"We don’t know for sure what documents are missing, and we may never know."
I heard that he never handled the originals, but only copies - so they all should still be there.
Does anyone know the procedures used ?
How did this fool ever get a job in intell.
You are falling for Democrat spin.
Each "copy" was a unique document in that they had all been circulated for review and comment and each had it's own collection of comments attached.
It looks like it was the comments that Berger was stripping away because someone had appended something damaging to the docs.
Suppose for instance, clintion had written on there "we need to do more about airports, we don't want another Jumbo jet brought down off Long Island with a Stinger missile"
that sort of comment would have been devastating once the 9/11 commision got hold of it.
It Appears Berger was going through all versions of the document removing incriminating attachments such as post-its and stealing entire documents where there was something written in the margin that he didn't like.
So what was left was sanitized versions of a report. The incriminating stuff was all stripped away.
That's the democrat spin, but it probably isn't true. Time will tell.
When the director of the National Archives found out that Berger was being investigated by the FBI for stealing classified documents, the director's first call went to.... Bruce Lindsey. That National Archives director was subsequently fired, but I suspect that before he left he likely destroyed the originals at Lindsey's request.
