• Debra J. Saunders: First the Public Service, Then Endless Litigation

Last month, the website Politico reported that the Department of Justice dropped its representation of former Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, his former deputy, Paul Wolfowitz, and other defendants in a lawsuit filed by convicted al-Qaida operative Jose Padilla and his mother. The Department of Justice continues to represent Defense Secretary Robert Gates, but no longer the Bushies. Padilla, you may recall, is an American citizen who was arrested at Chicago's O'Hare International Airport in 2002; authorities claimed that he was plotting to set off a radioactive "dirty bomb." After the Bush administration designated Padilla as an "enemy combatant," he was held in a South Carolina Navy brig for 44 months.

• Rumsfeld Denies He Let Bin Laden Escape

WASHINGTON -- Former Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld defended his controversial tenure under President George W. Bush, pushing back against criticism that he used too few troops to invade Iraq, and that he let Osama bin Laden escape into Pakistan. Rumsfeld, 78, said in an interview with the Tribune-Review that he never received a request to send troops to a mountain complex where bin Laden was believed to be hiding early in the war. A Senate report saying otherwise is "factually not correct," he said.
