Had I done a tenth of what is alleged against him, my clearance would be permanently gone and I'd likely be facing criminal charges. It is another example of elites in this country protecting elites. It's why General Officers get early retirement for the same crime that will put an enlisted servicemember in jail for a few years. This incident brings up a larger issue of security at our national archives. Berger was caught, but I'd be very surprised if he was the first or only high-level government official who did the same thing. The Archive needs an accounting system for every document along with physical searches of EVERYONE who leaves. Mr. Berger must go through a different security clearance process than I did.

Exactly. To put it simply: Berger stole our stuff and got away with it. I'm totally amazed that the guy isn't behind bars. Well, amazed isn't the right adjective, scared is more fitting and I certainly am. It'll get scarier yet if a Dem is elected in '08 and brings good old Sandy back on board. Nothing to stop same, in view of the conveniently timed reinstatement of his security clearance. The thought of his being part of a future administration is disgusting, but I think it likely he would be. “Berger robbed the American people of the only thing owned by all of us; our shared experiences as a nation.”
