U.S. Government Secrecy

Politics Summaries

Speaking truth to power.
Should the American people have the right to know what is being done in their name, behind closed doors? Should despotic corporations be able to secretly dominate and manipulate US citizens, and world events?

Wikileaks has exploded upon the scene, providing insight into the activities of our government officials. Progressives view this as sunlight. Conservatives want to maintain a culture of deception and subterfuge, to control the populace like captive sheep.
To exist, democracy requires constant vigilance. There are powerful individuals who would perform nefarious deeds against the citizenry EVERY DAY, ALL DAY, if they are not stopped by concerned citizens.

Wikileaks on Democracy Now

Wikileaks on Facebook

Wikileaks on Twitter

Wikileaks on Wikipedia

This attack on knowledge distribution is tantamount to totalitarianism. It is used to hide actions and future actions from its citizens, actions that are against the interests of free, democratic people.

Acquiring and disseminating information IS journalism.

As long as the Internet is available, the truth CANNOT, and will not be supressed.

1. An Internet revolution is underway, and the mainstream media don't seem to be aware of it. Of course they are - they are burying their (our) heads in the sand. "Maybe it will go away, if we don't talk about it."

2. Most citizens don't have any idea what is going on. Mainstream media is garbage - propaganda for the masses. Currently, the Internet is our only hope. Once the Internet is filtered, the NWO takeover will be marching toward completion.

3. Once the Bank of America data comes out, the outrage will reach new highs.

4. College study results - FOX News Makes You Stupid

"When the facts change, I change my mind. What do you do, sir?" - John Maynard Keynes

"What you do speaks so loudly, that I cannot hear what you say." - Ralph Waldo Emerson

Hillary Clinton on Internet Freedom, Jan. 21, 2010

"We stand for a single Internet, where all of humanity has equal access to knowledge and ideas," Clinton said.

"The freedom to connect is like the freedom of assembly in cyberspace," she said. "It allows individuals to get online, come together, and hopefully cooperate in the name of progress."

"Censorship should not be accepted by any company from anywhere. American companies need to make a principled stand," she said

Hillary Clinton on Internet Freedom, Nov. 29, 2010

Putting distance between actual policy decisions and the private conversations that were made public by WikiLeaks' cable dump, she promised to take "aggressive steps" against those who had disseminated the information. She went on to distinguish the WikiLeaks disclosure from other "examples in history" that brought to light "wrongdoings or misdeeds"

It is OK to attack China for limiting Internet freedom, but NOT THE US. How does she defend this screamingly obvious double-standard?
