Here's the best theory I've heard; Someone printed 10 copies of some proposal. The proposal was to actually DO something about the intelligence they had that Bin Laden & co. were trying to cause trouble at the Millenium celebrations (Dec. 2000). The copies were circulated to the higher-ups, Berger, Allbright, Cohen, the usual suspects. They all wrote their notes and reactions on their own copies, which amounted to "this won't go over", "we need to poll this", "Can't support this", etc. So there were 10 copies of the same doc, but with separate notes., Berger didn't want the Commission to see these notes, showing what poll slaves they were. So he pilfered all the copies.

That makes the most sense of any explanation I've heard.

The documents that Berger has acknowledged taking -- some of which remain missing -- are different drafts of a January 2000 "after-action review" of how the government responded to terrorism plots at the turn of the millennium. The document was written by White House anti-terrorism coordinator Richard A. Clarke, at Berger's direction when he was in government.

The different drafts may contain different versions of the same story to see how each come across in the polls. Does this one make Bill look more like a hero or this version?
