I didn't even notice.

But you're right, wanked is most appropriate slip for a Clintonista remark. Those criminals are still wanking us

If Berger were a Republican, we would be treated to the following media circus over the next two weeks:

- Daily above-the-fold newspaper articles containing details of the theft of the documents.

- Explanations of government document security classifications and why the theft of top secret documents poses such a grave threat to our country.

- Interviews with Republican officials asking them if they would continue to support Mr. Berger and the administration.

- An increasing volume of stories and articles pointing out that "this goes all the way to the top" and "what does the President know?"

- How the theft and destruction of these documents prevented the 911 Commission from completing a thorough review of the events leading to Sep. 11, 2001.

- Expressions of outrage at the minimal sentence given to Mr. Berger with suggestions of cover-up.

- Interviews with Democrats calling for the resignation of the President.

I sincerely hope that the justice department tapped Berger's phone before this story went public and have enough to make sure that he does cooperate or the deal is off and Sandy does real hard time.

A guy here in Virginia got at least a year in prison and a $100,000 fine (could have been more just can't remember the details)for stealing Civil War era documents from the National Archives after pleading guilty. With the national security issues involved Berger should be due the same or worse...

Covering for himself, Clinton or both?

Will the 9/11 Commission Members (i.e., Gorelick) get on the air and berate him, like they did Rice?

Of course not.

Any mere citizen would be thrown in jail for life after they were prosecuted under the Patriot Act.

Patriot Act has some strong reporting requirements. Cite me even one abuse of the Act.

"Remember what the demorats did to Senator Packwood???"

As I remember, they even subpoened his diary. (odd that the Democrats are the first ones to scream about "right to privacy")

Martha got prison time for lining her pockets with a little extra cash.

Sandy destroyed National Security Documents and gets his hands spanked.

Our Justice System needs a overhaul.

If Berger was a Republican, doubt if the punishment would have been much worse. But we'd hear about it endlessly in the MSM as "Berglargate".

From THE DAY THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA DIED (tune: American Pie) -- on YOU'VE BEEN FREEPED, Vol. 1

We were singing, bye, bye to Old Media, bye
It was quite a run but you are done and now it won't fly
New Media's here, so be a big girl, don't cry
We were laughing as Old Media died...laughing as Old Media died
Would they do what's right? They're saying, "NO, never"...they thought they were just so very clever
They thought they'd get away with it
Docs were found down in Sandy Berger's pants...and Dan Rather thought he'd take a chance
With those forgeries now George Bush he would get
Dan used them and he was elated...but Bush is misunderestimated
Thanks to a group of sleepers...pajama-wearing FReepers
So Dan Rather's plan would fail...Ken's frequency was now in a jail
A happy ending to this tale
Old Media would die

Because there were some facts out there that were so damning, Sandy Berger was willing to break the law to make sure the public never saw them.
This makes no sense at all as the article states twice that everything taken was a copy.
...three of the five copies he took from the archives...
...Berger put a copy of the Clarke report ...
(just which Clark report was it and where can the public view it at?)
If there were "damning facts" contained in these "copies" then they were/are still available for viewing by the public and should've been aired during The 9/11 Commission's precedings.
Why steal only copies of documents when stealing the original and all of the copies of those documents would be required to keep them from the public's view.
Berger had to know that. This just doesn't add up.
