Another friend makes a comment about Obama's Chief of Staff choice

Yeah, his Wall Street connections are troubling. But he’s not steering the ship. Obama is...

Dear friends,

In my drive not to be "fair and balanced" like Fox News, below, I am presenting the response that I received from a very good friend of mine, "Corky" Siemaszko, who also happens to be a staff writer for the New York Daily News, regarding Rahm Emanuel - President-elect Obama's choice to be his Chief of Staff.

Djata,

Actually, it might be good for Obama to have a tough guy like Rahm Emanuel who will kick some a-- as chief of staff. And, as an exiled Chicagoan whose late mother was represented by Emanuel, I give the guy props for reaching out to the constituencies that did not vote for him. My old neighborhood voted en masse for the Polish candidate, Nancy Kaszak, not for Emanuel. He didn’t hold it against Polish Village.

Yeah, his Wall Street connections are troubling. But he’s not steering the ship. Obama is.
