Every single piece of paper is controlled - not to mention the bright, multicolored classification sheets attached front and back. And, that every single document, every copy, must be signed for and the original receipt kept in the control area.
Any Freepers out there who work/worked in classified area? I spent 34 years in such before I retired.
One other question, wouldn't Sandy Berger have been debriefed when Bush took office. He was no longer National Security Advisor and had no need for access. If this be the case, why was he (now uncleared) allowed to have these documents?
A couple of months after I retired, a big problem arose on a project I had been working on. They wanted me to come back to help out but security wouldn't allow it. Said I would have to have a background check and be re-cleared.
Incidentally, for all the clearances he received and for which he was briefed, he had to sign a statement concerning the handling of Classified Material. It plainly states that if you mishandle or give information to uncleared personnel, you WILL BE PROSECUTED!
Could he have removed documents pertaining to the TWA Flight 800 tragedy?
Remember, one of the 911 Panelists is Jamie Gorelick who just happened to take over and run the whole FBI investigation of the case. It was decided that it was "just" an accident.
Could it be that ripples are starting to spread since a retired airline pilot has filed suit in Los Angeles against Boeing and the FBI. He wants files released.
