"He knows what his intentions were"

"He" being George W. Bush as we were informed by Tony Fratto, a White House spokesman, when responding to questions as to why the offices of the Vice President and President are exempt from the executive order requiring all parts of the executive branch to submit to the oversight of an independent office with regard to the handling of classified information. Most people would think that the offices of the Vice President and President are parts of the executive branch. Bush apparently intended that they would not be so considered.

The 'loss' of thousands of e-mails would make one question the adequacy of the White House's protection of classified material.

The Vice President filed the necessary reports in 2001 and 2002 and the stopped. Was that because the Iraq war began in 2003?
