Earlier this year, CREW broke the story that five million e-mails were missing from the White House system.  We issued a report, Without A Trace [0], detailing the legal issues behind the story of the White House e-mail scandal.   Even top Bush officials [0] could not deny our findings.  Rep. Henry Waxman (D-CA), Chair of the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, has been investigating the missing e-mails.  Yesterday, we learned that the White House conducted daily audits of its e-mail system.  As CREW's Anne Weismann told Bloomberg News [1], that certainly suggests the e-mails weren't lost in a technical glitch:

The revelation that there were daily audits suggests that e-mails were destroyed, said Anne Weismann, general counsel of the nonprofit watchdog group Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington, which sued the Bush administration in May over the missing e-mails.

"It's hard to imagine it could have been a technical problem," Weismann said in an interview. It is "incomprehensible that e-mail could go missing and it not be caught."

Incomprehensible indeed.  Congress needs to keep pursuing this issue.
