More on White House Email Loss

Think Progress reports on Dana Perino's lies about White House email. On March 27th she said the email was archived, it turns out it wasn't. She also said only a "handful" of staffers used RNC accounts, it turns out it was 22 currently with about 50 doing so since 2001. Now I'm sure we'll get into an argument about how many are in a "handful".

Glenn Greenwald in The Bush administration's terrible luck with finding documents. He lists several passed occasions where they've had difficulty including: RNC emails, the gap in Purgegate emails, video of Padilla's interrogation, torture memos between the FBI and CIA, 2,000 pages of a classified report on Abu Ghraib, and Bush's Air National Guard records. "I suppose the defense for Bush followers who want to claim that all of this is completely innocent is 'extreme ineptitude.'"
