Good morning!
Many thanks for being willing to sideline CIPA and Libby for this sidelight/insight on Mercer. A couple of questions that are not OT, I think:

1. is it true that the Senate committee on Indian affairs holds hundreds of thousands of documents collected for their Abramoff investigation that were not exploited at the time.
2. If true, are they potentially useful for e-mail use by WH via the RCN and maybe DOJ, think Mercer?
3. If true then why the hell have we not heard anything from that committee and is there anything we can do about it?

1. Is it true that the Senate committee on Indian affairs holds hundreds of thousands of documents collected for their Abramoff investigation that were not exploited at the time.

If you read dengre @ dailykos, you will find out that he believes that McCain (as former committee chair) stonewalled the investigation. He says that 750,000 e-mails were subpoened. I wrote to the current chairman (Dorogan) and absolutely no response.

Wanna' do something about this? Write to Waxman, Conyers and Lehey and see which one will check it out first. I've written to all of them and NOTHING!

2. If true, are they potentially useful for e-mail use by WH via the RCN and maybe DOJ, think Mercer?

I think they must be useful... but I don't know if it has anything to do with Mercer. McCain knows but he is about on his way out of the Senate and out to some old people's home in AZ. People who say he has integrity are certainly wrong!

3. If true then why the hell have we not heard anything from that committee and is there anything we can do about it?

Who knows why. We can only speculate. However, the question in my mind is if the committee is holding them or if they've been sent to DOJ for safekeeping

As I said, we should call and write to all of them demanding ACTION! They may not need to take them to court to find missing e-mails. They may be sitting on them and they may be too stupid to know it.

I don't have the dengre diary URLS, but they are there. He has written many, many times on this subject and knows what he is talking about!
