Through all these years of war and deceit by the Bush administration, one thing has kept me sane.
In the back of my head I’ve always know the truth would eventually reveal itself. The truth will reveal itself in recorded phone conversations, documents, emails, and any other form of communication that the White House has documented.
As the end of the Bush Administration is looming, they’re gearing up for an archival of documents just as every other administration has done in the past.
Dick Cheney, on the other hand, wants to argue otherwise. He claims that the Vice President’s office is independent from the executive branch and exempt from preserving documents. A federal judge has ruled otherwise:
A federal judge on Saturday ordered Dick Cheney to preserve a wide range of the records from his time as vice president.
The decision by U.S. District Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly is a setback for the Bush administration in its effort to promote a narrow definition of materials that must be safeguarded under by the Presidential Records Act.
The Bush administration’s legal position “heightens the court’s concern” that some records may not be preserved, said the judge.
A private group, Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington, is suing Cheney and the Executive Office of the President in an effort to ensure that no presidential records are destroyed or handled in a way that makes them unavailable to the public.
The truth will find you eventually, Mr. Cheney.
