"[W]e know Mr. Berger as a highly respected public official and he has a lot of friends at Cornell."

I'll bet.

One more thought...

Apparently undergraduates, never having had the joy of doing a document production, do not understand the value of multiple, not-merely-duplicate copies of a distributed documents.

The key to these documents is the draft process, as well as the hand written notes in the margins, which makes the collection of all copies far more valuable than a single copy that is merely representative of the final, washed work product.

President Jeffrey S. Lehman '77 declined to comment on the controversy. "I don't really know anything

these people are awfully stupid for being so highly touted as educators.

What's worse - stealing national security documents or getting information on another political party?

I HATE liberals.

I immediately returned everything I had except for a few documents that I apparently had accidentally discarded."

THAT is the truly frightening part. What did those 'accidentally discarded' documents contain?

Fellow FReepers, I hate to say this, but if this goon isn't charged with something very, very soon,

I'm going to start acting like an illegal immigrant or a Democrat and just start doing whatever I want....to Hell with the 'law'.

Not stupid at all. Simply defending their own if it protects the leftists from the law.

Pathetic but typical of the so called elitists in academia.

President Bush may be thinking that it would be more prudent to wait until he's safely re-elected. There's SO much going on right now, and we haven't even reached the "October Surprise", whatever devious nastiness may be thrown at him. The Dems are desperate, and they will do anything, ANYTHING, to get President Bush out of the White House.

Linda Grace-Kobas, director of the Cornell News Service [said] "He has not been charged...It's far too soon to make any judgments, but we know Mr. Berger as a highly respected public official

Contrast the rush to defend liberal Berger with Cornell's deafening silence towards the attacks on "Neocon" Paul Wolfowitz, also a CU alum.

...many seem supportive of Berger, who has maintained ties to his alma mater, visiting the campus as an Olin Lecturer in June 2003. He is also scheduled to give a lecture this coming year as part of Cornell's Mock Election events, which will be co-sponsored by The Sun...."I would expect to see him back at Cornell at some point," said Linda Grace-Kobas, director of the Cornell News Service. "We know Mr. Berger as a highly respected public official and he has a lot of friends at Cornell."

Ithaca is the City of Evil.

It looks like Ulysseus should return to Ithaca and bring his bow with him.

So Sandy has some Cornell friends, some high up, maybe he gives to the fundraising campaign or speaks on campus. And that would have WHAT to do with whether he stole highly classified documents from the National Archives? For the amount of tuition they charge, you'd think they could handle a class or two on LOGICAL THINKING. The city and campus of evil are cancers within our lovely Finger Lakes region.

Well, if he ISN'T re-elected Berger won't be charged at all.

Bush needs to stop being a nice guy. Politics is war by other means.
