Thanks for thinking of me. Yes, I commented on this thread:

Now, to sum up my thoughts; I was happy to hear he'd plead, then disappointed at reading the first report, then better when I heard Pete Williams on MSNBC report.

Williams' report stated that it is significant that Berger has agreed to plead to "knowingly" removing the documents.

Williams also stated he had learned Berger is cooperating. Williams actually said this seemed mysterious as the case seemed simple enough.

This is what cheered me up because I respect Williams but was surprised by his analysis. I had posited for months that the reason Berger hadn't been charged yet was because they were pressuring him to cooperate.

So...this may not be the end of the story, I hope.

I responded to your ping before reading the NY Times article above.

Whoo boy, they sure did heap as much praise on Berger as they could.

This story does have some information I had not heard, such as the removal of his security clearance for 3 years.

I also had heard in the Williams report that Berger will plead guilty to two counts, the Times appears to say he'll enter a plea on one count.

We shall see tomorrow who is more accurate. Williams said the court appearance is set for 1:30pm tomorrow.
