Berger still under investigation
Washington, DC, Aug. 5 (UPI) -- The investigation of former national security adviser Sandy Berger's use of classified material "is ongoing and continuing," a U.S. official said Thursday.
The Justice Department does not acknowledge that Berger is a target of an investigation, but the source told United Press International a report saying Berger has been "cleared" is untrue.

I would hope so considering he was stuffing classified documents into his socks to make sure they would not see the light of day.

What exactly is so tough about this?
Berger enters secured area for classified documents, stuffs documents in pants, then leaves said secured area.
What the &^#$ is there to 'investigate'?

why wouldn't he be under investigation? we seem to think that if it's not in the news then crimes aren't ever acted upon... we also seem to think that if W doesn't come out and condemn criminal acts when they happen that he's telling them to not pursue the investigation... we should know after three years that W isn't going to behave the way we want him to under some circumstances

Here's the most important sentence of the article for posters who won't read the entire article:
The source said the Journal report was missing the point and the investigation is not just about whether anything is missing.
To: MamaTexan
there is need for more investigation because there may be more to the story.

What the &^#$ is there to 'investigate'? Accomplices?
Accomplices caught on wiretaps?
Maybe prominent accomplices caught on wiretaps?
Maybe prominent ex-President or current Senator accomplices caught on wiretaps?
Maybe prominent current Presidential candidate accomplices caught on wiretaps?
Maybe prominent party leader accomplices caught on wiretaps?
Maybe prominent TV talking head accomplices caught on wiretaps?
Ad infinitum

Since I don't feel like wading through that extremely long thread, I'll ask you. What did Perlstein say about Berger?
To: Libloather
I posted a thread on Thursday that illustrates how classified is supposed to be handled. The title of the thread is
Details of Classified Document Handling Procedures.
bout "honest mistakes" vs premeditation. If you have already read this, please ignore.
The thread can be found

The Justice Department does not acknowledge that Berger is a target of an investigation, but the source told United Press International a report saying Berger has been "cleared" is untrue.You mentioned the other day that Berger had been "cleared" and some of us corrected that. Just wanted to add to the documentation.

He claimed that Berger had been cleared, and in his inimitable Perlstein way, implied that anyone who disagrees is an uninformed imbicile.

What the &^#$ is there to 'investigate'? Evidence of who put him up to it (we all know who, but they need proof), and who, if anyone, received any of this classified information illicitly and that type of thing.

This is just my own opinion, but I don't think Berger was trying to sell or otherwise transfer classified information. What I do think he was doing was sanitizing the Clinton records of possible criminal behavior. And no, I don't have any evidence--not yet, at least.
