonfire says: I hold with those who think that the real target in all of this may be Obama.

I can't say as I agree so far but Cannonfire makes a good case. Though, by lying or bumbling the immediate response (as Obama often does) he has made matters worse. Obama stated yesterday he has not spoken to Blag (sorry got to shorten his name - my typing is horrific as it is). Axlerod had stated the opposite. Yet, Blag somehow knew that Obama was not willing to "pay" anything for an appointment. So something that should make Obama look like an upright guy - leads, instead, to a reasonable person questioning his veracity.

My only reason for not buying that Fitz. is after Obama in not based in facts on the ground. Fitz. always nets many big fish - but rarely the biggest fish.

Presidents often fire all U.S. attorneys upon taking office (Clinton did). Will Obama fire Fitzgerald on 1/20?
Hmmm.

On a positive note: I like BHO's appointment of this man.
