I’m sure the Supremes will quickly overturn this 5 - 4 with Kennedy writing for the majority!
Now we won't be able to see future administration documents, both Dem and Repub.
So much for them being the servants, and not the masters.
Guess that never happened.
I wonder who nominated the Judge?
At first I shouted “yay” at this decision, but the more I think about it, the more I think it is wrong.
It may be administrative, but it still is a federal government office.
Also, while not all offices are subject to FOIA, it seems to me this one should be. If not, then the WH can just shove all their documents into their office to avoid being accountable.
It will just become a hiding place for documents, and I have a problem with that.
Has anyone demanded that all Congressional emails be made public? Heck, execute a warrant about a guy who has cash stuffed in his freezer and Congress-critters circle the wagons. Why is it these same people demand accountability from the Executive branch?

Keith Olbermann is going to be so p!ssed on tonight’s show about this. Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly will make his “Worst Person In the World” for sure.
One set of laws for the White House, one set for Congress, one set for the Senate, one set for SCOTUS, one set for local and state legislators, and the largest and most restrictive for us.
I’m curious to see how the liberal MSM spins this tonight.
Bad decision. People lose, future administrations gain a place to hide documents.
I am pretty sure that Melanie Sloan, the Exec Director of CREW was once an aide for Conyers. Overwhelming, they are in the business of exposing Republicans, not Dems.
We know how the media will spin THAT.
Seriously: Isn’t the Freedom of Information Act really just binding on the “little people”?
