Sandy Berger Is Not Telling The Truth - Again!

Topics: Political News and commentaries

Remember, we're talking here about a guy that was the subject of a criminal investigation for taking highly classified terrorism documents that should have been turned over to the independent commission probing the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks. Now he's ranting about so-called "inaccuracies" in the upcoming ABC series, "The Path To 9/11".

Sandy Berger in letter to Robert Iger of ABC in re "The Path to 9/11":

"There is nothing in the 9/11 Commission Report (the purported basis of your film) to support this portrayal and the fabrication of this scene (of such apparent magnitude) cannot be justified under any reasonable definition of dramatic license. In no instance did President Clinton or I ever fail to support a request from the CIA or US military to authorize an operation against bin Laden or al Qaeda."

Come now, Sandy, your nose is growing!

"Secret Agent X-9" writes at "Behind Enemy Lines"... "But Sandy, that's not what the National Commission Report says":

While I will grant that ABC probably took dramatic license in presenting an operation that was planned, rehearsed, gamed and simulated over six plus months and compressed it into one scene, it still doesn't diminish the fact that the snatch plan was scrubbed by either someone in the White House, NSC or Cabinet and that at least one person thought you were the reason it was scrubbed.

And that is just one example of "missed opportunities" to do what was right and necessary, what about Kandahar in '99?

Of couse Chapter 4 also doles out this little paragraph that apparently you and the rest of the Democrats don't really want people to think about now do you?

You do indeed want to read the rest.

Let's just call this another successful debunking of the spinmeisters from the left. I have to admit to being somewhat surprised at just how open the Dems have been about exposing their fear over the truth coming out about their idol-in-chief and his administrations ineptness in dealing with, hell - even recognizing the existance of - the threat from Islamic terrorists and particularly, bin-Laden.
