Every day brings a fun new question to ask the Bush administration.

Today's question: Why did the White House block "thousands of pages of classified foreign policy and counterterrorism documents from former President Bill Clinton's White House files from being turned over to the [9/11] panel's investigators?"

Answer: withholding information is the default response in the Bush Administration.

The White House confirmed on Thursday that it had withheld a variety of classified documents from Mr. Clinton's files that had been gathered by the National Archives over the last two years in response to requests from the commission, which is investigating intelligence and law enforcement failures before the attacks.

Scott McClellan said that the administration withheld "sensitive" documents but gave the commission everything it needed to do its job. Everything it needed? Or everything the administration wanted it to have?
