The Dog ate my e-mail

Comrade, I mean Congressman Henry Waxman and the House Oversight Committee he chairs, is claiming hundreds of thousands of White House e-mails have been destroyed.

Well, perpetual party pooper Waxman is looking at the glass half empty, not half full. Instead of congratulating the White House for preserving the e-mails of 37 of the 88 White House officials, he is harping on the mere 51 officials' missing e-mails. Instead of applauding the White House for holding onto 130 of Karl Rove's e-mails, he is obsessing over the fact that the rest of his 140,000 e-mails, inluding all e-mails from the lead up to the Iraq War, are gone.

Waxman isn't the only paranoid conspiracy theorist democrat behind this e-mail witch hunt. You may remember Patrick Leahy saying that "You can't erase e-mails. They can't say that they're lost. That's like saying the dog ate my homework." Well, you can lose e-mails, and a dog can eat your homework. In fact, while "studying" at Yale, Bush told professors the dog ate his homework every single day.
