To the Editor:
    In the last twenty months, president Obama (formerly of the U.S. Senate) and Rahm Emanuel (formerly of the U.S. House of Representatives) can point to some signal legislative achievements.  In that same time however the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of the U.S. has failed to end discrimination in those Armed Forces, and our Chief Executive has failed to enforce our treaty obligations with respect to torturers. If professor Obama can't remind president Obama how the Separation of Powers works, perhaps a new Chief-of-Staff can.
