Ditto. I've been trying to find someone who can provide a MOTIVE for what Berger did; determining a motive - and what that motive happens to be - will be the key to whether this story gets "legs."

I've been trying to find someone who can provide a MOTIVE for what Berger did Probably to protect his own legacy, more than someone else's.

Well, we know they were not 'good motives'. . .
. . .first and foremost; we know the motive was to protect; and prevent/hide from authoritive scrutiny - information that must be considered damaging/threatening; with the purpose to empower and protect, someone/some group whose motives and agenda are not served by the truth.
IMHO; that would be Clinton 'cabal'; so to speak.
(Think Kerry's name, despite his 'role' on National Security; is simply being tossed out as a destructive - one stone - two birds diversion; no more than a red herring; a favorite tactic of the Left.)

I've been trying to find someone who can provide a MOTIVE for what Berger did...While I won't speculate as to what may have been in Berger's mind, we now have some facts to help us partially outline motive:
- Berger "reviewed" the documents to (a) prepare for his own testimony, or (b) at the behest of Bill Clinton, or (c) both.
- The documents in question related to the plot to blow up LAX at the turn of the New Year in 2000 what has become known as the Millenium Plot.
- The documents in question were CRITICAL of the Clinton administration's handling of terrorism.
- Knowing the above, AT MINIMUM, Berger was checking into what negative material was in the National Archives and, therefore, either in or soon to be in the hands of the 9/11 Commission.
- He made notes and took copies of selected documents, AT MINIMUM to help Clinton, Berger himself, and possibly others (ahem wink, wink, nod, nod) to arrange the story he would tell to the 9/11 Commission.
If Berger had deeper motives, such as to in some way damage GWB or to assist Dean and/or Kerry, we may never know. However, we should not close our minds to the possibility.

See this thread for motive:
Mark Levin: This is why Berger stole the documents and 'lost' them
And this nice summary from the thread:

"This should bring down the Clinton legacy for good, but they will see to it that it will not. I firmly believe the Clinton's sent Berger in to get rid of the evidence."
It's absolutely incredible. The documents Berger stole apparently were releated to the Millennium Plot review. In that review, Clinton was briefed that Al Qaeda had infilitrated the United States and was planning an attack. And Clinton did nothing!
And then? He sent his national security advisor to steal the documents? Wow!
