Fitzmas

Fitzmas is the name given by some liberal bloggers to the atmosphere of excitement and anticipation preceding the conclusion of Patrick Fitzgerald's grand jury investigation into the Plame affair. The word is a hybrid of Fitzgerald's name and "Christmas." See examples at the Democratic Underground and Daily Kos.

Said excitement and anticipation has caused many parodies of traditional Christmas songs to be written and posted around the liberal blogosphere. There are also several versions of "'Twas the Night Before Fitzmas".
