By January, the FBI had been brought in, and Berger found himself in a criminal investigation -- one that he chose not to tell Kerry's campaign about until this week.

This stinks to high heaven. Either he is lieing in order to protect Kerry, or he didn't tell Kerry in order to damage him?

A government official with knowledge of the investigation said Archives employees took action promptly after noticing a missing document in September. This official said an Archives employee called former White House deputy counsel Bruce Lindsey, who is former president Bill Clinton's liaison to the National Archives. The Archives employee said documents were missing and would have to be returned.

What in the holy hell? Why would they be calling Clinton insiders, instead of calling the FBI?

It's all part of the good ol' boy network.

Before this is over we're going to find out how far reaching across party lines that network is.

I expect any day now to hear from a Republican (probably a Senator) about what a wonderful, honest man "Sandy" is....Don't forget, there's still a matter of about 900 missing FBI files....on Republicans.

"Bruce Lindsey, who is former president Bill Clinton's liaison to the National Archives"

I believe that answers your question.

Evidently, Lindsey has some responsibility for x42's archived documents. I'm not familiar how that works.

So clinton and his cronies knew, but didn't tell Kerry. That is one of the most interesting facts about this story. It means Kerry is completely frozen out of the insider's loop.
