Former President Bill Clinton's national security adviser, Sandy {stuff my socks} Berger apologized for taking highly classified documents from the National Archives and agreed to forfeit his license to practice law. Wow! Since he has not used it in 15 years anyways exactly how is this a punishment?
"I have decided to voluntarily relinquish my license," Berger said After cutting a deal that a Republican would never be offered.. "While I derived great satisfaction from years of practicing law, I have not done so for 15 years and do not envision returning to the profession. I am very sorry for what I did, and I deeply apologize." No he is not sorry for what he did, he is sorry he got CAUGHT!
Berger can avoid being cross-examined by the Board on Bar Counsel by agreeing to forfeit the license. Details about the formal agreement should be worked out on Thursday. Once again Slippery Sandy skates with little backlash. If this were a Republican Security advisor, the Democratically controlled congress would be screaming for Berger to testify under oath, committees would be formed, conclusions drawn before any facts came out, the MSM would be screaming for his to be imprisoned for life. But since Berger is a Democrat and a protege of Bill Clinton, nary a whisper from Congress or the MSM>
Berger served as Clinton's National security adviser from 1997 to 2001. Berger was fined $50,000, sentenced to 100 hours of community service and barred from access to classified material for three years. Three Years!!!! Three years!!! that means he can go steal more documents that are damaging to the Democrats.
Where is the Justice in this? A man that knows better stole documents that were damaging to Bill Clinton right before Berger was due to testify before the 9/11 commission.
Who Knows what he might have hidden in other files to be stolen at his leisure after his THREE YEAR BAN!
