White House refuses to comply with judges order to provide complete log of Abramoff visits.

The White House said Tuesday the list the Secret Service has been ordered to release concerning convicted lobbyist Jack Abramoff's contacts with the Bush administration will be incomplete.

But spokesman Scott McClellan declined to say what is wrong with the Secret Service list, why it is inaccurate and whether it includes far fewer meetings than took place.

"I don't know exactly what they'll be providing, but they only have certain records and so I just wouldn't view it as a complete historical record," McClellan said.

Tom Mazur, a Secret Service spokesman, declined to comment on why the agency's records might be less than complete.

Not much of a surprise here. This administration has been ignoring more laws then any previous administration since they first unpacked their boxes. The only question is will the courts demand the full list from this White house and not allow them to wriggle out of yet another legal difficulty by being non-compliant.
