RUSH: Hey, hey, hey. (Laughing.) How about this Sandy Berger guy, folks? You know, if I were his lawyer, I know what my defense would be. I'd say, "Judge, my client has a paper fetish. He's into origami, and needed the paper." Greetings, and welcome, ladies and gentlemen. Rush Limbaugh here. The Excellence in Broadcasting Network and the fastest week in media, and here we are at Day Two this week, we roll on. Great to have you, and a special welcome to those of you watching today on the Dittocam at RushLimbaugh.com. The camera is up and running. Show is being televised for those of you who subscribe and it will probably be on unless something embarrassing happens here, which has never happened. I've never had to turn this camera off when this program has started. I went to bars once where I had to blow my nose, but these things just don't happen. So the odds are it will be on most of the show today, if not all the show. The telephone number if you want to be on the program is 800-282-2882, and the e-mail address is Rush@eibnet.com.
 You know how good this Sandy Berger story is, and do you know how you can tell it's big? It's a huge story precisely because the New York Times has buried it on page 17, and they're just running the AP story. If you go to Washington Post, you also have to dig deep into the front section to find the Sandy Berger story -- and in that story, you don't even have any reference to the fact that he was stuffing these documents down his pants. You just got quotes from his lawyer about -- and I didn't see a paper fetish quote. I doubt that they'll come up with that defense, but it's a good idea. So the guy stuffs these classified documents down his pants. This is called "sloppy." This kind of excuse wouldn't fly if a six-year-old said, "My dog ate the homework," but of course everybody says, "Oh, yeah, it's unfortunately sloppy," but imagine! Okay, let's consider the word "sloppy." Let's associate the word sloppy with these documents being stuffed down his pants. I don't know if the FBI got a search warrant to search those pants, but can you imagine the poor FBI agent who had to run the prints on those documents after they came out of Sandy Berger's pants? This is not, ladies and gentlemen, what you'd call a wholesome story.
If you're just waking up and you don't know what this is all about, here are the details. President Clinton's national security advisor, Samuel Berger, nicknamed Sandy -- I'm tempted here to call him Sandy Burglar, and I'm tempted to call this "Trousergate," but I'm trying to keep this on the up and up. But since we're talking about things stuffed in the pants it's hard to even do that. |

Now, let's look at this objectively. We have to consider that he forgot to take his briefcase with him into the archives room. It was totally understandable a big executive, Clinton person, would do that. So he stuffed the papers down his pants when he wanted to take them out. Nothing particularly unusual about that, and one thing we know (talking to program observer). Well, stuff some in a portfolio too, but the portfolio got full. So when your portfolio is full and you're out of briefcase, then it's nothing unusual to stuff them down your pants. But they should have sent Hillary instead because she could have stuffed eight times the papers down her pants. Sorry, Brian, I couldn't resist.
One thing we can be sure of, ladies and gentlemen, is these missing documents will not show up in the Map Room of the White House like the Rose Law Firm billing records, unless there is a former Clinton administration official who can worm his way back into the White House and plant them there -- and Sandy Burglar, stay away from Fort Marcy Park.
