Congress investigates Bush's illegal private e-mail system

RNC automatically purges some e-mails after 30 days.

It will be interesting to see how this plays out.

It always cracks me up when people who hated Clinton, people who thought he represented everything that was wrong with America, use the "Well, Clinton did it too" defense to justify things.

I thought this was especially interesting...

Does that mean the RNC had access to all the emails unsed on the system whether they were the okay kind or the proported not okay kind? If so, what does that mean? (I'm kind of a dolt about the RNC and the DNC and what they actually do.)

If everything that goes throught the regular email system is public record I don't suppose it matters if the RNC people saw them or not.

What matters is that someone might have sent correspondence that they were trying to hide from public record and the RNC deleted them as a matter of course.

I like a good conspiracy as much as the next guy but this sounds like it would be impossible to prove intent.

Read the small print. More witch hunts.
