WTF Is It Now?!?

Ethics group sues misadministration over Abramoff access docs
If they have nothing to hide, why did they hide it?

The extremely overworked Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington sued Homeland Security Tuesday for its failure to release documents detailing indicted criminal Jack Abramoff's visits to the White House, the executive office buildings and the Vice President’s bunker.

“We are trying to discover the extent of the ties between Abramoff and his colleagues and the Bush administration. Unfortunately -- as has become commonplace -- the administration is stonewalling,” said Melanie Sloan, executive director of CREW. “The American people deserve to know the truth about Abramoff’s influence with the Bush administration, something the administration is clearly trying to hide.”

And, in an update...

Sometime Wednesday, the Bush administration is scheduled to release Secret Service records detailing the number of times disgraced lobbyist Jack Abramoff visited the White House. The administration is not doing this voluntarily. It is under an order from a federal judge acting on a watchdog group's lawsuit.

Honor and integrity.
