It is too bad. Justice would be served if these people were to be behind bars.

[jrooney]

Excellent post! Thank you for the rundown.

The new congress would still be investigating.

This is how 'Rats and RINOs have lied about this case: they grossly understate the significance of what the Burglar is known to have done, pretend it was all inadvertent (that story sure fell apart completely) or done for "convenience" of preparing testimony for the 9/11 Omission, and ignore the FACT that this Burglar scumbag had ample opportunity to steal and destroy all manner of ORIGINAL docs that were not inventoried..... for those liberal gasbags in DOJ to pretend that the known crimes of Sandy Burglar are insignificant ignores every aspect of the facts of the case. DOJ, State, and CIA have been proved over and over again to be infested with liberal vermin who do not have the law or the interests of this nation at heart.

"Another telling revelation concerns Mr. Berger's access to original, uncopied and uninventoried documents from the files of former NSC antiterror official Richard Clarke, among others. At the time Mr. Berger made his misdemeanor plea agreement, we were assured by then-federal prosecutor Noel Hillman that there was no evidence that Mr. Berger destroyed or intended to destroy any original documents. That was, strictly speaking, true. But during three of Mr. Berger's four visits to the Archives in 2002 and 2003, the former National Security Adviser did have access to original documents of which no adequate inventory existed or exists."

When the Libby case is settled in court and Fitzgerald's laughable evidence is shredded and his knowledge of the true leaker of Armitage is exposed, he should be tried on ethics violations, disbarred, sued by Libby and any potential criminal charges brought against him. Fitzgerald, NiFong and Ronny Earle are all from the same mold.

If I am not mistaken he had dealings with China.probably the biggest fear the rats have is that new unfavorable deeds by the clintonistas will pop up.They never were big on bimbo eruptions.
Anything goes with them. They are just another version of the mob, so why ever be surprised at what they do.

Isn't it amazing... The Dems can come up with all sorts of lies about President Bush, and threaten impeachment, but Sandy Berger can actually committ a federal offense, and he continues to walk around without any hint of jail time.

[Dutch Boy]

Is it possible to file new charges against Berger for stealing documents other than the ones defined in the original case? I'm sure there are doocuments he took that weren't discovered until later.

"There is no evidence" is a well-worn clintonoid phrase. The reason there is no evidence, of course, is that clinton ordered the documents to be shredded. Or he ordered the hard drive to be destroyed. Or he ordered the safe to be opened and the x-rays to disappear. Or he ordered all the negatives to be exposed while being developed.

So, it's perfectly true. There's no evidence. It was destroyed. In this case, it was destroyed by Sandy Berger, with the complicity of people in the National Archives who watched him steal numerous documents before taking any action, and when they finally did take action . . . they called Clinton's lawyer!

It was also destroyed with the complicity of Gonzalez and the Department of Justice, who helped cover up after the fact. Without their active help, and the help of the clintonoids on the 9/11 Commission, it would have been a lot more difficult to say, "There is no evidence."

[wildbill]

"Thanks to Justice's and the Archives' leniency, or laxity, or both, Mr. Berger's plea deal expires in 2008--just in time, perhaps, for the next Clinton Administration"

this is what the Dept of Justice has acquiesced to: a plea of "please don't throw me in that briar patch."

[tarheelswamprat]

...Bush adm. hasn't lifted a finger to examine the evidence while it's still fresh.

You have hit on the big question, what the hell is really going on here.

There is an answer, but neither the American people nor the majority of Freepers are willing to face it. Never underestimate the human capacity for denial, especially when people's very concept of reality is threatened. As Jack Nicholson said in "A Few Good Men", we can't handle the truth, and that will be our undoing.

[kellynla]

buzz off with your racist comments of "brown face".

"buzz off?" fyi, I posted this article and is my thread...and if you think revealing the putting of an Hispanic who has done very little since he's been in office as "racist" then you best invest in a dictonary. LMAO

P.S. Do a Google search on Noel Hillman. Two interesting facts: He stepped down from his position in charge of the investigation of the Abramoff affair in January 2006 when President Bush nominated him for a federal judgeship.

And he was chief federal prosecutor in New Jersey during the Clinton years. I presume that makes him a clinton pick, since clinton fired all the U.S. Attorneys when he came into office and replaced them with his own stooges. One of these stooges evidently must have brought him on board when he took office, in one of the most notoriously corrupt states in the Union.

1992 - 2001 United States Attorney’s Office
District of New Jersey
Assistant United States Attorney (1992-2001)
Deputy Chief, Criminal Division (2000-2001)

Bush then brought him into the Justice Department in 2001.

Do I know he was corrupt for sure? No. Do I find these dates suspicious? Yes. And his having been put in charge of the Abramoff investigation as well as the Berger investigation suggests that he is a career political operator, who can be trusted to do what he is told to do.

[Mr. Brightside]

It breaks my heart that the Bush Administration hasn't lifted a finger to examine the evidence while its still fresh.

And Congress, too. What the hell have they been doing for the last six years?

.......the biggest fear the rats have is that new unfavorable deeds by the clintonistas will pop up.......

We don't have to go very far to get the goods on Bill/Hillary and their fellow creeps----only problem is getting it prosecuted.

[Liz]

You are very welcome.

[TruthWillWin]

A lot of stories on this the last week at FR. Keep them coming. Too bad the MSM does not cover this.

"...there is plenty we still don't know and may never learn."

Because of a coverup by Democrats and Republicans in Washington??? Is this what they mean by bipartisanship???
