Before I begin, Hillary Clinton told an audience at the Brookings Institute in December 2015, I want to acknowledge the loss of a beloved member of our foreign policy family, Sandy Berger.
In fact, Berger appears repeatedly in the Wikileaks dump of emails from and to John Podesta, chairman of Hillary Clintons campaign. In reading through them, one gets the impression that if Berger was not an architect of the Iranian nuclear deal, he was at least a major salesman.
Hillary had good cause to praise Berger. In the run-up to the 2004 9/11 hearings, Berger taught Hillary by example that, if you were a prominent Democrat, it was possible to destroy damaging classified information and get away with it.
Like Pulp Fictions Winston Wolf, Bergers job in the Clinton White House was to solve problems. In his first term, Clinton named Berger the deputy national security advisor job and promoted him to national security advisor in the second.
Unlike virtually all of his predecessors -- Colin Powell, Zbigniew Brzezinski, Henry Kissinger -- Berger, a trade lawyer and lobbyist, had no foreign policy expertise. What he did have was the presidents confidence. Clinton had entrusted the then deputy with some highly sensitive assignments, most notably the astonishingly corrupt deals with China, and Berger delivered.
In April 2002, the former president called in his chits. He designated Berger as his representative to review intelligence documents in advance of the various hearings on 9/11. As a 2007 report by the House Committee on Government Oversight and Reform specified, Berger did not welcome this assignment.

Did he die, or just leave the Clinton team?
In 2004, Comey, then serving as a deputy attorney general in the Justice Department, apparently limited the scope of the criminal investigation of Sandy Berger, which left out former Clinton administration officials who may have coordinated with Berger in his removal and destruction of classified records from the National Archives. The documents were relevant to accusations that the Clinton administration was negligent in the build-up to the 9/11 terrorist attack.

Died Dec. 2015...just before Hellery’s run for dictator.
Weasels abound. What is a group of weasels? A cabal of weasels. Comey, of course, said it himself. “We are weasels.” As such they are part and parcel of the most singularly corrupt cabal of weasels in documented human history.
death said to be from bile duct cancer....just in time for Hillery...he knew where the bodies are buried and not he is too....dead men tell no tales.
Reminds me of Chicago...as a card-carrying Republican your entire life, when you die in Chicago, you vote Democrat into eternity.
So Comey’s been betraying this country for a while it seems. When will we indict HIM? So much for people trying to say he is a Republican, more like he is a crooked liberal /RINO
“Comey, then serving as a deputy attorney general in the Justice Department, apparently limited the scope of the criminal investigation”
It appears Comey’s legacy will be how he assisted the corruption every step of the way, regardless of where he served.
Maybe we should designate a title for all this nastiness: Fibbie-Gate? Bugeyes-Gate? Operation Pantsuit? Jailbait-Gate? Unsteadygait-Gate?
Disgusting!!! Didn’t we used to stand them against a wall wearing a blindfold?
Now they’re coddled and promoted to continue aiding and abetting the corruption of our government officials and the downfall of this country.
Hillary had already been into document destruction over her Whitewater and S&L fraud in Arkansas. Her order at the Rose Law Firm was to “vacuum the files”. Fast forward to scrubbing the server, “Like with a cloth?” She didn’t need Berger to teach her criminal ways.
Thanks. I must have missed that. Too bad. I still think he should be in jail.
Sandy Berger, the sloppy sock bandit, resurfaces.
His company, “Stonebridge” if I recall, might have ties to oil or natural gas exploration in or near Syria.
If my hasting scanning in wikileaks are correct, he was eager for stability in the Middle East. Hillary’s team passed around his editorials on the matter.
