I hate to state the obvious, but those 'monitors' are a bunch of faggots.
A STING! for G-ds sakes, how about 'No, sir' when asked to leave. If they had just done their jobs and not been thrown off by Burger's orders, (NOT their superior) none of this would have happenned.
'Oooh, he told us to leave, so we, being the sissy willed public employees we are, covered our eyes and ears and sang 'la la la la la' so we wouldn't hear him steal documents'
Are Americans such idiots to accept this? Was there a gun? A physical threat? This had to take a YEAR TO COME OUT. What a joke.
You are so RIGHT. This country is nearly FINISHED, and I mean it, when the mainstream media is this evil and biased, and the American people are so ignorant, for the most part.
I doubt that it was their idea alone to permit him to do this. People in those jobs know that the person at the bottom of the totem pole is the one most likely to get fired first, so I don't think they would have taken it upon themselves to violate the rules so blatantly.
I suspect they were told by some superior to let Berger do this; and that that superior had been told by someone else to give Sandy free rein. Since the first person the archivist called after the theft was detected was Bill Clinton's lawyer, I think we know where this all goes. Even though the lawyer was the NA's liaison with Bill, there was no reason for Clinton to even be involved in this - they weren't Clinton's private papers - but he obviously was.
My thoughts exactly. Ashcroft is AWOL on this.
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.
