This is the first place in print that I have seen what an astute FReeper pointed out two days ago - that the "copies" that were destroyed had handwitten notes on them.

Me thinks someone is going to take Sandy 'fishing' if this story gets longer legs.

Lawrence O'Donnell on "Scarborough" MSNBC, just said that he believes it was Berger who leaked this to the press. That he must have recently told the Kerry campaign what was going on (the investigation) and that they must have told them that he needs to get this out NOW. O'Donnell said that the Bush administration had nothing to do with this leak.

I find this very believable.

All your classified documents are belong to me!!!
(They're in my pants, actually)

All joking aside, who wants to take bets that this story is a non-starter in our fifth column news media. I mean really, those jerkoffs are cheering on this sort of deconstruction of our country.

Aren't all documents at the National Archives microfiched or otherwise (digitally) copied, accurately cataloged, and then stored off-site? Burglar's attempt to "eliminate" the evidence succeeds only if the 9/11 Commission's request for related information dictated staffers comb only the physical record -- and NOT the catalog. Knowing exactly how was the Committee's order/subpoena was worded -- as well as who authored same -- might prove interesting.

Surely Berger remembered that his colleague, former CIA chief John Deutch, got into trouble for taking classified documents home on his personal computer. (He was later pardoned by Clinton.)

Who will give me odds that dubya will pardon Berger after the election?

You all think I'm nuts? Well who'd've ever guessed that dubya would give a glowing testimonial to Slick Willy like he did a few weeks ago?

Ok, who's brave enough to bet that Berger is not let off by this administration?

WASHINGTON (Reuter) - President Clinton's wife, Hillary, and
daughter, Chelsea, flew on the same plane last week that crashed
in Croatia with Commerce Secretary Ron Brown aboard, U.S. Air
Force sources said Wednesday.
A military version of the widely used Boeing 737 passenger
jet flew Mrs Clinton and her 16-year-old daughter from the
Turkish capital of Ankara to the ancient biblical city of
Ephesus and on to Istanbul last Wednesday.
The T43A plane, with a tail number of 1149, was based at the
U.S. air base at Ramstein, Germany, the sources said. Mrs
Clinton used it rather than the Boeing 707 assigned to her for a
week-long goodwill tour of southern Europe because of the short
runway at Ephesus.
The same plane was used to ferry Defense Secretary William
Perry in and out of Bosnia last week. Mrs Clinton also visited
the Yugoslav region during her trip but used a giant C-17
military cargo jet for that leg of her journey.

Leave it to IBD to speak frankly. It always has good editorials.
