Oh, no, not boring ME! Please go on Fishtalk! What about Lindsey??????????
I love the speculation .....
The documents were in the 9-11 Commission Reading Room, right? Therefore, the fact that the originals were safe in the National Archives made no difference. Berger pulled the copies from the 9-11 RR so NO ONE ELSE WOULD READ THEM. In other words, he probably mistakenly selected them for the Commission and when he realized the mistake, he had to make them unavailable to the commission.
In stuffing the docs down his pant, he was covering his arse, literally!
