Amazing stuff from the court case on Ohio 2004* from the invaluable McClatchy, with a headline that I wish I'd written, and the names of many, many old friends:

From the invaluable ThinkProgress today, the latest "offer" from the RNC as to just how much Congressional oversight they will ever so graciously allow Rep. Waxman to perform:

In a new letter to the Republican National Committee, House Oversight and Government Reform Committee Chairman Henry Waxman writes that the RNC has provided only minimal information regarding White House officials’ use of RNC e-mail accounts. The purpose of Waxman’s inquiry was in part to determine the extent that White House staff used “non-governmental e-mail accounts to conduct official government business.”

In the new letter, Waxman reveals that the RNC’s response thus far has been to propose that any Congressional requests for emails be filtered through “eight search terms, such as ‘political briefing,’ ‘Hatch Act,’ and ‘2008.’”

Is this cute or what? You think the FBI would have caught Al Capone if they were only allowed to use evidence of him speaking or writing the words "bootlegging" and "criminal conspiracy" and "tax evasion"? Set phasers on "hit 'em with the chair," Henry.

And just to do our part I think we, all of us here--that means you too readers!-- should come up with our own list of "eight search terms" that would be most productive in this search.
