Some HRC White House papers to go public
The Clinton library is readying a trove of detail about Hillary Rodham Clinton's eight years as first lady in
the White House for release in late January, government lawyers said in a court filing.

<snip>

Lawyers for the National Archives said they could not predict exactly when the documents would be made public
because both President Clinton and President Bush have the right to review them before they are released.

<snip>

Separately, Newsweek first reported that the former president has reserved the right to put certain categories of
documents off limits until 2012, a stance permitted him by an executive order by the current President Bush.

Those documents include "confidential communications regarding a sensitive policy, personal, or political matter"
and "communications directly between the president and the first lady."

But the schedules requested by Judicial Watch and others don't appear to fall into either of those categories, and
could be released much more rapidly than the average document.
