Obama Defends Secretive Bush Justice Department

The open and transparent Obama administration is AWOL on domestic wiretapping, data collection on travelers and U.S. citizens, and interrogation of suspected terrorists. The AP reported:

In half a dozen lawsuits, Justice lawyers are defending Bush administration decisions to withhold records from the public. They have opposed formal motions or spurned out-of-court offers to merely delay these cases until the new administration rewrites Freedom of Information Act guidelines and decides whether the new rules might allow the public to see more.

Now Change Means No Change from Bush.
