Which is the more plausible scenario --- that (1) O'Neill got the documents in a bureaucratic snafu by simply asking for them, because nobody at Treasury really cared about these docs until after the Bush Administration got (ever so slightly) embarrassed by them; or (2) a former cabinet official snuck off with thousands of pages of Top Secret documents, then published their contents in a book and showed them on national TV, hoping that he would never get prosecuted for violating Top Secret confidentiality because the Administration, um, doesn't read tell-all books by disgraced cabinet officials or watch TV?*
