WASHINGTON — The Justice Department should administer a polygraph test to former National Security Adviser Sandy Berger to find out what documents he took from the National Archives in 2002 and 2003, Rep. Tom Davis wrote in a letter to Attorney General Alberto Gonzales dated Monday.

Davis, ranking Republican on the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, is leading a group of 18 lawmakers who say the Justice Department has been "remarkably incurious" about Berger's decision to remove documents relating to the Sept. 11 commission's inquiry into his role in helping prevent terror attacks during the Clinton administration.

Why go through all this? He's going to get away with it.

It's not like this guy is you or me. If that was the case, we'd be strung up...

They've been too busy trying to find drug dealers to grant immunity to if they testify against US Border Guards.

Berger agreed to take a polygraph test as part of a plea deal reached in September 2005.

Berger agreed to one??

Hmmmm .. I didn't know that

Berger's actions were designed to protect Clinton. Libby's trial is about getting a jury to endorse the Democrat mantra of "Bush lied" (to get us into the Iraq war). Naturally the DOJ is interested in helping past and future Presidents Clinton, and not in helping past or current Presidents Bush.

I never knew that, but that again, he must figure he can fool the machine.

Some Republican stole a spine from the Congressional museum of quaint antiquities?

Gee, amazing how a Republican finds a "spine" after he has been stripped of any power to do anything about it.

We may never learn what we want to know, but Berger violates his plea agreement if he refuses to take the polygraph. Actually, his refusal might be the best outcome.

I wonder who the other 17 lawmakers are who could be encouraged to energetically pursue this.

You have a point. To give Representative Davis a break, though, I don't think they completed their report until a couple of weeks ago.

I suppose you can add good ol' Sandy Berger to the list of people that drop dead around the Clintons........ He ain't got long now. He will probably be found by Federal Park Service agent early some soon morning.
