Goose meet Gander posted by Clyde 5:26 AM U.S. Special Counsel Says He Won't Provide Files Official Calls Personal Records Not Relevant to OPM Probe A U.S. official overseeing a probe of potential White House misconduct declared through a spokesman yesterday that he will not give federal investigators copies of personal files that he deleted from his office computer. The decision by Special Counsel Scott J. Bloch escalates the confrontation between the Bush appointee and the White House, each of which is investigating the other. Bloch's office is tasked with upholding laws against whistle-blower retaliation and partisan politicking in federal agencies. Earlier this year, Bloch directed lawyers in his office to look into charges that former Bush adviser Karl Rove inappropriately deployed government employees in Republican political campaigns. Bloch had previously been targeted by the White House, which in 2005 asked the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) to investigate allegations that Bloch had retaliated against whistle-blowers among his own staff members and improperly dismissed whistle-blower cases brought to the agency by others.

	This is ridiculous!! This article makes it appear as though Bloch and Bush are political enemies when just the opposite is true. Read yeaterdays post just two columns down,entitled: THIS IS WHY YOU DON'T LET CRIMINALS POLICE THEMSELVES. Bush appointed Bloch,"a loyal member of the Bush administration,serving in the Justice Departments office of faith based programs,when the preident named him to to head the office of Special Counsel in 2003." Bloch had his hard drives cleaned so he could delete the evidence against Rove and friends,just like Bush told him to do. Bloch won't provide the files because he knows it would implicate his mentor,BUSH. Clyde, in the future please read what Wally posts just the day before. This article makes it sound as if Bloch is on our side. Bullshit, he's on the side of the enemies of free speech:Bush et al. We need a real unbiased investigator in this high position, not just another Bush henchman. Don't try to make this slime sound honorable, he is not. Nor is Bush! posted by Anonymous at 8:10 AM
