Hiding Something?

From Raw Story:

The Federal Bureau of Investigation has responded to a request from a San Francisco-based blogger for Vice President Dick Cheney’s FBI file—but has been withholding its release since September 2005.

In a letter to blogger Michael Petrelis, of PetrelisFiles.com, the section chief for the FBI’s records management division acknowledged in August 2005 that the bureau had located some 780 pages on the vice president. To date, Petrelis hasn’t received a single page on Cheney.

Petrelis said the FOIA office had told him that the delays were due to the declassification process. After the office locates files relevant to a request, they must then be examined by government censors to expunge any information believed to jeopardize national security.

If you've got nothing to hide..... why not release the records?
