Clintons demand release of their papers to protect âlegacyâ
EFLThe row about the Clinton-era documents exposes the administration to the allegation that it trying to suppress information in fear that it will make the Bush White House appear tentative. Bruce Lindsey, a Clinton White House legal adviser who now works for his presidential foundation, said he had discovered in February that three quarters of the 11,000 pages passed to the National Archives in Washington had been held back from the commission by the White House. I wondered what happened to Lindsey. "I voiced a concern that the commission was making a judgment on an incomplete record," he told the New York Times. "I want to know why there is a 75% difference." Al Felzenberg, a spokesman for the commission, said: "We need to be satisfied that we have everything we have asked to see. We have voiced the concern to the White House that not all of the material the Clinton library has made available to us has made its way to the commission." What about the stuff that the Clinton Library has decided not to make available to the commission? Posted by: Super Hose 2004-04-03 |
