The Inspector General of the National Archives today revealed some further details of Samuel “Sandy” Berger’s 2003 malfeasance, with regard to classified documents relevant to the lead-up to the 9/11 attacks. Berger, as all would recall, was President Bill Clinton’s National Security Advisor.

The report said that when Berger was reviewing the classified documents in the Archives building a few blocks from the Capitol, employees saw him bending down and fiddling with something white, which could have been paper, around his ankle.

However, Archives employees did not feel at the time there was enough information to confront someone of Berger’s stature, the report said.

Brachfeld reported that on one visit, Berger took a break to go outside without an escort.

“In total, during this visit, he removed four documents … .

“Mr. Berger said he placed the documents under a trailer in an accessible construction area outside Archives 1 (the main Archives building).”

Berger acknowledged that he later retrieved the documents from the construction area and returned with them to his office.

Berger, with the authorization of former President Clinton, was reviewing National Security Council documents on Osama bin Laden and al-Qaida, Sudan, and related presidential correspondence.

Berger, under the terms of the plea deal he agreed to, will regain the ability to be given access to classified material on April 1st of 2008. That is, in plenty of time to be assigned a top position in any potential administration of President Hillary Clinton, or any other Democrat. Who’s the April Fool in this scenario? The current cover of Time magazine might be enlightening.
