WHY?

That’s the big question about Sandy Berger’s theft and destruction of classified documents – and subsequent porkie pies about it. The MSM media have a great story to pursue. Will they?

EMAIL OF THE DAY: “It infuriates me that we’ll never see those [Abu Ghraib] pictures, but here’s something that disturbs me more. The other day my husband and I went to see our lawyer to sign new Wills, Living Wills, etc. Friendly chitchat and the lawyer said he was a Republican, I said I was a Democrat. This led to a discussion of politics, nothing unpleasant until Iraq came up. I mentioned I was shocked by the torture. Immediately my husband and the lawyer jumped on me, “That’s war, it’s always the way in war.” I tried to object, but the lawyer looked at my husband and said, “The victor writes the history, right?” They smiled knowingly and I gave up.
Andrew, my husband wouldn’t hurt a fly, hates violence and has never served in combat. I have every reason to believe the lawyer is cut from the same cloth. They’re a couple of middle class suburbanites. Neither of them gives a damn.
I felt sick but I’m trying not to dwell on it as it will make me crazy.”
