White House Privately Furious? The White House is privately furious with Pentagon officials over how they've handled President Bush's National Guard records. As recently as February the president asked the Pentagon to release all of his service records, and records were produced.
But then a few months later, more records were produced, and the White House was assured that was all of them. Well, after a Freedom of Information Act (search) request from the AP, the Pentagon has now produced even more records.
And the White House, still unhappy with the last misstep, asked the Pentagon to release them to more than just the AP. But the Pentagon balked ... That is until a senior official forcefully reminded the Pentagon that it was the president who first requested the records' release.
Thanks.
But, again, those are the other records, not this TANG memos.
