CNN obtains NARA report detailing Berger's document smuggling
WASHINGTON (CNN) -- CNN has obtained the report issued by the National Archives and Records Administration concluding former National Security Advisor Sandy Berger removed classified documents from the National Archives and later tried to dispose of them while preparing to testify before the 9/11 Commission.

Berger, who was National Security Advisor under President Clinton, pleaded guilty over a year ago to illegally removing the documents. He was fined $50,000 and ordered to complete 100 hours of community service.

CNN has posted a memo that recounts Berger's interview with the NARA.

1. Diversionary tactic?

Instead of covering something important - oh say, like the Iraq fuckup or some missing mountain climbers - let's focus on a non-story involving Clinton. I really don't know why this is even relevant. It wasn't relevant when it occurred, and it sure as hell isn't relevant now.

2. Finding it very difficult to determine

if he took 'original' documents or copies. Or was it just his notes. I still say he took documents showing that Clinton admin. DID something to prevent attacks that he thought could get 'lost' by the bush admin.
