Poll: Almost half in U.S. creationist
WASHINGTON, May 11 (UPI) -- Files on affirmative action written by U.S. Supreme Court Justice John Roberts when he was an adviser to President Ronald Reagan are still missing.
The file vanished in July when lawyers from the Bush administration were reviewing the materials at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library in Simi Valley, Calif., as part of a vetting process before Roberts' formal nomination to the Supreme Court, the Washington Post reported Thursday.
Allen Weinstein, the archivist of the United States, disclosed that the file was missing in August and requested the archive's Office of the Inspector General's review, which appeared this week on the Web site TheMemoryHole.com.
"This investigation is unresolved and the file is still missing," said the 64-page report. "The OIG was unable to determine whether the missing file was taken intentionally, unintentionally, or lost."
Investigators concluded archives staff did not follow agency policies and procedures in allowing two White House lawyers to review the documents in a private office for as long as 30 minutes while they participated in conference calls with the White House, the report said.
