You really want one who is willing to steal from any part of government(you)?

btw most of the state if Texas doesn't think GWB is as dull as you suspect. Which is more likely they are all wrong(many of them Democrats btw) or you who have never worked with or even met the man?

I think a lot of you Bush bashers are nothing but anti-Southern bigots. We really must get beyond this.

Have an open mind and be tolerant, please.

Hill investigators cross up
White House Project X story

WASHINGTON -- Congressional investigators have obtained billing records showing a high-powered lawyer hired by a White House computer contractor spoke with White House lawyers soon after contractors said they were threatened to keep quiet about gaps in e-mails under subpoena during the Lewinsky investigation, WorldNetDaily has learned.

White House lawyers, including former White House Counsel Charles Ruff, have testified that they didn't hear about the accusations of threats, allegedly made against Northrop Grumman technicians in June 1998, until earlier this year.

The House Government Reform Committee has been investigating the allegations to see if the White House tried to hide the e-mail problem from Congress. It didn't find out until this February that a trove of e-mail wasn't searched to comply with various subpoenas.

A criminal grand jury impaneled by Independent Counsel Robert Ray also is hearing evidence to see if the White House obstructed justice in the so-called "Project X" e-mail scandal.

Ray, who recently received a batch of more than 1,000 pages of unarchived e-mail from Monica Lewinsky, just impaneled another grand jury to see if there's enough evidence to charge Bill Clinton with perjury and obstruction of justice in the Jones-Lewinsky case.

In September 1998, Northrop Grumman retained Earl Silbert, a hotshot Washington lawyer specializing in white-collar crime. He was involved in the Watergate investigation, and is currently a partner at Piper Marbury Rudnick & Wolfe.

Silbert, who knows Ruff personally, teleconferenced with "White House counsel" on Sept. 28, 1998, according to billing records obtained by lawyers for the House panel.

He had another conference call with "White House counsel" on Dec. 30, 1998.

Ruff claims he can't recall talking to Silbert about the Northrop Grumman matter. Also in his May 4 House testimony, Ruff denied knowing about any e-mail threats or even the "scope of the problem."

He never notified former Independent Counsel Kenneth Starr or Hill investigators about the gaps, even though a Northrop Grumman worker in June 1998 assessed that more than 246,000 White House e-mails never were searched.

House Government Reform Committee Chairman Dan Burton plans to call Silbert, as well as Northrop Grumman Chairman, President and CEO Kent Kresa, to testify on Tuesday about the calls to the White House counsel.
