Now that Obama has kicked the torture can back to Holder, Holder could do the country a favor by kicking it on to a special prosecutor. And who would be more fit for the role than Patrick Fitzgerald, who took down Scooter Libby. He already knows the territory and has proven his bona fides.
Sure, the right-wing would go bat shit crazy, but is that a bad thing? They are already unhinged, and there’s no point in trying to placate them. At this point, it’s probably better to get them into even more of a lather, since their fulminations don’t seem to be doing their cause much good.
