What’s in Howard Dean’s secret files?
Fizzle THAT shizzle: Remember the Bushies sealing the records of presidents beginning with Poppy Bush/Saint Ronnie of Reagan ("an act never before done in US presidential history")?

And what bizarre timing. In the midst of a war and an economic disaster -- they find the time and "the desire" to seal the records of the Reagan/Bush admin, just as info is surfacing about Bush/Bin Laden connections from years back. (Details in Scripps-Howard News Service, appearing in Chico, CA paper on 11/5/2001)
"It is not a stretch to wonder if this White House is up to something that it doesn't want known 12 years from now or anytime thereafter. [A direct quote from the piece carried by Scripps Howard News Service, Re: Bush's sealing of presidential records for the first time in U.S. history.]

John Dean, former Counsel to Richard Nixon, another secretive White House incumbent, wrote in FindLaw.com, “[W]e have a President who likes secrecy. He has hired only tested leak-proof and loyal staffers, effectively sealing the Bush White House. He has had his records as the Governor of Texas hidden, shipping them off to his father's Presidential library, where they are inaccessible. He has stiffed the Congressional requests for information about how he developed his energy policy— refusing to respond.”

So bite me.
