re: I agree that a Special Prosecutor SHOULD be appointed..TODAY.

They are. But you miss the point. This is a political move made necessary by the brazenness of the leakers and the conspirators.

You want to stop the leaks and derail the campaign to bring down the government? Sic Gowdy or Cruz on them with the power to shine a light on their activities. This could and likely would lead to some big names in the GOPe and former Obama people, probably Obama himself.

Yeah its purely political but if you don't go after them, they will get you sooner or later. The investigations ongoing now are also purely political in nature. Fight fire with nukes I say.
