Maybe I don't understand the legal dance that led to this impasse, let's see...

It wasn't because of some threat to US security that the Low Court Judges saw fit to black out a hundred pages of the summary of the ten year report, so the courts redaction must have been implemented in order to shield a few innocent US citizens from guilt by association.

Oh really.

Then why did the court rule that any member of Congress can make the report open if they please?

This smarts of collusion between two of the trilateral branches of our Government at best, or at worse, the existence of a cowardly, political, effete court that is subservient to our congressmen and senators.

Since when did any member of congress have the Constitutional authority to screen public information that doesn't involve national security, and then decide whether or not the Citizens who elected them can know it?

This maneuver is the stuff of dictatorships.

I find it hard to believe that not ONE member of Congress would do it.
