What Is The White House Hiding?

ThinkProgress exposes the hypocrisy of the White House's stonewalling on Abramoff-
Today in the White House press briefing, Scott McClellan was asked again why the White House refuses to open up records of meetings that Abramoff had with Bush. Here’s what he said:

There’s a difference between responding to questions like that and engaging in a fishing expedition that has nothing to do with the investigation.

This most recent explanation shows the White House has completely spun itself into knots. Whereas the White House used to refrain from comment on matters related to the leak investigation because the questions WERE related to an ongoing investigation, the White House is now arguing it won’t comment because the questions are NOT related to an ongoing investigation.


And they also have news that the source of Time's Abramoff photo was... Abramoff himself. Huh.
