18 1/2 Minute Gaps are for Wimps

When Condoleeza Rice used the phrase "we can't wait for the smoking gun", she may have had the Nixonian meaning of the phrase in mind.

The Bush administration did not archive White House emails between March 1 and May 22, 2003. That's an 83 day gap, blowing away Nixon's nano-sized 18 1/2 minute gap. Just for good measure, the Bushes also neglected to archive emails from September 30 to October 6, 2003, while they were arranging the Plame coverup.

The Bushes dismantled the Clinton-era ARMS system for automatic archiving in September 2002, just as the Iraq War Traitors were launching their misbegotten 'new product'.
