WASHINGTON (AP) — Computer technicians have found 22 million missing White House e-mails from the administration of President George W. Bush and the Obama administration is searching for dozens more days’ worth of potentially lost e-mail from the Bush years, according to two groups that filed suit over the failure by the Bush White House to install an electronic record keeping system.

Records released as a result of the lawsuits reveal that the Bush White House was aware during the president's first term in office that the e-mail system had serious archiving problems, which didn't become publicly known until 2006, when federal prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald disclosed them during his criminal investigation of the outing of CIA operative Valerie Plame.

A Microsoft Corp. document on the Bush White House's e-mail problems
states that Microsoft was called in to help find electronic messages in October 2003, more than two years before the problem surfaced publicly. October 2003 was the month that the Justice Department began gearing up its criminal investigation into who in the Bush administration leaked the identity of Plame, the wife of Bush administration war critic Joseph Wilson.

Oh yeah. Let's call in those guys that created Windows Vista. They'll know how to fix the problem. Team Patches has a lot of computer problem fixing experience.

The trouble there was they were putting it on machines too underpowered to run it.

The National Security Archive has a good chronology of the email fiasco:

I wonder what the e-mail was about. I'll bet it was mostly hunting administration enemies and arranging lunch dates with corporate lobbyists.

Geez, if you want to see that just look at the emails since January 20th 2009. I am sure there are plenty to see and amuse you.

22 million emails?

Now we know why Obama wants to loosen up the TARP funds...he wants to hire more cronies from Chicago to try to find something embarrassing on Bush to cover up his own failures as our empty-suit-in-chief.
