Executive Order 13292

The Bush administration is still stonewalling on information concerning John Bolton. Democrat Sen. have been asking for records pertaining his actions/service in the State Department. These requests have been issued months ago when the nomination process first started and are the main reason why Democrats and a fair number of Republican Senators are blocking the confirmation vote.

I’d like to remind President Bush of his Executive Order 13292:

In no case shall information be classified in order to: (1) conceal violations of law, inefficiency, or administrative error; (2) prevent embarrassment to a person, organization, or agency.

So what’s the holdup?
