Well, what else could we expect? Remember the "memo-gate" debacle a few months ago? I'm sure they think that what worked then will work now.
great question! Add to the list this question: Doesn't Berger's incompetent/criminal behavior raise questions about the competence of Clinton's national security team? Doesn't this prove that Berger was more of a second rate political hack than someone qualified to be National Security Advisor?
Or the October, 2000 report of President Bush's DUI arrest years ago in Maine.
If I recall correctly, the Abu Ghraib prison story was being investigated by the Army back in January as soon as they found out about it, but the media didn't report on it until a few months ago. Suspicious timing or just time to report it after the investigation was complete?
Now we have this story, where the theft of top secret documents was being investigated, and then after the investigation is complete and documents retrieved, the results are released.
Since when has the spiking of news and the timed release of it become more important than just releasing the news of an investigation once the investigation concludes?

Don't forget the "DUI discovery"
He was looking at the documents five times? I wonder if he was bringing in fixed uped documents and taking the real ones away.
Well, it's not a October surprise! Sounds more like fools tripping over their own shoelaces.
Berger was slated on a short list to be (are you ready for this?) Kerry's Secretary of State!!!
These people have a "talent" only for stealing elections (1992, 1996). The rat party is an absolute clear and present danger to you and me personally... to our very lives and the lives of our loved ones.
RICO, baby! RICO!
Its the timing of the missile strike, not the nature of the grand jury!
How did you know this info about Berger? I wonder if the Chinese are good friends with Mr. Berger? I wonder if Mr. Berger knows where the missing file from Los Alomos is as well?
They're Italian, too?
Well, it was similar with the Dem Judiciary and Intel memos---the Pubbies didn't get any traction out of the memos' contents, but the Dems got a boost by their feigned rage at 'who leaked it.'
The trouble is, the Pubbies folded on both issues. I would bet the Pubbies will fold on this too, and it will just disappear. The Pubbies seem completely inept and incapable of capitalizaing on events whenever Dems get caught with their hands in the cookie jar or caught with their pants down.
Somebody help me here. Why does Sandy Berger, no longer in a classified government position, still have a security clearance?
I want to know why we weren't told earlier! I think they leaked it to take off the sting!
Someone on Sean's program said that, too.
At least some of the documents appear to be related to the Millennium Plot Report. Ashcroft has detailed some of what was conatined in the report.
The most damaging information is that Clinton was briefed concerning Al Qaeda activity in America and did absolutely nothing. Not only that, but he didn't brief the Bush administration as to the fact that Al Qaeda was active in America and was planning a major attack.
That is precisely what they believe.
It won't work, not on this. Republicans might well be inclined to provide him the "benefit of the doubt". They might cower beneath the weight of the media. The American public will not.
This is serious, it doesn't take lengthy discussion to outline the fact. It involves 9-11. It is sensational enough to arouse curiosity. Sandy once assumed office comparable to Condi Rice. He is connected to both Clintons as well as Kerry. Richard Clarke is being connected to this incident.
This is not comparable to the judicial scandal.
This is huge DESPITE the media or Democrats and they know it.
Another real question is WHO would benefit by bringing this Berger (currently advising JF Kerry) "pant load" to the media a few days before the Demon convention to injure Kerry's team ?
One guess. She's warming up in the bull pen as we speak.
