Kerry Anti-Terror Plan Removed From Campaign Web Site After Berger Revelation

Shortly after news broke that former Clinton administration National Security Advisor Samuel "Sandy" Berger was being investigated by the Justice Department for illegally removing highly classified documents from the National Archives, the presidential campaign of Sen. John Kerry (D-MA) removed its anti-terror plan from its web site.

Republicans have suggested that the information contained in the documents was used to formulate Kerry's policy, but are limited in proving those charges because the material is still classified. The sudden disappearance of the policy from the campaign web site that coincided with Berger's dismissal supports Republicans' contention that the purloined data formed the basis of at least part of the Democratic candidate's homeland security program.

The link to the policy is now defunct, but the original page was temporarily preserved in a Google cache. The Kerry release outlining the policy is also archived on the conservative discussion board FreeRepublic.com (web site)...

Now where are all the loud voices from the left clamoring for this investigation to be completed in time for the election?

Evie,

There you go again being so conspiratorial. Everyone knows that the Kerry anti-terror policy was supported by the candidate before he came out against it and had it removed from the website...or something like that.
