LITTLE ROCK -- Starting Friday, many of former President Bill Clinton's records become subject to the federal Freedom of Information Act, the law that allows citizens to see public records.

Officials at the Clinton Library expect many requests for access to some of the 80 million pages of presidential papers and 20 million e-mails stored at the library.

Just FYI, y'all, to get those FOIA requests in now!

[martin_fierro]

GETTING a FOIA request, and truthfully RESPONDING to it are two different things.

We should have a Freeper party at the Flying Saucer down the road and browse the docs over a few beers..

Just in time for the release of the Barrett report.

Clinton Library Expects Deluge Of Document Requests

..wonder if Sandy "the burglar" Berger will be in charge of handing out documents?

Must be a lot of dirty asses out there.

[Stark_GOP]

Get 'em now before Sandy Berger puts 'em in his socks.

[TChris]

Of course all the important documents are inexplicably missing. Senator Clinton "doesn't recall" where they went, nor having anything to do with them.

[Republicus2001]

Yeah before Sandy the Burglar takes them home...

I wonder if Sandy Burglar has a life-time pass

and 20 million e-mails stored at the library

If I remember correctly, at least that many didn't "make" the "move," am I right?

[toddlintown]

Think any of the pages will be stuck together?

[libs_kma]

If the records come from the klintoon presidential library and massage parlor I bet most of the pages are stuck together.

I'd like to see phone logs and other notes from Bernie Nussbaum's office that cover the days and weeks after Vince Foster's sudden,unexpected,untimely death.

Waste of time, those things have been cleaned better than a babies bottom. There is no way that the Legacy Maker would let anything stay in there that would hurt his chances to get back to the white house on his wife's coattails.

[Jack Black]

Why do we have to file FOIA requests. Just put it out on web servers and let google index it. Isn't Clinton committed to 21st century democracy?

[wouldntbprudent]

Just in time for the release of the Barrett report.

That's what I was thinking! The Barrett report should be a big help with issue spotting.

[wouldntbprudent]

Did they ever open that "rest of the story" place across the street that was talked about?
