Farewell to Fredo—the View South of the Border
By Scott Horton Harper's
Today I came across an editorial in Mexico City’s La Jornada....The
piece’s title is “Gonzales and the end of justice in the U.S.” Here are
some clips:
The relief provoked by the news of Alberto Gonzales’
resignation from the U.S. Department of Justice is insufficient
to overcome the tremendous destruction wrought by that
public official on our neighbor to the north’s system of justice,
on individual liberties and guarantees, and on the cause
human rights. First, as legal counsel to George W. Bush and
later as Attorney General, Gonzales—the first U.S. citizen of
Mexican origin to hold that position—engineered the biggest
rollback of the institutional protections and democracy in that
country in decades, and it will take much time and legislative
work to repair the vast legal regression he has caused.
