From what I've read and heard it seems like what happened was Berger took documents ) wrote some notes, and made copies of the documents.
Then what happened was he accidently put the COPIES not the originals into a leather portfolio and it was the handwritten notes that he put into his pants and jacket.
Get it? it's HIS OWN NOTES that he stuffed in his pants and jacket.
Quote:
Berger and his lawyer said Monday night he knowingly removed the handwritten notes by placing them in his jacket and pants, and also inadvertently took copies of actual classified documents in a leather portfolio.
Archives employees told agents they believed they witnessed Berger place documents in his clothing while reviewing sensitive Clinton administration papers and that some documents were then noticed missing, officials said.
http://www.eveningsun.com/Stories/0,1413,140~9954~2283729,00.htmlSo essentially the guy screwed up by taking the originals accidently instead of his copies (which who knows where they wound up)
In all it sounds to me that the guy did an irresponsible thing, but it's one of those stupid things that really could've happened to anybody who is in a hurry, but of course the repukes are spinning this so far as to say that he hid the docs in his socks, they infer that his mistake could've created serious security problems, nothing of all the terrorist attempts which were thwarted on this guy is brought up.
http://www.nypost.com/news/nationalnews/25473.htm Oh yea we've known about this for months but NOW they chose to release this? hmm wonder why? (DNC convention, 9/11 commission about to release report)
No no coincidence whatsoever, so now * and his cronies are back to their stiff positions with that look "let's get im boys" we're gonna tear through town and get down to the bottom here folks yep that's what we do we fight terra and idiots who screw things up in the middle of our war on terra.
Yea did they sic the FBI on whoever leaked the personal info of that dissenting CIA agent? Did this administration ever go into high gear when reports came through that Al-queda was poised to strike?
Personally I'd feel safer with a pair of Berger's socks as my protection than with the entire shrub administration.
