Sandy Berger: Idiot

[mburbank]

I agree with pretty much everything you said. I think there are two entirely seperate issues here, one being the actual impact of Berger taking these documents at this time (negligable) and the other being what the hell did he think he was doing and what purpose did he suppose it would serve. I'd say how this reflects or raises questions about Sandy's past performance is legitimate, and a side issue of question two.

I'd like to know more. The issue is so muddied by partisan mouth foam and exctable media coverage, the chances of us ever knowing much of the truth, or seperating any truth that comes out from fiction strikes me as just about zero.

I didn't mean to imply that my feeling that the answer to question one is "It doesn't make any difference" meant that the whole issue of what the fuck Berger thought was being accomplished isn't a big question, or that it should be dismissed.
