David Iglesias filed the complaint that resulted in Rove investigation

Nice work, Mr. Iglesias. Rove really picked a fight with the wrong U.S. Attorney/Navy Reserve Captain. From Think Progress:

Tonight on MSNBC, fired U.S. Attorney David Iglesias revealed key new details about the Office of Special Counsel’s (OSC) probe into Karl Rove and other White House officials reported today by the Los Angeles Times.

Iglesias said that on April 3, he filed a Hatch Act complaint with the OSC, charging that Karl Rove and others may have violated the law by firing him over his failure to initiate partisan-motivated prosecutions. Iglesias said he subsequently spoke with OSC chief Scott Bloch, who made clear that he was planning to launch an investigation. Despite suggestions that the White House may have initiated the OSC investigation to obstruct parallel congressional probes, Iglesias expressed confidence in Bloch.
For some people -- although not many in the Bush administration, the rule of law actually matters.
