This is as damning an article as I've read about Berger.

Still puzzled by his extremely light sentence. And disappointed.

The question is who let Berger off the hook? Since Berger was no longer in the Government, it might not have been the Public Integrity office. Whoever it was should be questioned in depth by the FBI and any lie should be prosecuted in the same way Libby was prosecuted.

Arbitrary and selective prosecution should be a major crime.

as discussed on the recent "mega thread" on this topic started by JR himself - Berger was intent on getting the DRAFTS of the after action report for the millenium bombing from the Archives. it makes no sense to steal and destroy the final report, copies of those are everywhere.

why steal the drafts? its the drafts of this report - the ones that contain notes and comments - that tells the true story, the story about what was known about the extent of AQ operations inside the US before 9/11, who wanted to do something about it, and who did not.

I'm not sure there is any path available now to obtain those, or learn their contents, other then by inference. obviously, any leverage with Berger was lost when his case was sidestepped by DOJ.

He belongs to the same club as Mr. Vehicular Homicide, Teddy Kennedy. Instead of going to jail for DUI, homicide, leaving the scene, perjury and obstruction of justice, he has served a life term in the U.S. Senate, representing the idiots in Massachusetts.

Uh, the President is the Chiel Law enforcement officer of the land, go figure.
