Your observations are very astute.

I think in the Nixon White House, this was called a 'modified limited hang out.'

They released a bit of new info, even something that could be labeled 'bad,' but really isn't so much. Now, it's all old news.

I agree with your take that he signed the form to release the file to a known flunky, who would cull out anything damaging, rather than release the records to any who inquire. That's what Bush did.

I call, "Shenanigans!"

'modified limited hang out.'

Yes, now you quote that, I remember it very well. It became a buzz in the press, kind of like gore's "no controlling legal authority."
