Senate to White House: Really? Tell Us More
By Paul Kiel - April 12, 2007, 6:05 PM

With regard to those lost emails by White House officials using RNC-issued email accounts, there are a lot of unanswered questions.

And so Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Patrick Leahy (D-VT) along with the panel’s Ranking Member, Sen. Arlen Specter (R-PA), wrote to White House counsel Fred Fiedling today to try and get some answers.

Some of those questions that need answering:

...we would like to know what was done in the past and whether any private e-mail retention policies were in place. We would also like to know how and when the White House first learned of the problem with private e-mail account usage and when it first came to light that e-mails may have been lost.

1. gee, Arlen, why not look at your own RNC issued blackberry?

I mean, I would find it hard to believe that a senior rethug senator would be left out of the loop.
