19. Fitz reports to NO ONE. That's the beauty of his job.
Be sure to read the whole article, it explains it better than I could. Basically, his job as US Attorney for the northern district of Illinois expires in October. His job as Special Counsel investigating Plamegate does not. As for who he reports to, read this snip:

As you will soon see, Fitzgerald's appointment as Special Counsel, the first of its kind in the history of the United States, was meticulously crafted to withstand the coming onslaught.

Speculation is running rampant as to whether Patrick Fitzgerald and his grand jury investigation will be shut down by Bush administration operatives. You may believe that Bush cannot risk the political fallout associated with removing Fitzgerald, but his team of fascist criminals will shoot first and ask questions...never.

These are the same people who carefully calculated they could openly commit Treason by outing Valerie Plame and her CIA network. They weren't worried about the fall out then, and they won't be worried about it now.

It's not political fall out that will prevent the Bush death squad from removing Fitzgerald; their obstacle is the law. It doesn't matter whether they put all of Skull and Bones in the Justice Department and relocate the DOJ to a tomb in New Haven, the law protects Patrick Fitzgerald's mandate from all intervention. Neither Bush nor his Justice Department cronies have the legal authority to remove Fitzgerald as Special Counsel or to prematurely end his grand jury. You can thank James Comey for this.


This is GREAT news!
