That said, the only people wanting it stifled are Kerry defenders.
I don't think it is a good idea to confirm that information is classified. Then the enemy know that it represents official thinking.
Berger is working for Kerry. The document that people are speculating about was written by Clarke at the request of Berger. I would expect that whatever Berger writes for Kerry would reflect what he has learned in his former position. He can't plagiarize his own policy papers.
You wrote: "If that web posting by Kerry really does contain anything "secret" then they should say so, and we can all remove the related files. It is not marked "Top Secret", "Confidential" or "Classified"."
"REALLY DOES contain anything secret"??? I thought that the premise of this thread was that Kerry demonstrated that he USED classified information on his website? Do I detect backpeddling? Isn't this thread titled "SENATE REPUBLICANS ACCUSE JOHN KERRY OF USING CLASSIFIED INFO STOLEN BUY SANDY BERGER."
Even though Kerry has not identified his posted materials as classified, people on this thread have identified them as classified. Would you really be willing to use classified materials on your website just because they aren't labelled as classified? Isn't that what you say John Kerry is doing? Don't you read the red directions when you post that say "Loose lips sink ships"?
In fact, of course, as I keep pointing out, Chamblis did not accuse Kerry of using classified materials. He asked a question that implied this might be the case. He said, "Senator Kerry knows better than to utilize those documents in any way, and we think it needs to be called into question as to WHETHER OR NOT they have." http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=39550
Now I think if Berger is doing policy papers for Kerry they are going to resemble the policy papers he wrote or ordered Clarke to write when they were working for Clinton. And you are going to accuse him of plagiarism?
I am surprised it doesn't occur to anyone to criticize the Clinton policy.
George Bush isn't talking. He is staying quiet. You you guys admire Bush, maybe you should toe the party line and be quiet.
