By issuing a subpoena for U.S. Attorney General Gonzales today, Senate Judiciary Chairman Patrick Leahy (Dem. - Vt.) made good on his promise last month to subpoena e-mails from White House Deputy Chief of Staff Karl Rove that the White House alleged had somehow gone missing.
In his speech on the Senate floor (inset, below) on April 12, 2006, Leahy held fast to his belief that e-mail simply can’t be permanently erased and hidden from electronic discovery or and computer forensic analysis.
“[The White House and RNC] say they’ve not been preserved I don’t believe that! I don’t believe that! You can’t erase e-mails, not today. They’ve gone through too many servers.”
Leahy might have an important summer job for a teen hacker from his Vermont district.
Remember how Leahy responded to a White House spokesperson’s claim that Rove’s e-mails are been lost? “I’ve got a teenage kid in my neighborhood that can go get ‘em for them,” Leahy scoffed.
