Clinton Did NOT Do It Too
During yesterday’s press briefing, White House spokesman Tony Snow brushed aside this direct evidence of potential illegality. His response: Clinton did it too. “Those email accounts were set up on a model based on the prior administration, which had done it the same way, in order to try to avoid Hatch Act violations.”
http://thinkprogress.org/2007/06/19/snow-clinton-records/

Snow’s statement is false. In 1993, President Clinton’s then-Assistant to the President John Podesta issued a staff memo clearly stating that all administration e-mails dealing with official business had to be “incorporated into an official recordkeeping system,” stressing that no “e-mail document that is a Presidential record should be deleted.”



Bill Clinton Presidential Library Contains 39,999,998 e-mails ' Every single e-mail sent during his presidency, including the only two e-mails Bill Clinton ever sent.'

5. Where did you get that number? 39,999,996 Gore emails?
I read the CNN article and I didn't see Gore's name mentioned.

4. When you are guilty, you try to blame it on someone else
And so the Evil Clinton meme is used again.

6. It's either the Clenis or Sandy Berger
stuffing documents into his pants, like I need that mental image.... They would blame it on their own Mother if it suited their agenda....

17. They are way too predictable!
I was teasing the other day and predicted this would be their response. Little did I know that it really was.

They're going to have to come up with some new material hire some new writers, something. Even their Republican flock must be getting bored with the same old shtick over and over again. Did they learn nothing from the failed "The Jeff Foxworthy Show" and it's mistakes?
