Hmmm...coupla comments....
I was thinking the same thing about Berger's theft after the debate, but not in the context you mentioned.
FR was all over the removal of Nat'l Security proposals from the Kerry web site after the SandyBurglar's exploits became known.
As for the volume of untranslated materials...that has been around forever and a day. The papers have been talking it up lately, but the shortage of linguists in both the military and the civilian intelligence agencies has been a problem since before the Army trained me in 1976-'77.
We have never been able to translate all the material we possess, and one of the challenges in the business is to prioritize what does and doesn't get translated.
Nah, that story came out about a week before the debates.
