No one is above the law!

Better late then never I guess... Should bring the Bush administration to the Hague and bring charges against them for all the wrong they did. IF it had been anyone else, even a Democrate President that did same things, bet you $1 Million that the Repubs would be judge, and jury. And try him for war crimes...

If this president has nothing to hide, why is he being an obstructionist? I suspect there are criminal indications in the missing e-mails that will lead to indictments of Chaney, Rove, Bolton, Myers, Gonzalas and W himself. Let the law prevail! Unless we bring these people to justice, we will be fated to endure their crimes again.

No back up system for recording official messages? That wouldn't fly at my company. That is incompetence in government.

Sorry, even hard core Bush supporters have to admit this is a failure of competence in government.

Good for Judge kennedy. Lets hold them accountable just like the rest of us have to be held accountable when it comes to our own actions.

Get Cheney

get those crooks

It's about time someone cracked down on the Bush Administrations abuse of power. It's suprising that Bush, like Cheney, tried to somehow say that he was not part of the executive branch and not subject to oversight. Wouldn't be the first blunder along those lines. I look forward to an Obama administration of accountability and credibility

Let's see how far this goes.

Isn't this like Nixon missing 17 minutes on an audio tape.

Is this going to be called Bushgate or something to that effect.

The missing information could be of any substance but if the Federal Records Act requires that all messages be maintained, if not we then have a severe ethics viloation and possible criminal act.

It seems also that Sarah Palin has fallen into the ethics bucket as well.

It also seems that the word ethics is lacking in the political world and I believe that is the political systems downfall.

Since China has hacked the WH email system, why don't we see if they have them?

Ohhh man, how has our country come too far?? Even Saturday Night Live ran so well for crying out loud, LOL!!

Looks like ole G.W. Bush and his buddies wont be able to hide behind executive privilege or matters of national security anymore! I hope its just the tip of the iceberg! Can you say War Crimes!!!!!!!!

You guys havent heard? King W answers to no one!

Where is the accountability? This is democracy not dictatorship! Why not court doesn't have the right to challenge the White House?

Yes, score one for the people.

obama pleaded false "hope and change" for 2 yrs, and over 65 million braindead lemmings fell for it and voted for him. nobama cannot and will not bring 'change'. he suckered you all. he got everybody all riled up and now he's downplaying it to cover up the disappointment thats coming.

Send them all to GITMO!

Leave them there until we have laws and/or confirm them allowing us to execute former presidents for Treason.

"The White House maintains its compliance with the Federal Records Act is not subject to review by the courts." Of course not. There's no such thing as constitutionally mandated checks and balances, right?

I could only guess these email consists of questions for Bush about how he is running the country,so incourse they would be missing.Maybe if Bush read some of the emails maybe it could have helped him in his position as President.Oh well,January 20 can't come soon enough.

"The White House maintains its compliance with the Federal Records Act is not subject to review by the courts."

That, ladies and gentlemen, is what the current administration thinks of the US Constitution and law.

And THAT is what went wrong during the Bush administration. They beleive they are above the law.

They must not be allowed to get away with it.
