Lest ye missed it
Sandy Berger had his date with justice. Odds are good that you wouldn't see this anywhere unless I posted it.
He admitted to stuffing copies of documents in his coat jacket as he left the National Archives and then destroying some at his office and pretending he had never possessed them. Berger had been reviewing the records about the Clinton administration's response to reports of terrorist threats in 2000 as he was preparing to respond to questions from the commission that investigated the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks. "My actions . . . were wrong. They were foolish. I deeply regret them, and I have every day since," Berger told Robinson yesterday. "I let considerations of personal convenience override clear rules of handling classified material."
Why would one go to such lengths? Why does this receive less media coverage than, well, anything? Is the seriousness any less severe than Valerie Plame? Why does one receive so much airplay and the other so little?
