Dick Cheney doesn't want anyone to know who he has been talking to. He ordered secret service officers to destroy all records of visitors. When I first heard of this, I didn't think much of it, but in reading this story, he did so after being sued to release them. Obviously he is trying to cover something up.

The first version I heard of this story, people tried to defend it saying that presidents should have to ability to meet with people in secrecy. I, however, feel that is okay only for a short time after the meeting occurred; after that, the records should be public. Purging those records should not even be allowed, especially with Cheney's controversial ties to Halliburton, among others.
