As if this George Jr administration has not tried to obstruct the 911 Commission enoug. They still find more ways to keep facts from us. No wonder the Jersey Girls are so mad at this "we fear to be honest" administration - that even claims widespread looting did not happen in Iraq:

from NY Times of 2 April 2004 Bush Aides Block Clinton's Papers From 9/11 Panel
The commission investigating the Sept. 11 attacks said on Thursday that it was pressing the White House to explain why the Bush administration had blocked thousands of pages of classified foreign policy and counterterrorism documents from former President Bill Clinton's White House files from being turned over to the panel's investigators.
...
The commission and the White House were reacting to public complaints from former aides to Mr. Clinton, who said they had been surprised to learn in recent months that three-quarters of the nearly 11,000 pages of files the former president was ready to offer the commission had been withheld by the Bush administration. The former aides said the files contained highly classified documents about the Clinton administration's efforts against Al Qaeda.
...
Mr. Lindsey, who is Mr. Clinton's liaison to the National Archives, said ... he had read through many of the 10,800 pages that were collected and believed them to be valuable to the work of the panel.
"They involved all of the issues — Al Qaeda, Osama bin Laden, terrorism, all of the areas with the commission's jurisdiction," he said. He made his first public complaints about the handling of the documents in an interview with The Associated Press on Wednesday.
