Nice of the media to report on it right before Chistmas. Everybody can forget about it and the media can claim to have covered it.
Oops, wrong administration....
The one question that Hillary Clinton should be asked at every whistle stop on her campaign is "What is Sandy Berger hiding?" She claims her time as First-Lady as part of the experience that prepared her for the Senate, ergo Presidency. So, she was there when the deals were being done. What's he hiding?
If this was a Republican theft, Sandy Berger would be a resident of Ft. Leavenworth by now. This issue cannot be brought up enough because future national security could be riding on the very papers that he destroyed.
Did Bill make a deal with Bin Laden to protect the US during his watch? Was his administration aware of an airplane plot scenario and didn't tell the incoming Bush people? What is so important that this man had to risk his fortune and future to protect the Clinton's?
bump
The mind boggles!!
Of course the Republicans could be holding their fire for the presidential campaign by using Berger's actions to tar the presumptive Democratic nominee, right? Nah! But hey, a guy can dream can't he?
Seriously, even if this were the 'game' I wouldn't be happy about it. This goes way beyond politics. Berger should have been charged, tried & convicted. Instead he was charged & pleaded out by a Justice Department that wasn't serious about doing its job.
SCISSORS? The guy couldn't use a diamond-cut shredder?
Strips cut by scissors may be reconstructed by a patient person, as scissor cuts have distinct characteristics, much like the pieces of a jigsaw puzzle. But a diamond-cut shredder is much more difficult to reassemble.
Gee, I hope Sandy at least used blunt scissors, so he wouldn't injure himself while carrying them and running, should he happen to fall.
Thankfully, those operatives were far outweighed by a press more interested in journalism than anyone else’s political agenda.
Actually, they weren't. They were interested only in destroying Nixon. It looked like they were pursuing the story at all costs, but they would likely not have done so against a dim.
And we conservatives are NEVER going to get our country back until such time as we figure out how to deal effectively with the MSM!
The media is way too busy reporting on the horrible state of the economy.
[If you need an end-sarcasm tag for this, you're on the wrong forum.]
Bunk. Not this part of "most of us". I've got this great bridge in Brooklyn I'd like to sell to anyone who thought this was just a foolish mistake.
bttt

And,,, how many doc did Sandy boy flush down the crapper on his many visits to the men's room?
Berger apparently believed that if he removed all copies of this memo from the Commission reading room, the Commission would never see it. In simple language, he was cooking the record. The fact that the Commission was not angered by this indicates that truth was less important than all members of the Commission getting along.
The fact that none of this is front page news is an indication that the MSM prefers to engage in propaganda, rather than reporting what actually goes on.
Compare Martha Stewart’s crime to Sandy Berger’s crimes.
Compare Martha Stewart’s conviction to Sandy Berger’s conviction.
Compare Martha Stewart’s penalty for conviction to Sandy Berger’s penalty for conviction.
Now, compare the media attention devoted to Martha Stewart’s charges, court case, defense, conviction, penalty, and release to the media attention devoted to Sandy Berger’s charges, court case, defense, conviction, penalty, and release.
