This is Like Nixon’s Erased Tapes
Looks like the White House is now claiming that computer hard drives that may have contained the missing emails from 2003 to 2005 have been destroyed.

You Just can’t make this shit up…THE definition of Irony!
But as governor, Bush wasn’t excited about his carpet; he was excited about a painting: “A Charge to Keep.” In 1995 he issued a memo to his Texas staff, describing the painting, by W.H.D. Koerner in 1916, which he kept on his office wall. Bush told his aides: The reason I bring this up is […]
