The National Archives is withholding from the public about 2,600 pages of records at President Clinton's direction, despite a public assurance by one of his top aides last month that Mr. Clinton "has not blocked the release of a single document."
The 2,600 pages, stored at Mr. Clinton's library in Arkansas, were deemed to contain "confidential advice" and, therefore, "closed" under the Presidential Records Act, an Archives spokeswoman, Susan Cooper, told The New York Sun yesterday.
An official who oversees the presidential libraries operated by the federal government, Susan Fawcett, said in a recent interview that the records were withheld in accordance with a letter Mr. Clinton wrote in 1994 exercising his right to hold back certain types of files and another letter in 2002 about narrowing the scope of his earlier instructions. Asked by National Journal whether Mr. Clinton had "total control" over the closure of records under the confidential-advice provisions of the law, Ms. Fawcett said he did.
At a presidential debate in October, Mrs. Clinton was questioned about language in the 2002 letter that discussed the possibility of withholding some records about the former first lady. Mr. Clinton later called the questions "breathtakingly misleading" and complained bitterly that his wife had been sandbagged.
"Bill Clinton has not blocked the release of a single document," the former president's official representative on records issues, Bruce Lindsey, said in a written statement last month aimed at defusing criticism in the press and by one of Mrs. Clinton's rivals for the Democratic nomination, Senator Obama of Illinois. Spokesmen for Mrs. Clinton's campaign and Mr. Clinton's office did not respond to requests for comment.

Check Hillary’s socks. You might find them there.
ASfter she’s elected, they’ll show up on a coffee table in the WH living quarters.
Always true to their word. in the literal sense, of course. But, if 1 page was withheld, we could then hold them accountable.
The Clinton Administration is still in charge.
Someone pointed out that Bush never changed personnel in the government when he took office. That’s why his administration continues the American self-destruction Clinton started.

But when the defeatocrats want to go on a fishing expedition in the current administration...
That is correct. He has blocked the release of a multitude of documents.
Whew! At least you didn’t want me to check her underwear. (shudder)
Once again we learn to parse. Is the official vegetable of the Clinton campaign parsnips?

“Hillary, is that lump in your pantsuit White House documents or are you just happy to see us?”
Oooops! Sorry. Gusty reporter, oxymoron.
My bad.
Obviously she keep documents in her hip pockets.
After some work by Dan Rather's personal type-setter:
1. We have to get rid of Vince Foster's secretary. She's been late three times this month.
2. Jim McDougal's heart medication must be withheld in the highest esteem by cardiologists.
3. Monica Lewinsky blew Bill her chance for advancement after she opened her mouth to her superior once too often.
4. The new dyke tax hike looks promising.
5. I never told anyone to Fire everyone in the Travel Office and put our own people in there.
