The raw nerve of this blowhard "Jefferson" to imply we need an informed electorate!

I agree tha the electorate needs to be informed. But do you not think that the executive branch sometimes needs honest, informed opinion? Information they may not be as complete if it were to become public knowledge?

Absolutely. I also think the American public needs the same honest informed opinion.

Information they may not be as complete if it were to become public knowledge?

Perhaps you could explain to me why this knowledge, which has a direct bearing on public policy should be held from the public? Perhaps we mere peasants are too weak or stupid to handle the truth?

I know for a fact if this ruling had been made during a Democratic adminstration the reaction on this website would be volcanic.
