Seat Of Power 
Having once born the assess of greatness, a wooden bench returns to it’s humble place of origin, the Milwaukee Journal.
John and Jackie Kennedy brought the Kennedy Magic to Milwaukee in the 1960 campaign, and a now storied piece of furniture had it’s brush with greatness. After a wandering career as retirement gift to a newspaper executive, the bench on which history’s fun couple sat is going back to the Journal courtesy of current owners The Nature Conservancy.
The furniture’s fate when the paper goes to that great recycling bin in the sky is unknown.
Just Because 
The already Clinton-crazed kids at Judicial Watch face further proof that the world is against them. Their endless litigation to force someone, anyone, to disclose, admit, or just fess up to Hillary Clinton’s dark deeds has stalled.
A major hangup is the vastness of their National Archives requests colliding with practical limits to how fast Archives can shuffle Clinton, or any, papers.
“At an estimated three million pages, the size and scope of Judicial Watch’s present FOIA request makes it the largest FOIA request that the Clinton presidential library has received to date…Further, the request is greater than any FOIA request ever received to date at any of the presidential record act libraries.“
Archives handles requests first come, first serve, and in line ahead of The Watchers are a different species of crank. Grant Cameron trolls the Clinton and other Presidential Library files for proof of UFOs. 
And “The Mainstream Media’s Lonely UFU Blog” reports Cameron is poised to further annoy The Watchers. He’s endorsing Hillary Clinton as best on the little green men question.
“She … would be the most fearless individual to find and take on the secret UFO cabalâ€
Gritty, Urban 
Laura Bush has unveiled an exciting new talking point for the Bush Library to come in Dallas:
“This will be the first truly urban location for a presidential library “
Meaning what exactly? George will be taking public transportation to work on his memoirs at the Library? And she is casually dissing the two existing Texas Presidential Libraries at Austin and College Station, one of which is her father-in-law’s.
Would A Cow Town Shine So Brightly? 
Hillary Walks! 
The Associated Press says Hillary Clinton has narrowly escaped testifying about hundreds of FBI files the White House amassed during her husband’s administration.
“Had Clinton been forced to testify, it would have rekindled a controversy in the midst of her campaign for the Democratic presidential nomination.”
“Controversy” implies items in dispute, and the AP let the clowns suing Clinton refer to her as “the defendant.” But according to the Associated Press:
“An Independent Counsel report in 2000 found no evidence of wrongdoing by White House aides or Clinton.”
Whatever might have happened?
Clinton patsy Ken Starr deposed Hillary Clinton on this in 1998. And in the end, the Independent Counsel Final Report In Re: Anthony Marceca said Hillary didn’t do it, and it didn’t exist.
“…there was no substantial and credible evidence that any senior White House official, or First Lady Hillary Rodham Clinton, was involved in seeking confidential Federal Bureau of Investigation background reports of former White House staff from the administrations of President Bush and President Reagan.”
“The Independent Counsel has, however, concluded that the allegations giving rise to this Office’s investigation of the matter were not substantiated by the evidence.”
The Missing Millions 
The Bush White House’s signature style has been to dodge responsibility for it’s actions and havoc wrought by claiming to be “looking ahead” while not engaging in a “blame game.” Another trick is to package the unpalatable and unexplained as being part of a “program,” torture euphemism being the most prominent example.
Their latest exercise is less ghastly, but still one of the greats.
In a Good Friday court filing, the Bush Administration says many of it’s missing millions of emails are dead, and there will be no resurrection. The White House is placing it’s faith in the howling news chasm of the holiday weekend to disappear the story, and it appears it’s faith will be rewarded.
The White House filing says that, besides disabling an existing system to archive email, they now admit they destroyed computer hard drives without saving all the emails on them. They told the court that recovering emails from where the Bush Administration’s inattention or deceit put them would be hard or impossible because of this “refresh program,” so the judge should give them a pass.
The Associated Press is reporting the story off the White House filing, apparently alone in all the world. It’s story is worth reading in full, if only to appreciate the baldness of the Administration’s contempt, actual if not legal. Over and above the details of this case, every Administration is obligated to preserve all it’s records. The endless quibbling over access come later.
The National Security Archive and the Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington have been fighting the White House on this, and their web sites have nothing on the latest White House whimsy. 
Media worthies who soiled themselves this week crosschecking the Hillary Clinton schedules with Presidential blow-jobs have been silent so far.
But nothing slows down White House preparation for Monday’s Easter Egg Roll.
Hope you had a great Sunshine Week!
