From a military guy with experiene dealing with classified docs:

There is a worse interpretation than the current one that Sandy Berger took the memos, notes and documents consciously, whether to avoid embarrassment or for whatever reason.
What if he is telling the truth? What if he did take the material “inadvertently”? Think about this for a minute. For that to be true, concealing documents and classified notes on his person to take them home must have been a routine, ordinary action. People do not commit felonies “inadvertently” unless they are above the rules (in their minds) and habituated to doing so. For all of his defenders to be agreeing with this defense is truly worrisome since it means they have the same view of how to handle classified material. (Those harsh rules are just because security types are obsessive-compulsives.)
Which introduces the next question. What else has been lost and/or compromised over the years of the Clinton administration if this type of information handling was common or at least accepted?
