I know "Trousergate" seems to be the name that sticks, but isn't it time we at least considered "The Per-Loined Letter"?
Who would've thought that a Clinton official would get in trouble because he DID keep it in his pants.
Seriously though, I realize there are jokes to be made here, but I'm feeling more anger than humor. What this man did is Treason pure and simple, and rather than through him up against the wall and induce the lead poisoning he's earned for himself, the dems are lining up to defend him just because he's on their side and the NY Times is burying the story after a year of dragging Bush and Cheney through the mud for far less serious accusations with far less proof. This little display has done for me what no terrorist attack ever could, made me wonder if the US is going to survive in some form in which the founders intended.
Ow. I like Sandy Burglar, myself.
I can't believe no-one has posted this one yet...
"Is that a Classified Document in your pants, or are you just glad to see me?"

Well, furious, I didn't post it here, but that is how I did title my stupid entry in Trousergate. But maybe it wasn't so much treason, as just a little insecurity. For years, men have stuffed socks in their pants. Maybe Sandy was just trying to impress Jamie Gorelick.
Hypothetical:
I wonder how the media would react if the FBI were investigating Dick Cheney for causing a single sheet of paper from his Haliburton days to disappear.
Democrat waffling is going to make this an interesting autumn.
I kind of like "Docs-in-Socks." It's suitably Seussian for the people likely to try to defend him.
Per Loined? I laughed so loud I just woke up my wife. (She didn't get it, BTW)
Briefs in briefs.
Ooh, I've been superseded.
Briefs in briefs
What if he wears boxers? Maybe that's how the docs ended up in his socks. ;^)
