"What is at stake is how to answer the potential threat Iraq represents with the risk of proliferation of WMD. Baghdad's regime did use such weapons in the past. Today, a number of evidences may lead to think that, over the past four years, in the absence of international inspectors, this country has continued armament programs." -- Jacques Chirac, October 16, 2002

 No New Light on Clinton Papers
The Clinton presidential library here is designed to evoke openness: towering glass windows, high ceilings and sleek exhibit designs. But donations to the Clinton library are not transparent, and neither are many of the contents of the presidential collection, which is facing -- but has not yet acted on -- 287 open requests under the Freedom of Information Act. Many papers related to Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton's time as First Lady -- which she cites constantly on the campaign trail as part of the experience that qualifies her to be president -- are believed to be under lock and key.

The Clinton presidential library here is designed to evoke openness: towering glass windows, high ceilings and sleek exhibit designs. But donations to the Clinton library are not transparent, and neither are many of the contents of the presidential collection, which is facing -- but has not yet acted on -- 287 open requests under the Freedom of Information Act. Many papers related to Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton's time as First Lady -- which she cites constantly on the campaign trail as part of the experience that qualifies her to be president -- are believed to be under lock and key.As reported by Newsweek, the former president had claimed that such requests were moving slowly because of an order signed by President Bush making it more difficult to release presidential papers. Describing himself as "pro-disclosure," Clinton said: "I want to open my presidential records more rapidly than the law requires and the current administration has slowed down the opening of my own records." But according to White House spokesman Scott Stanzel, there are no release requests pending from Clinton -- even though outside researchers have asked the former president to release about 10 million pages from his two terms as president."When we do receive documents for review, we work to review those as expeditiously as possibly," Stanzel said. "And I would add that there have been no records that the Clinton administration has cleared for release that we have decided to invoke privelege on."
