The House has just passed the Electronic Message Preservation Act, H.R. 5811. The bill modernizes the requirements of the Presidential Records Act and the Federal Records Act in order to ensure that the e-mail records of the White House and of federal agencies are properly preserved. Chairman Henry Waxman of the Oversight Committee speaks in favor of the bill and responds to Republicans who argued that debate should be focused on giving oil companies land to drill on instead.
This is the same audio problem that the House Judiciary is having. Shame. I've enjoyed keeping up with what is going on.

They cut him off 17 seconds early! I like the way this clip shows one of the most dogged and successful of freedom fighters in D.C. getting cut off early by his own party's leadership because he speaks truth to power. He won't quit. He is a hero for our nation's constitution. Only thing is, he needs to be heard. No administration can be allowed to get away with this bullshit "lost in the mail" defense.

@osiris33: You sure are right. I've followed this man for many years and the Republicans hate his guts. Nancy Pelosi is just as guilty as George Bush by not allowing the impeachment process to go forward. That woman does not deserve to be re-elected. Nancy Pelosi is a political coward.
