22 million Bush White House e-mails recovered

The White House has agreed to restore 94 days worth of e-mails that vanished during the Bush administration, liberal watchdog group Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington announced Monday. Under a settlement, the Obama administration said it will rescue the missing e-mails from backup files, then send them to the National Archives and Records Administration. CREW sued the Bush White House after it learned potentially millions of e-mails from between March 2003 and October 2005 had disappeared.
