They sure managed to drip...drip...drip the info on THIS story, as opposed to All DeLay All the Time, and Wilsongate!

Under terms negotiated by Berger's attorneys and the Justice Department, he has agreed to pay a $10,000 fine and accept a three-year suspension of his national security clearance. WOW! What a harsh penalty! This will really deter others from manipulating classified documents to cover up ineptness and crimes!
These terms must be accepted by a judge before they are final,
I don't suppose we can hope for a hanging judge?

Wow! I'm surprised since I thought his fate was a done deal:
The terms of Berger's agreement required him to acknowledge to the Justice Department the circumstances of the episode. Rather than misplacing or unintentionally throwing away three of the five copies he took from the archives, as the former national security adviser earlier maintained, he shredded them with a pair of scissors late one evening at the downtown offices of his international consulting business.

He accepts complete responsibility for his actions, and regrets the mistakes he made during his review of documents at the National Archives." Hmmm. Next time I get caught robbing a bank, I will try this explanation.
"Sir, I regret my mistakes".

Why did he ever bother? He's either very stupid or there's more than meets the eye here.

Archives officials have said previously that Berger had copies only, and that no original documents were lost. It remains unclear whether Berger knew that, or why he destroyed three versions of a document but left two other versions intact. Officials have said the five versions were largely similar, but contained slight variations as the after-action report moved around different agencies of the executive branch. Largely similar! LOL! Not copies.
Maybe he distroyed the copies with his notes "I agree with Dick, Osama will boogie to Baghdad."

A misdemeanor? This only further confirms that there is no crime in high politics as long as high politics write the laws.

Would it be a misdemeanor if I waltzed out the door with classified documents?

So he lied as well as stole documents and destroyed them - un-freaking-believable!
To: DallasMike
I'll tell you one thing, if he goes before a confirmation some day in the future we're likely to hear a lot more about this.

Steal a loaf of bread and unlike good old boy Sandy Berger, you will be charged as a felon and likely do serious time in the hoosegow.

"Under terms negotiated by Berger's attorneys and the Justice Department, he has agreed to pay a $10,000 fine and accept a three-year suspension of his national security clearance." Does this mean he gets his "security clearance" back when the three years are up? Why was he allowed to keep his clearance after he left office? Does Bill Clinton have a security clearance and can he go to Archives and examine, copy or remove any classified document he wishes?

UNBELIEVABLY WEAK!!!
This is unreal - this slimebag should have served JAIL TIME with a FELONY on his record for this. I know this plea deal was discussed or rumored some time ago, but still it's absolutely galling when it's finally announced (and with a Friday night anti-media dump to minimize publicity). At a minimum, the government should never have let him plead without agreement that he would relinquish his security clearance FOR LIFE. I have a friend who used to work in a high office in the Pentagon, who says that outstanding military careers have been ended for much less than this. Sandy Burglar will wash his hands of this and still be eligible to serve in a future 'Rat administration if (heaven forbid) there should be one.....
"Officials have said the five versions were largely similar, but contained slight variations as the after-action report moved around different agencies of the executive branch."
Gee, would those "slight variations" be the handwritten remarks of people like Bill Clinton, Algore, and Sandy Burglar himself???? I know that's been denied by some stories in the past, but it seems pretty near inconceivable he would have bothered to do these nefarious deeds or would have cared about vanishing THREE versions of the report down the Orwellian memory-hole unless they each contained unique features that he simply had to prevent the 9/11 Omission Commission from seeing........ SANDY BURGLAR IS SCUM.
