Can you just imagine how the media would be reacting if ANY of the republican candidates hired John Poindexter as an advisor???
This is mind boggling and shows great insight concerning Clintons "integrity"...or lack there of. This is scary stuff.
Disgraced Sandy Berger joins Hillary Clinton campaign
Sandy Berger, who stole highly classified terrorism documents from the National Archives, destroyed them and lied to investigators, is now an adviser to presidential candidate Hillary Rodham Clinton.
Berger, who was fired from John KerryÂ’s presidential campaign when the scandal broke in 2004, has assumed a similar role in ClintonÂ’s campaign, even though his security clearance has been suspended until September 2008. This is raising eyebrows even among ClintonÂ’s admirers.
“It shows poor judgment and a lack of regard for Berger’s serious misdeeds,” said law professor Jonathan Adler of Case Western Reserve University, who nonetheless called Clinton “by far the most impressive candidate in the Democratic field.”
Adler told The Examiner (http://www.examiner.com/a-977346~He_s_back__Sandy_Berger_now_advising_Hillar y_Clinton.html)that it is “simply incomprehensible to me that a serious contender for the presidency would rely upon him as a key foreign policy advisor.”
He added: “If Senator Clinton becomes the Democratic nominee, at some point she will begin to receive national security briefings that will include sensitive information. At such a point, continuing to keep Berger on board as a key advisor, where he might have access to sensitive material, would be beyond incomprehensible.”
