1.Rahm Emanuel: We're Not Re-Litigating the
Past
by Roger Shuler of Legal Schnauzer

New Yorker contains a quote from Obama Chief of Staff Rahm
Emanuel that should be troubling to all citizens who care about justice
issues. It should be particularly troubling for those who have followed
political prosecutions, such as those involving Don Siegelman in
Alabama and Paul Minor in Mississippi.

The article, by Jane Mayer, focuses largely on Holder's policies
regarding terrorism, especially his plan to try terror suspects in
criminal courts rather than in military tribunals.

Mayer portrays Emanuel as a purely political animal who cares little
about fundamental issues of right and wrong. And her article lends
support to a long-time Obama mentor who recently complained that
Emanuel is poorly serving the president and should exit the
administration as soon as possible.
