ah. so this is a straight political question for you--as i suppose it is for me.
but i see politics as entirely intertwined with history and how it is done, and i think that it is politically important (and not just for reasons of debunking, but for a host of reasons that i alluded to earlier) that these documents be available
---while it seems that for you this is not really about history or historians or the historical record or any of that--it's about supporting the bush administration.
which is fine, i suppose: but there's no real discussion in it.
i mean, it's obvious that neither of us is going to budge.
