Would be president John Kerry seems to have a few national security ethics problems before he even gets to the nominating convention.
Or perhaps we can illustrate better with a question: Besides being rabid liberals, what do Joseph C. Wilson IV, Jamie Gorelick, Richard Ben-Veniste, Richard Clarke, and Sandy Berger all have in common? Sure, they all worked for the Clinton fiasco and all are egotistical and brash; but that's not the point. Now they are all helping the Kerry campaign in one way or another -- often behind the scenes. And, as is often the case with the Clinton cabal, not everything they are doing is legal.
That 9-11 Commission, containing Gorelick and Ben-Veniste, turned out to be little more than a joke.
Gorelick lied to the commission by not telling them about her "wall" memo while at Justice. Ben-Veniste is there to protect the Clinton administration. Most other members of the panel seem to be little more than ex-politicians wanting some limelight. Clarke testilied because he wanted the media exposure to sell his book and trash the Bush administration. Berger testified, probably incorrectly, to cover up Clinton administration misdeeds.
So, the commission heard plenty of lies from the Clinton cabal. Wilson has been exposed by both the U.S. Senate Intelligence Committee and in a British Parliamentary Inquiry as being little more then a tool of the Democrats, used to cast a bad shadow on the Bush administration. Just another Clinton cabal liar, in other words.
This week we learned just how deep the cover-up really went. As Fox News reported: "Former President Clinton's national security adviser is under criminal investigation for taking highly classified terrorism documents that should have been turned over to the independent commission probing the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks, FOX News has confirmed."(1) Sandy Berger's home and office were raided by FBI agents with search warrants and the FBI found documents Berger was not supposed to have.
What was Berger trying to cover up? Simple.
He swiped drafts of sensitive after-action reports concerning the Clinton administration's handling of Al Qaeda terror threats during the December 1999 millennium celebration. Berger ripped off documents that showed Clinton was warned about the Al Qaeda problem and how it may impact our security. Clearly, the Clinton cabal did not want those documents to get to the commission because they proved, unequivocally, that the Clinton administration really screwed up. Can't have that. So Berger stole them.
Problem is, some of those documents were classified above top secret. They were never supposed to leave the archives for any reason.
Some press reports indicate that the Archival staff became alerted when certain documents began to disappear.
After all, these archive workers are responsible for keeping them where they belong, locked up. So, they intentionally marked a few to trap Berger.
Last week, Berger said in a prepared statement:
"I deeply regret the sloppiness involved, but I had no intention of withholding documents from the commission, and to the contrary, to my knowledge, every document requested by the commission from the Clinton administration was produced." Sure they were, because the commission didn't know to ask for the good ones. Anyway, they were missing.
The Clinton cabal's professional prevaricators came out to defend Berger, of course, but they look like clowns doing it. For instance, old Holy Joe (Sen. Joe Lieberman, D-Conn.), tried to fluff it off by saying that "unless we learn otherwise, I have to assume that what Sandy said was right -- that any removal of documents was inadvertent. But it is serious."
Their word of favor last week was "inadvertent."
Interesting word, that: "Marked by unintentional lack of care, " it usually means. Not applicable here, in other words. Berger cared enough to steal and destroy documents so others will not know how badly the Clinton administration messed up. Berger cared enough to sneak the documents out of the protective custody of the archivists in his underwear. Which means, Berger cared enough to commit a few major felonies to insure the cover-up.
Next question: How much of this information got to Kerry? We need to know that. Because, being both a lawyer and a senator, Kerry well knows that receipt of any of that secret information is also a felony punishable by a few years hard time.
Anyway, we must always keep in mind that all of the liars mentioned above are working to help Kerry.
Most also expect positions in the administration if Kerry wins. Scary, huh.

fyi
They are all agents of influnce. They are all crypto-Marxists. They are all traitors.
The $64,000.00 question.
I'm more interested in how much info went to John Kerrys foreign supporters.
John Kerry seems to have a few national security ethics problems before he even gets to the nominating convention."The Elephant Man Had A Little Puffiness Around The Eyes" ping list.
So somebody needs to slap Ketchup Boy and Burger with arrest warrants. I vote to serve one to Ketchup Boy on Thursday just after he completes his acceptance speech. What finer way to close the Rat convention?
Hey, Kerry's campaign can't be in trouble! He went to Vietnam!
LOL!
Perhaps the title of this article should have been More Kerry Campaign Problems.
Pray for W and Our Troops
This may not have been the first time that documents disappeared from the National Archives.
Is it possible (or probable) that Berger and/or other ex-Clinton Administration officials have been "cleaning-up" the document trail at the National Archives since 9/11?


Even the ketchup flip-flops!
The leaders and funding units Soros and Teddy the lifguard Kennedy, are the driving force behind this entire circus.
OPs4 God Bless America!
Add this to the 10,000 other deep cover-ups in the 8 years of Clinton reign.
I'm not looking forward to the day of hearings on this issue for I have been burned out on "I don't recall" and "this is just another VRWC tactic to defame our parties loyalty to our country".
Let alone the au(F'in')dacity of these elitists to belittle the intelligence of the American public with statements such as, "I inadvertently stuffed classified documents in my sock, and I am sorry, however it could happen to anyone".
That's somethign you just can't fix.
A hurdle which should have been jumped loooong before running for President! ; )
I hoped that Clinton scandals would end when he left office. Clinton scandals are like herpes. You can't get rid of 'em and every so often you get a flare up.
I am interested in the same thing. After all, the clintons who had no real money of their own sold us out to China. John Kerry has no real money of his own. Do you think he likes having to ask Taaaaayresa for pocket $$? He would sell us out in a New York minute.
And just who was involved as a promoter of China trade etc before becoming National Security Advisor ? Sandy Booger, that's who.

Perhaps the FBI will shed some light on that dark matter.
