Blocked: Emails Solicitor General Elena Kagan sent from her DOJ email account to people in the White House

By any reasonable standard of judgement, Supreme Court Justice Elena Kagan should recuse herself from any Obamacare cases. Of course, she is unlikely to do this because it would doom President Obama's hopes of a favorable SCOTUS decision. Plan "B" is to hide her involvement in defending Obamacare as solicitor general and hope it flies under the radar.

(CNSNews.com) - U.S. District Judge Ellen Segal Huvelle, a Clinton appointee, has ruled that the Justice Department does not need to release emails Solicitor General Elena Kagan sent from her DOJ email account to people in the White House—in which she discussed her recusal decisions as solicitor general—because the emails were “used for a purely personal objective.”

CNSNews.com and Judicial Watch were seeking public release of the emails through lawsuits filed under the Freedom of Information Act.

The “purely personal objective” cited by the judge was Kagan’s goal of being confirmed to the United States Supreme Court.

At issue is whether Kagan must recuse herself as a Supreme Court Justice when the cases challenging the constitutionality of Obamacare reach the court.
