Much of the Watergate scandal took several years to become known. Eventually, over sixty people were convicted of crimes.
Berger is not yet off the hook. A federal judge who wished to coerce Berger into talking could probably sentence him for a period amounting to life in prison.
Although reports contend that Lindsey was called, the result was that Berger was asked to return documents.
There is then reason to believe that Berger again stole documents. At this time the NA may have realized that something even more serious was happening. It's possible that the FBI got the new call. Perhaps the FBI was involved intially and asked the NA to call Lindsay. After using the nefarious Patriot Act to begin monitoring phone lines.
Recall that the perjury trap set for Clinton involved a certain blue dress and DNA testing. Nevertheless, Starr's folks DID unravel the conspiracy to obstruct justice in the Paula Jones case. There were plenty of crimes to prosecute and plenty of criminals.
It's possible that a grand jury has been gathering evidence since late last year. Many people may have already testified to this grand jury. There could be a number of indictments for security crimes or perjury just around the corner.
We may discover that, just as with Watergate, the perpetrators just can't believe that they are not smart enough to contain the damage.
Thanks for your thoughtful answer, I was just venting!
What are you referring to re:Lindsey
And you do realize that most of your post was mere conjecture. Do you actually know of a grand jury?
While more significant, this won't receive a fraction of the impetuous provided by THE MEDIA during Watergate...and therein lies the rub. The sheeple may or may not make the right decision at election time (both choices advance socialism though). The fact that we are teetering on the edge with momentum taking us continually toward the drain illustrates the inevitability of the Republics demise.
I hope what you say is true. But why was Kerry in the dark about it all? If an investigation has been ongoing, knowing that Washington is a town of whispers, you can't tell me that Clinton and all his cronies knew all about it and still Kerry is bragging about Burglar being his #1 national security advisor.
