One Sandy Berger and a side of lies
Williamson County Review Appeal ^ | Thursday, July 22, 2004 | Phil Valentine

Posted on 07/22/2004 5:05:08 AM PDT by renotse

Stuffing classified documents in his socks, his pants, his coat pockets, Sandy Berger, the former Clinton national security adviser, is in serious trouble. He has admitted taking classified documents from the National Archives prior to the 9/11 Commission’s investigation into the intelligence breakdown that led to the attacks. Professional political spear-catchers like Lanny Davis have scoffed at the notion that Berger stuffed documents in his socks. “I suggest that person is lying. Let’s see who it is who made the comment that Sandy Berger stuffed something into his socks,” said Davis, the former Clinton White House counsel. Let’s see, indeed.

CNN, a network not known for its tilt to the right, cited three law enforcement sources who stated they had seen Berger placing the documents in his socks. Given the historical spin from Lanny Davis and his fellow henchmen, I’d say three law enforcement officers trump a Lanny Davis any day.

The central question now is, what was he trying to hide?

The ironic part of this whole story is the partisan Democrats in Congress who have been squealing that someone has been lying to them now know who. Now that we know it was the previous administration, these same hacks are jumping to Berger’s defense and crying foul over the timing of the investigation. To you shrill, political opportunists in Congress, put one of Sandy Berger’s socks in it.

Hold your nose on this one:

Good background on how they use the research facility:

This is the key issue. When are we going to hear the words "cover up?" I hope the author of this article moves on to fame (Watergate) by way of real investigation.

Until we hear the words "Mr Berger, you have the right to remain silent...........", all of this is just ink on paper and broadcast fill time......

Let's see how this plays. This is only a vast right wing conspiracy to prevent Sandy Berger from going about his important job--rehabilitating the reputation of Bill Clinton. This is nothing more than a hidden attack on his holiness via Sandy Berger by a bunch of bitter Christians who don't dance. Its time to move on.

In particular its time not to talk about the Kerry/Berger connection. In other words, Berger goes down hard in the media--twisting in the wind comes to mind--but there will be only a cursory mention of his ties to Kerry and no push in the media to find out what it was he took.

THIS fact is being LOST with the skerry media whores.

Sandy Berger’s Heavy Lifting NRO ^ | 7/21/04 | Byron York: The documents Berger took — each copy of the millennium report is said to be in the range of 15 to 30 pages — were highly secret. They were classified at what is known as the "code word" level, which is the government's highest tier of secrecy. Any person who is authorized to remove such documents from a special secure room is required to do so in a locked case that is handcuffed to his or her wrist.

It used to be that The DemonRats would justify opening a Congressional Investigation on the basis of what they called"The Seriousness of The Charges"(never mind a lack of evidence).Now they cry foul because of "The Timing of The Leaks"(By the way,there is a SURFEIT of EVIDENCE"!!!!!

Jesus said, You are the children of your father, the Devil, and you want to follow your fathers desires. From the very beginning he was a murderer and has never been on the side of truth, because there is no truth in him. When he tells a lie, he is only doing what is natural to him, because he is a liar and the father of all lies. (John 8: 44)

Perhaps, when faced with the option of either ..you go and perform this mission to get that incriminating evidence out of the archives.., or ...you wind up like Vince Foster..., Berger 'inadvertantly' agreed to the mission.

Soon, I imagine, Woodward will get his new deep throat, and then next thing you know, the book becomes a motion picture, then generations can learn to hate the Klintoon era.

Oh well, enough imagining, they will do their best to spin and bury the import of this crime against our country.

In a related story, Hell has frozen over.

When the best they can come up with is to suggest that the timing is "suspicious", it's pretty clear the are in trouble on this one.

Expect the Dems to start slowly, quietly deserting Berger shortly, as the truth comes out...

/sarcasm is still required for some readers.
If any doubt exists at all that some readers may not "get it", use it.

It is probably only one of the little people. Those expendable ones the Clinton administration runs over in their quest for power and legacy. Like Billy Dale.
