| Sandy Berger Misdeeds Reportedly Before Grand Jury |
| 2005-01-11 |
| New York Post - hyperbole reduced The criminal probe into why former Bill Clinton aide Sandy Berger illegally sneaked top-secret documents out of the National Archives — possibly in his socks — has heated up and is now before a federal grand jury... Berger admits removing 40 to 50 top-secret documents from the archives, but claims it was an "honest mistake" made while he vetted documents for the 9/11 commission's probe into the Twin Towers attacks. Berger has also acknowledged that he destroyed some documents — he says by accident. |

| #10 I hear the documents he returned that were in his trousers had skid marks on them. So the library was paid back with (hmmmm) interest. Now, who needs a fifth? |

| #8 apparently he took the multiple drafts of critiques of their actions...kinda hard to explain away as an honest mistake |

| #7 Berger might be in some doo doo unless he can get someone to believe it was just an honest mistake. Prior to 911, I guess the Clintonistes were preoccupied with impeachment and Zippergate. They didn't think the AQ boneheads were any kind of threat. |

| #6 "Meet my friend, Ari...." BTW - he's facing 10 yrs per document, and has publicly disclosed (and told the FBI) that he took 40-50, some of which he destroyed...let's do the math? |

| #5 Frank, what are you going to say if Berger says "I'm just glad to see you?" Mmmmmmm. |

| #2 Normal folks make mistakes. Still, normal folks would not get away with stuffing top-secret documents into their clothes and sneaking them out of governmental buildings. Or is this common behavior in DC? |

| #1 Give Berger a break, Judge. He puts his pants on one leg at a time. |
