The Thursday testimony of J. Scott Jennings, an aide to President George W. Bush, offered further insight into the routine violations of e-mail archiving rules by White House staff.

“I came to the White House, as you said, in 2005, and when I came, I was given two e-mail accounts as you know, and devices such as a BlackBerry and a laptop that were connected to my RNC e-mail account, and only one device, a computer desktop, connected to my official account,” Jennings told Senator Patrick Leahy (D-VT) in the Senate Judiciary Committee hearing. “So, over the course of time, it became efficient and crucial for me to be able to respond to communications in a 24-7 manner.”
