Hmm, Hmm, Remember this Story about Bush having his National Guard files Cleaned?

Kevin Drum, back when he had his own blog and posted cat pictures ad naseaum was all over the Bush National Guard story.

We now have news that the White House has been holding on to documents time and again after all the documents have been said to be released. What else have they got and what did they try to hold onto without it being seen. This leads me back to the story Drum had as stated below.

One of Kevin's biggest scoops was interview Bill Burkett.

An excerpt:

Two individuals walked in. I didn't know either one of them personally, but I do know that General James addressed one and said, General [John] Scribner, the folks from downtown are going to come out, Karen Hughes and [Dan] Bartlett are going to come out and they're, and I'm paraphrasing here, are going to come out and they're going to write a book about the governor for use in the reelection campaign or whatever else is going to follow on, and they need you to open access to your files and retained records. And there was a quick addition to that by General Marty, "and make sure there's nothing in there that'll embarrass the governor."

There is much more.

But there is now additional reason, given Bartlett's roll now, that makes you want to flesh out this story some more.

Thanks to reader Allie who found this separately from me, but obviously went out and did the work.
