The SS is playing games with White House logs


Yep, and everyone knows it.

AMERICAblog: Because a great nation deserves the truth:

"UPDATE: I just heard from Paul at TPM Muckraker who explained the following: 'Conyers and Slaughter were able to get Guckert's visits because they sent a FOIA to the Executive Office of the President after they were told that the Secret Service didn't have the records.' Okay, that explains that, but it doesn't explain how the White House can justify turning over the Gannon records but not the Abramoff records - what's the difference? Why release one and not the other? Man-whores are okay but convicted criminals aren't?

How is it that the Secret Service now claims, per TPM Muckraker, to have no visitor logs prior to October 2004 - supposedly the Secret Service gave all the pre-10/04 logs to the White House which you can't really FOIA - when Congress was able to FOIA Secret Service logs about Jeff Gannon's visits going back to February of 2003?"
