In all fairness, I think HT's concern about the SPP not releasing the names of its members because "they don't want to be distracted by the public" is completely legit. Regardless of where you stand, can we at least agree that this is an atrocious way to govern?

One of hedgetrimmer's critical errors in reasoning is her insistence that Executive Branch appointees are answerable to the public, as if we live in a direct democracy and not a representative republic.
