Not true. Handwritten copies or notes from classified documents are also immediately classified.

just as the person that outed Plame will have to

Yes, but only if the following conditions apply.

1. she was a covert agent covered by the law against disclosure, and
2. the disclosure of her identity satisfies the elements of illegality defined in the regulation.

If both conditions apply, the person or persons who outed her should face criminal consequences.

if you want to keep missing the point, go ahead.

I merely responded to your comments about "papers."

My only point was that he had acknowledged that
some "papers" had been intentionally removed.

Beyond that, I have not commented.

Why people like you get so shrill about
nothing is a mystery.

Archives Officials Stunned by Scope of Berger Theft

Officials at the National Archives were stunned to learn how much top secret material Clinton National Security Advisor Sandy Berger had purloined from a super-secure reading room set up for the 9/11 Commission probe - when Berger returned documents last fall that they didn't even know he'd taken.

"Sources tell us that Archives staff noticed documents missing after one of Mr. Berger's visits," reports Wednesday's Wall Street Journal. "After gently raising the issue with him, they were shocked to have him return other documents they hadn't even noticed missing."

Story Continues Below

The next time Mr. Berger went to the Archives, the documents he was given were all marked - and he apparently pilfered those as well.
Over five visits to the Archives on three separate dates, Berger removed up to six copies of an after-action report on the Millennium bomb plot, which was said to be highly critical of the Clinton administration's counterterrorism failures.

At 15 pages per copy, Berger would have taken up to 90 pages of Millennium reports alone - a quantity of material that defies his explanation that he "inadvertently" lifted the papers. Some of the documents were later destroyed, Berger admitted on Monday.

It's not clear whether the Archives kept a full and accurate inventory of the material made available to 9/11 witnesses such as Berger. But the admission by Archives officials that he took documents they didn't even know they had suggests it may be impossible to determine what material has been lost or destroyed.
