For the number of papers that they "couldn't find" to satisfy FOIA requests !!!
"I coulda sworn I left that page right there".....hahaha
The WH of course knew nothing about this.
The least transparent administration in history folks.
US gov't sets record for failures to find files when asked
The Obama administration set a record for the number of times its federal employees told disappointed citizens, journalists and others that despite searching they couldn't find a single page requested under the Freedom of Information Act, according to a new Associated Press analysis of government data.
In more than one in six cases, or 129,825 times, government searchers said they came up empty-handed last year. Such cases contributed to an alarming measurement: People who asked for records under the law received censored files or nothing in 77 percent of requests, also a record. In the first full year after President Barack Obama's election, that figure was only 65 percent of cases.
White House spokesman Josh Earnest said Friday he was not familiar with the figures showing how routinely the government said it can't find any records, although the Justice Department also highlighted them in its own performance report.

In some high-profile instances, usually after news organizations filed expensive federal lawsuits, the Obama administration found tens of thousands of pages after it previously said it couldn't find any.
a) Crickets from the liberals
b) Some whiney babble about Bush and the Iraq war
I will give Obumbler credit. He's done the exact opposite of EVERYTHING he promised to do. I'm starting to question the existence of God. He should have struck this guy down at breakfast his first day in the whitehouse.

Ha, the polar opposite of the Obama claim "to be the most transparent Administration ever".
in reality you cut the budget-- there are less people working on that and less time- so wait-- until the sun dies in the sky- because there are more budget cuts for 2016
