I find it extremely peculiar that Lanny Breuer has been dealing with DOJ on this matter for nine months, and -- if you read the interview with him on CNN from two nights ago -- seemed to think he knew what the allegations against his client were, and yet it wasn't this "five drafts" stuff. If I were in Breuer's shoes, I would be pretty irritated to be finding out about these allegations from unnamed sources in the press.

Nor does it make any sense to me. The articles suggest he was dealing with copies, not originals.* It's not like he's going to remove all copies from the government archives.

But maybe the allegations are all correct. Who knows.

eata: Since you don't think this was a "mistake," what's the motive?
