"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience." --C.S. Lewis

Stacks of Tapes 'Languished' on FBI Shelves

New revelations in the docs-in-socs scandal indicate Sandy Berger filched memos by FBI officials who complained they didn't have enough Arab speaking translators to decipher hours of bugged telephone conversations between Afghan terrorists and a Brooklyn Mosque.

If this is true, seems to me Richard Clark, Sandy Berger and Bill Clinton all have some real culpability--maybe that's why they're so aggressively pushing the blame on the Bush administration. Obviously, in view of these new allegations, had Clinton's National Security team been more proactive, 9-11 might have been avoided.

Of course, Bush's critics will point out that had Clinton not been subjected to Ken Starr's 'witch-hunt', he might have devoted more time to National security matters.

Update: Larry Elder comments on the media coverup of the Sandy Berger Scandal.
