Clinton Library Won’t Release Kagan Files
Judicial Watch ^ | 05/21/2010

Posted on 05/23/2010 8:41:45 AM PDT by george76

Claiming that there are too many files to sort through, Clinton Library officials won’t provide the Senate Judiciary Committee with crucial information on Elena Kagan’s work in the administration in time for her confirmation hearings.

The committee, which considers judicial nominations, requested that the Supreme Court nominee’s records be furnished before the start of her June 28 confirmation hearings. The information is especially important because Kagan has no judicial experience and therefore no paper trail of legal opinions.

That essentially makes her Clinton Administration work her most important, and perhaps revealing, to date. Kagan was a top White House counsel under Bill Clinton who later got elevated to deputy assistant for domestic policy. Clinton also nominated her to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia but she never received a confirmation hearing from the Senate Judiciary Committee.

Now the committee wants documents related to Kagan’s time as a top presidential assistant, when she worked on policy matters dealing with firearms, tobacco and campaign finance. Senators have asked the Clinton Presidential Library for files, letters, memos and electronic mail to be considered before her hearings. The director of the William J. Clinton Presidential Library and Museum says it will be “very difficult” to meet the deadline...

Kagan, President Obama’s Solicitor General, is a liberal activist and political operative with financial ties to Goldman Sachs, the global investment firm embroiled in a major fraud scandal. As dean of Harvard Law School, she worked for the Wall Street titan that donates generously to Democrats.

There has to be at least one senator with guts enough to place a hold on her until the docs are released.

Amazing what you can get away with when the mainstream media is corrupt.

Every day seems like a cross between Night of the Living Dead and Invasion of the Body Snatchers. The stuff of which nightmares are made.

Then delay the confirmation until the Clinton library can see fit to produce the requested documents.

Now the question is will any of those pussies in Congress have the balls to filibuster?

Sort of a self-answering question, don't you think? :)

Nevertheless, there's always a hope -- this is a major diss of GOP senators and one can hope they'll rise to the occasion, by digging out, even as we type, the collected speeches of Gladstone, Cicero, and Demosthenes.

Nice presidential looking tie there.

As I looked at your pic of the two of them, this thought swam up from the back of my brain: "This isn't happening. These two ugly, fell, wicked people are NOT doing what they are doing, right out there in broad daylight, and inflicting all their Marxist, America-hating wickedness on our People and our country. They can't be."

It's just such an ugly thought.

Damn.

Sen. James Inhofe (OK) has already stated that he will!!!

What's your problem - besides hating all Republicans?

It’s called the “Zoe Life of God”.

Don’t believe me? .. try looking at some pictures of Republican women who are (mostly) Christian.

It’s facinating to me.

Too much to sort through?

Surely there would be sufficient qualified volunteers who could help them out? I'm certain the Clinton Library has gone to great lengths to procure assistance. /s

The taller one looks slightly more masculine I guess but which one likes women?

Guaranteed. Still, t'would make a dandy photo-op for FReepers to show up at the Clinton Library to assist them with recovering all those difficult-to-find ancient documents, you know, in the interest of, facilitating the Senate in performing due diligence. FReepers are really helpful! (I can only imagine the costumes)

Funny, I thought what librarians did was archive information such that it could be found easily. Silly me.

“Too many files to sort through.” I’ll have to remember that one.

It’s the night of the invasion of the living dead body snatchers.
