U.S. to appeal ruling making White House visitor logs public
http://wkbt.com/Global/story.asp?S=7527506

The Bush administration is asking a federal judge to hold off forcing the White House to release its visitor logs.

A liberal watchdog group is requesting to see records related to visits by nine conservative religious commentators, including James Dobson, Gary Bauer and Jerry Falwell.

(snip)

The judge has ruled against the Bush administration argument, finding that the logs are still Secret Service documents.

The Bush administration is now asking the judge to keep the records secret, until they can appeal the ruling.

(end snip)

What appeal could they possibly have? Who tucks the idiot in at night is a state secret?

7. Apparently not
otherwise there would be no need for an appeal.

Dick and Bush are probably cursing the efficiency of the DC fire department.

8. Remember the male prostetute Jeff Gannon/Guckert? They do not want the record of his sleepovers
Made public. The GAWD fearing Christian taliBORNagain would not like proof of his nocturnal sexcapades to be on the record.
