Sandy Berger Scandal
Sen. Saxby Chambliss, R-Ga., said he found it coincidental that the missing documents had to do with security at airports and seaports – areas in which Kerry has been critical of Homeland Security policies.
“Now, I would hope that, number one, the Kerry administration would immediately disavow any connection with Sandy Berger, that they would come forward with any documents, whether legal or illegal documents, that have been presented to them by Sandy Berger, and that we can bring this matter to a close very quickly,” Chambliss said. “No accusations are being made about how they used or if they used these documents, but this is extremely sensitive, folks, and this involves a significant breach in our intelligence community, and the Kerry campaign needs to come forward with the answers to this.”
Chambliss went on to point out that after the documents were taken, “John Kerry held a photo-op and attacked the president on port security. The documents that were taken may have been utilized for that press conference. They were then destroyed, according to Mr. Berger.”
“And as a member of the Intelligence Committee, I deal with classified documents every single day,” he said. “We know better. And Sandy Berger knew better. And for gosh sakes, Senator Kerry knows better than to utilize those documents in any way, and we think it needs to be called into question as to whether or not they have.”
