The Huff Po is Burying a Story

It is now 2100 eastern time--nearly five hours after Glenn Reynolds had the link--the Huffington Post has not yet put up the Sandy Berger pants stuffing story:

WASHINGTON (AP) -- A judge on Thursday ordered Sandy Berger, President Clinton's national security adviser, to pay a $50,000 fine for illegally taking classified documents from the National Archives.

The punishment handed down by U.S. Magistrate Judge Deborah Robinson exceeded the $10,000 fine recommended by government lawyers. Under the deal, Berger avoids prison time but he must surrender access to classified government materials for three years.

"The court finds the fine is inadequate because it doesn't reflect the seriousness of the offense," Robinson said, as a grim-faced Berger stood silently. . . .

The sentencing capped a bizarre sequence of events in which Berger admitted to sneaking classified documents out of the Archives in his suit, later destroying some of them in his office and then lying about it.

After initially saying it was an "honest mistake," Berger pleaded guilty in April to a misdemeanor of unauthorized removal and retention of classified material, which contained information relating to terror threats in the United States during the 2000 millennium celebration.

It's highly likely that a former National Security Advisor stole pertinent documents in a federal investigation into the worst act of terror in US history. He gets a fine and banned from reviewing classified docs for three years. He may have shredded the Able Danger link that was buried and we now know identified Atta by name. Is this not news?

Arianna's site is doing the same as all her MSM brethren, protecting Democrats.

The legacy of Clinton continues to take down his loyal followers.
