Here's my concern...he may have been partisan but he was damn close to the President in his position and was quite high up in the organization. If his opinion and attitude was so biased and political, how come no one saw this and continued to support him?
He may be a RAT, may have false intentions and may now work for the Kerry campaign but there were failings here.

Beers was also a central figure in Chinagate. Clinton said he'd have been more careful if he'd known what the FBI did--that the Chinese were trying to buy influence in Congress. The FBI said they'd briefed 2 NSC employees (one of whom was Beers) on this very issue. Clinton responded that the FBI had told those they'd briefed not to pass the info up the chain. The FBI denied that.(I credit their denial. What reason would they have had for such a restriction on the information?)
Thereafter Beers was twice promoted by Albright.
Then came the false affidavit to block the DynCorps suit, which Beers amended in a second affidavit in which he admitted critical statements in the first affidavit were false.
Depends on what the meaning of "is" is type guy.
I have written the Wash Post editors and ombudsman complaining of this reporting--it was written by a lazy reporter or one who was simply acting as a conduit for a candidate.
