Oh good
The White House will vet "line by line" the report of the independent commission investigating the Sept. 11 attacks before it is publicly released, the commission chairman said on Sunday.

Chairman Thomas Kean said on NBC's Meet the Press that he was surprised to learn of the White House review, which he said was required under law to ensure any material that could compromise intelligence was not included.

The commission is expected to submit its report in July on intelligence failures before the 2001 attacks. Kean said he was confident the White House would finish its review so the report could be released well before the November presidential election.

- on edit: here's the link.
