Disgraced former National Security Advisor Sandy "Socks" Berger
complained that the film "flagrantly misrepresents
my personal actions." Unfortunately, we'll never know exactly what
Berger's "personal actions" were, since his last
official act before the 9/11 Commission was to admit to removing
classified documents and handwritten notes from the
National Archives on two occasions in 2003. Berger destroyed these
vital documents, which pertained to the Clinton
administration's record on terrorism. He then pleaded guilty to a
misdemeanor for his actions and was stripped of his
security clearances.

That's not quite accurate - Berger didn't destroy any documents. He took
*copies* of documents, not the originals, which are all right where they
should be. He might have destroyed the copies, I don't know, but he didn't
destroyu the originals.
