NYT: "Waiting for the Truth on Corporal Tillman"

A New York Times editorial reminds us (as if we needed reminding) what we're still waiting for in the investigation into Pat Tillman's death:

Meanwhile, former Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld and three senior generals testified that they knew of no cover-up at the Pentagon or the White House. The bungling and misrepresentations might well have been the Army’s sole doing. Yet the White House could ease doubts by granting the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee full access to key personnel and documents.

The committee has already learned that, immediately after Corporal Tillman’s death, at least 97 White House officials exchanged hundreds of e-mails about how the White House should respond. Yet weeks later, when the truth came out, there was nary an e-mail peep about the astonishing change. Is that because officials had lost interest? Or have embarrassing e-mails been withheld from Congressional scrutiny? The committee needs to find out.
