Bush's E-mail Gate

There is a good article today by Dan Froomkin of the Washington Post on the criminal activity of the Bush Administration in regard to the improper deletion of e-mails both sent to, and sent from, the White House. There is strong evidence to support the idea that the e-mails were deleted to cover illegal activities by members of the executive branch and/or to save embarrassment to these same individuals. (I would stress the "and" there, btw.) Even if there was nothing to cover up, the deletion of these e-mails would still violate federal law in and of itself. It is yet another example of the Bush Administration's contempt for the law, for the nation, and for Americans themselves.
