Comment Of Sen. Patrick Leahy,
On The Indictments Announced Friday,
By Special Prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald,
Of The Vice President's Chief Of Staff
October 28, 2005
 

"This investigation has been handled by a prosecutor who has done a thorough and professional job, without a hint of partisanship, which is exactly how our legal system is supposed to work. At a time when many are pushing to inject more ideologues into our independent judicial system, it has been reassuring for the country to see an objective judicial process take its proper course."
