"Merry Fitzmas
"Back in 2005, there was a holiday called Fitzmas. It came in November of that year, and revelers hoped it would return again and again," Byron York writes in the Hill newspaper.
"But they were destined to be disappointed. Months passed, a year passed, and there was no sign of Fitzmas's return.
"Until now.
"In case you haven't heard, Fitzmas is the name for the giddy excitement that arises among fans of CIA-leak prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald — left-wing bloggers, mostly — when they anticipate that it will finally be proven that the Bush administration conspired to leak the identity of former CIA employee Valerie Plame Wilson in order to smear her husband, the former ambassador Joseph Wilson, because he dared to criticize the grounds for the Iraq war.
"Fitzmas first came for the Fitzgerald groupies — also referred to as Plameologists — with the indictment of Lewis Libby, Vice President Dick Cheney's former chief of staff, on charges of perjury and obstruction of justice.
"Now Libby's trial is beginning, and Fitzmas is back," Mr. York said. "The trial, Plameologists hope, will finally — finally — reveal the ugly truths at the center of the Bush White House.
"They've been hoping that for a long time."
