"Our hope is to get it done by the end of the year," the acting director of the Clinton Presidential Library, Emily Robison, told The New York Sun. She stressed that she was only referring to the review and redaction of the records by archivists. Under the Presidential Records Act and an executive order issued by Mr. Bush, Mr. Clinton's representatives then have 90 days to review the records for materials that could be covered by executive privilege. After that review is complete, Mr. Bush has an unlimited amount of time to make his own privilege assertions.
It is unclear whether the disclosure of redacted versions of Mrs. Clinton's schedules will ultimately have significance for her bid for the Democratic presidential nomination. However, it seems likely that Mr. Clinton's former aides will have control over the timing of the process just as the nominating contest reaches its peak early next year. The political atmosphere is sure to increase pressure on the former president not to be responsible for any delay.
Ms. Robison said Mrs. Clinton's schedules were given priority in processing because they have been the subject of several Freedom of Information Act requests. A conservative watchdog group, Judicial Watch, has filed suit against the National Archives to demand release of the White House schedules and phone records pertaining to Mrs. Clinton. A judge denied the group's request for an immediate injunction but ordered the archives to propose by October 1 a schedule for release of the records.
