And Reps don't lie.....they just refuse to hand over documents. I don't know which document you're referring to; however, a refusal to hand over documents is, in no way, in the same ballpark as "lying". You didn't know that for weeks the GAO was asking for an tapes of Cheny's conversations with oil executives and documents related to those conversations and the WH was refusing to comply? They do get the news in Arkansas, don't they? There can be legitimate reasons for refusing to hand over documents. Under the Freedom of Information Act, there are few if any reasons. Just because your political opponents demand it, that doesn't make it appropriate to do it. It was the GAO asking for them, not the Dems. It was only when they threatened to go to court did the WH comply with their request. There are other instances (for example, the Hillary Billing Records incident) in which a court order requires the handing over of documents, when a failure to do so is criminal. We are talking about your holy grail Reps here, not the Clintons......stop smoke screening.
