Lawmen Contradict Berger's Sox Docs Denials

Law enforcement officials are contradicting denials from Sandy Berger's lawyer and two friends who say the former National Security Advisor never stuffed super-secret 9/11 documents into his socks during three or more visits to the National Archives last fall.

Reports CNN's Bob Franken: "Three law enforcement sources talking to CNN's Justice Department correspondent Kelli Arena [say] they saw him, or that he had been seen putting documents in his socks." Earlier in the day, Berger's lawyer Lanny Breuer dismissed allegations that his client had crammed the secret files into his pants and socks, calling those reports "ridiculous."

Former Clinton press secretary Joe Lockhart challenged the socks-stuffing account as well, telling CNN, "That is absurd - and anyone who says that is interested in something other than the truth."

Former Clinton White House counsel Lanny Davis bluntly rejected the socks-stuffing witnesses, saying, "I suggest that person is lying. Let's see who it is who made the comment that Sandy Berger stuffed something into his socks."

According to Davis, Berger is "a person of impeccable honesty and integrity."

He stole documents- who cares about where he stuffed them- he shouldn't have had them in his house.

Just like the entirety of bill clinton's administration was the most ethical since before Adam.

Debka reports that it highly likely that a videotape of Bergers burglering is what is the basis for these specific claims of where he placed the stolen secrets.

It seems like Sandy forgot that DeeCee is under new management when he went in there to do his nefarious deeds.

May all the truth will out here, quickly.

The key element in this un-Sherlock Holmes *drama* is that Berger went there at bill clinton's behest to sift through the documents.

It was reported on CNN's Newsnight with Aaron Brown that there were NO cameras in the archives room in question.

I know this was reported because I immediately yelped, "NO CAMERAS IN THE ROOM? HOW IN THE HECK CAN YOU NOT HAVE SURVEILLANCE IN THAT ROOM?"

Amazing. I likely couldn't steal something from the dumpster behind the McDonald's down the street without itbeing recorded by a camera yet a room full of highly-classified, sensitive documentation doesn't?

Yes, he DID put docs in his socks, but he didn't know it, it was unintentional, a mistake, not relevant, a neo-con conspiracy, strangely timed accusations...
