Oh, Fitz Is "a 43 yr old BACHELOR, working 18 hours a day"
Tweety was running his pity party for Shrub, saying, "What can (Shrub) be thinking, sitting over there, and all these little things GOING WRONG. He knows a couple of these people, he doesn't know the guy at the Pentagon..."

So one of the panelists, I think, WARREN from a Chicago newspaper, pipes up, "They didn't know what they were up against with this investigation...a 42 43 year old BACHELOR working 18 hours a day..."

Ah. FITZGERALD is not MARRIED, does not have FAMILY VALUES. That's the ticket.

1. He must be a lesbian, then
Oh wait, wrong unmarried person.

I guess she doesn't have family values either then.

6. He's Irish
He's probably just still depressed over not entering the priesthood.

He went to a Jesuit high school. That's all I (a Jesuit-trained lawyer) need to know about what makes him go.

Here - http://tinyurl.com/cc72b

Read about his parents and how he grew up. Read about his Dad's job.

You'll get a very interesting perspective on what makes Fitz run.

He's as good as they come.

9. LOL "Irish...just depressed about not entering the priesthood"
Good article.

"After law school, he spent three years in private practice before fleeing to the prosecution side. In the New York days, his married friends chided him about his workaholic, overachieving, hopelessly bachelor life. One time, visiting the small Brooklyn studio where Fitzgerald lived, a lawman noticed papers piled on the gas stove. Don't worry about the fire hazard, Fitzgerald told him -- 'I've never turned it on.'

" 'The advantage he had over me,' Comey says, 'was he was much smarter and he had no life. He could sit there and never go home. Fitz would go in there and just sit and read through files. It would almost be as if he was photographing them.' "

12. I understand. I am married without children.
When I interviewed with Delta Airlines in 1978 they asked me, pointedly, why we had no kids. The insinuation was that I was gay. A good friend of mine borrowed pictures of his friend's kids for the Delta pilot interview. It was a good thing he was not hired, because he would have been summarily fired when no kids showed up on the medical insurance eligibility list (he is now a Boeing 757 captain at Northwest).

13. Is "bachelor" now code?
And I agree with what you said -- the way that whole line of questions was phrased from Matthews was "poor Bush! The guy does nothing wrong and all these people around him might make him look bad!"

Ugh.

without the coloring I'm giving it. You gotta understand, when Tweety is on, my paranoia automatically kicks in.
