That's President Bush '41, mind you. The National Archive announced today that more than 254,000 pages of presidential records will be available for the public to look at beginning next Monday at the Reagan library in Simi Valley, CA and the GWHB library in Houston, Texas. The archive notes that these records "were still pending with the George W. Bush Administration as of January 20, 2009," took only two months to clear the review process established by President Obama's executive order 13849. Among the records include 13,000 pages of declassified memos on foreign policy topics as well as many presidential briefings.
