Don't forget, we are now just hearing about Iran's connection to Al-Qaeda, I wonder if the Bush Administration was never briefed about this Intel on Al-Qaead upon his arrival because the Bush Administration would immediately ask why nothing was done about it. In other words Clinton didn't want to brief President Bush on something he swept under the rug.

I still remember Albright criticizing Bush for naming Iran as part of the axis of evil. She said that the Clinton administration had made real progress in the relationship and that Bush's remarks threatened their work.

This looks bad


Berger and his lawyer said Monday night he knowingly removed handwritten notes he had taken from classified anti-terror documents he reviewed at the National Archives by sticking them in his jacket and pants. He also inadvertently took copies of actual classified documents in a leather portfolio, they said.

What the hell is he doing sticking classified documents in his pants? This will really be a blockbuster if they have this on video. Berger just made it a lot easier for the repubs to blame Clinton for the lack of attention to security prior to 9/11. Also, can Kerry keep Berger on as an advisor? I think not.

4. whoa.


not good. just the perception of impropriety will equate to something very bad. i don't think this will effect the election numbers, however. but it will facilitate more clinton blaming for 9-11.

11. He claims he took them to study in preparation for his testimony


so that he could more accurately provide details to the commission. Apparently he has returned most of them but discarded some of them believing that they were duplicate copies of originals. He calls it sloppy, I would call it incredibly stupid.

15. We should be thankful that he's identified as a Clinton adviser


when he's also an informal adviser to Kerry. "Kerry adviser subject of probe" would be worse. It sounds like this investigation has gone on for some time. News probably was leaked now to embarrass the Dems before their convention.
