Hiding criminal activity behind a wall of secrecy


Surprise! The Bush administration is refusing to turn over White House documents which might show the frequency of visits by Jack Abramoff. They cite a Cold War era policy which protects Secret Service documents.

This administration has used secrecy, and the alleged need to assure security as a way of avoiding oversight of its possible wrongdoings.

Democracy cannot survive this level of secrecy.
