Must Be Tongue-In-Cheek

Froomkin asks a question in his column today:

New evidence unearthed by House Democrats establishes that White House political adviser Karl Rove and many of his colleagues used Republican National Committee e-mail accounts for official business -- even though White House policy is clear that doing so is a violation of the Presidential Records Act.

How did such casual lawbreaking come to be so widespread? And why was it tolerated?

As the title of this posts suggests, he must be tongue-in-cheek in asking this. If he is not, I'd gladly send him a complete copy of our blog archives going back several years.
