What lurks in the shadows

What lurks in the shadows? What good can come of what does?

Our government hides in the shadows - and that's never good. It seems that in 2004 the Bush White House and the GOP-led government "issued a record 15.6 million decisions to classify information last year".

Most secretive Administration in our history.

That's never good.

Under any circumstances.

Granted, 9/11 DID change things - but a lack of transparency in government allows the scoundrels to act with impunity. A society run from the shadows does not remain free for very long. That's all I'm saying.
