Would you like to take a stab at explaining to me how someone doesn't realize they've taken a leather portfolio? And two or three copies of a report? I'm having a hard time with the logic here.
I'm sure someone will be along shortly to explain it to us!
OH, GAWD....I am deliriously happy..........LOL.
How the hell does someone like this get to be a National Security Advisor?
I've been to the National Archives. You are told ahead of time what you can do and can't do with the documents you are reading. The main rule you are told is that no original documents are allowed to leave the room. In Berger's case, I'm sure he was advised beforehand of note taking, copying, etc. He wasn't just put in a room and allowed to read these documents. He was thoroughly instructed on what he could and couldn't do. And with these items being classified documents, I'm sure the instructions to the readers were that much more intense.
