Help me with weird logging problem

Hi,
I'm trying to add a couple log handlers to a program. The end goal is
to log things at INFO or above to console, and if a -v option is set
to ALSO log everything at DEBUG or above to a file. However, while I
DO get the log file created, and log messages are appearing there,
Debug messages are not...
Here's some sample code that is essentially the guts of the logging
setup right now, based on what I read in the docs:
#!/usr/bin/python
import logging
import sys
verbose = True
# Set up the logger
console_format = '%(levelname)-8s %(message)s'
console_handler = logging.StreamHandler()
console_handler.setFormatter(logging.Formatter(console_format))
console_handler.setLevel(logging.INFO)
logger = logging.getLogger()
logger.addHandler(console_handler)
if verbose:
verbose_format = '%(asctime)s %(levelname)-8s %(message)s'
verbose_handler = logging.FileHandler('testlog.log')
verbose_handler.setLevel(logging.DEBUG)
verbose_handler.setFormatter(logging.Formatter(verbose_format))
logger.addHandler(verbose_handler)
logging.debug("Setting log level to DEBUG for verbosity")
logging.info("INFO event logged")
logging.warning("WARNING event logged")
logging.error("ERROR event logged")
logging.critical("CRITICAL event logged")
logging.debug("DEBUG event logged")
When I run this I get the following console and log file output:
bladernr at klaatu:~/development/cert-submit-script-improvements/bin$ ./logtest.py
WARNING WARNING event logged
ERROR ERROR event logged
CRITICAL CRITICAL event logged
bladernr at klaatu:~/development/cert-submit-script-improvements/bin$ cat
testlog.log
2012-03-06 11:05:40,297 WARNING WARNING event logged
2012-03-06 11:05:40,297 ERROR ERROR event logged
2012-03-06 11:05:40,298 CRITICAL CRITICAL event logged
So I AM getting logging, but I am not getting the DEBUG level logs in
the log file, nor am I getting INFO level logs on console.
Any idea what I'm doing wrong?
