HILLARY DOCUMENTS WHILE FIRST LADY ARE SEALED UNTIL AFTER THE ELECTION

SANDY BERGER LETTER re: 911 MOVIE

Because no Freedom of Information Act request will be effective in having Hillary's first lady documents released until after the next election, perhaps we can get some help for someone with a certain expertise in acquiring documents. That person would, of course, be Sandy Berger.

The following appeal of help was sent today via facsimile to Berger at his office at 202.637.8615.

Dear Mr. Berger:

I write with a great deal of concern over reports I’ve received regarding the Clinton Library sealing documents of Senator Hillary Clinton while she was First Lady. Apparently, the documents are going to be embargoed through at least November of 2008.

Though I have not been provided with a copy of the embargoed list, I understand that there are a number of documents that the public deserves to see before they vote in November of 2008.

I am especially troubled by the secrecy involved in the effort by Senator Clinton to prevent full disclosure during the campaign.

This subject might be a little touchy for you, but I feel that it is really important that I ask a favor of you and that you will give it serious consideration.

Do you think you could take the time to go to the Clinton Library to review all of the documents? If you are able to fit that into your schedule, we will trust your judgment in determining which are most important for the American people to see before the next presidential election.

Because I doubt that the security will be as intense as at the National Archives, I am hoping that you will be able to stuff them into your pants, take them out of the building, and leave them under a travel trailer near the site. I will provide the location of the travel trailer when I hear from you that you will be able to perform this act of patriotism.

Thank you very much for your help

Respectfully,

(signed DFU)

PS If you discover that the volume of documents is greater than anticipated, I will be pleased to provide you with a larger pair of trousers for the operation.

You realize of course, you just gave Hillary a way to get rid of those documents, and blame it not just on Burger, but Republicans and FR.

Cause you know, they'll end up getting "lost", before he finds that travel trailer.

Way to go DFU... you screwed the pooch on this one. ;-)

[AFreeBird]

A thread pointing to that, popped up here, a couple weeks back IIRC. Full release in PDF form. Try search.

Doug, you’re a genius! Think he’ll go for it?

CAVEAT: For any law enforcement officials who were born without the humor gene and who are reading this post, I want to make it clear that I am not soliciting Sandy Berger to commit a crime. He has already done that and gotten away with it. I have no expectation whatsoever that he will go into the Clinton Library to reprise his famous pants stuffing trick and take any documents that the little totalitarian Marxist Hillary desperately wants to remain secret. This letter was written to him to mock him and to mock Noel Hillman, who let him get away with it. Hillman was rewarded with a position on the federal bench. Get it?

Hey, Sandy, you stole some of history. You are forever going to be remembered for that. You are a major league scumbag.

[doug from upland]

No, he won’t go for it. But he might go for me.

[greyfoxx39]

You are my HERO! ROTFL

[greyfoxx39]

Does the letter writer expect Sandy to stuff the documents into his pants?

Been down here on earth long?

[Grizzled Bear]

I owe you a beer. Several, in fact.

[Grizzled Bear]

You are a major league scumbag.

Sir if you do not take that last statement back we will be forced to take this outside. As a major league scumbag I am deeply offended that you would put me in the same category as Sandy Burglar!

[doug from upland]

[Libloather]

All right - who gets to handle the papers he removes from the front or back of his shorts? Count me out. Maybe give that job to someone at the NY Times...

[doug from upland]

Should the letter be sold on eBay?

[doug from upland]

Ewwwww. I didn’t think of that. I might have to hire an illegal alien, something I’ve never done before.

“Hey, Sandy, you stole some of history. You are forever going to be remembered for that. You are a major league scumbag.”

Words to live by.

Say them loud and often.

[Liz]

Course, we have to hope against hope that Berger still has those ample socks, and wide belt pants, that he used to stuff Archives docs in.

You owe me for a keyboard, I just got sick. At least post a warning next time!!!!!

[Snoopers-868th]

Thanks for the huge laugh. Any reply should be really good. Keep us posted.

[o-n-money]

Getting those documents will be very difficult.Sandy hasn’t worn those pants in years.

I like to replace your keyboard but I blew the screen on my laptop when I posted it.
