Bergergate.

From TownHall.com:

President Clinton's National Security Adviser Sandy Berger - who has been advising the Kerry campaign on foreign policy -- confirms he is the target of a criminal investigation for removing copies of classified terrorism documents from a secure reading room at the National Archives.

Some copies were never returned, press reports said. The documents reportedly discuss the Clinton administration's response to various terror threats.

Berger admits he walked out of the reading room with handwritten notes stuck in his pockets. Copies of classified documents were "inadvertently" removed in a leather portfolio. "I deeply regret the sloppiness involved," Berger said in a statement to the Associated Press on Monday.

The documents in question are said to be critical of the Clinton administration.

But Berger said he had no intention of withholding documents from the 9/11 commission. "To the contrary, to my knowledge, every document requested by the commission from the Clinton administration was produced," Berger said in the statement,

"In the course of reviewing over several days thousands of pages of documents on behalf of the Clinton administration in connection with requests by the Sept. 11 commission, I inadvertently took a few documents from the Archives," Berger said.

"When I was informed by the Archives that there were documents missing, I immediately returned everything I had except for a few documents that I apparently had accidentally discarded," he said.

How does one 'inadvertently' fold up classified material and stuff it into his coat and pants pockets?  I would wager the same way a shoplifter 'inadvertently' stuffs an expensive sweater down his pants.

But let's take Berger at his word and assume it was a case of negligence.  Due to this man's negligence, classified documents are now floating around out there for Gawd-knows-who to find.  Put him in jail.

Maybe if he looks in the bottom of Hillary Clinton's closet, he'll find them.  That's where the Whitewater documents were.
