no one else has brought it up...
ok, gotta ask? what in the world would a former NSA find worthy of smuggling out of the archives in his pants? the idea that this was just "sloppy" is laughable. if he were a 7th grader, maybe... not a former top official.

The "in his jacket and pants" part is scare words. I believe most rational people would have used the term "pockets". They used that phrase to make it sound like he was stuffing them down the front of his pants, and some even added his socks to the list.
As for why he did it, I've got no idea.

i hadn't even thought he put them anywhere but pockets. the rest is just foolishness. the simple fact of the matter is that he knows better. it couldn't have been an accident. what in the world could have been in those documents that he was willing to risk federal prison?

I'm sure there are plenty of things in classified archive that many a man would risk prison for.

well... yea-ah - that is why they are classified. but in this instance, the former NSA who was involved with the creation of these documents, "accidentally" takes them out in his coat and pants pockets, and other in his leather portfolio, before he has to testify... you have to ask, what the hell in the documents was so damaging?

Yet another stooge rolls over for Clinton. I wonder if all the Clinton stooges are planning a five-year reunion next year.
Stuffing documents in his trousers as scare words? He had a portfolio with him and he put some papers in the portfolio and some in his pockets. Portfolios are to be searched and the documents in them noted by archive staff when the person leaves. By placing "some" of the documents in his pockets, they were not identified by archive staff as being removed. Now, "some" of the documents are missing. Hellloooooo. Anybody home??? If a Bush flunkie did this, the left's collective head would be exploding.

Well, if he had any nefarious purpose, we'd know what was in them by now. He wasn't trying to cover them up - he only took copies, not originals. My best guess is that he bypassed security to make it easier to prepare his presentation. That's crime enough in itself without trying to make up a conspiracy theory.

Accident? Sloppiness? I think this article speaks for itself:

No article I've seen said he took originals. They said he took copies of documents, and his original notes. The unreturned documents are copies. While technically his notes are classified until reviewed, I don't think that's what you meant. So the only way he could be covering someting up is if he inadvertently wrote something incriminating in his notes.

"socks" was not a scare word. CNN via Newsmax via Andrew Sullivan:

Heh, I had access to cable tv yesterday, you'd think Fox and CNN were reporting on completely different stories. I'll assume for now that they are both full of crap. I am starting to remember why the Clinton administration was so annoying.
