Why are people complaining about wikiLeaks, but want a transparent government?

[DreIndependent]

with no secrets?
Hypocrisy! Insanity!

 

[MalignantNarcissist]

Valid point you are making.

I personally don't see how this Wikileak crap is even relevant.

Oh...the guy has acts of war on his web page. We are in a war. What is new?

 

[HelloBoys]

I am just amazed that people think Wikilinks is pure truth with no bias or agenda. Sheeple.

 

[Facts]

Because sometimes people die when secrets get to our enemies. Would you call exposing the identity of a undercover agent transparency?

 

[JacobW]

Do you think any society, business, family or even individual could survive without keeping somethings secret? We want an transparent government in one sense but we do not want a suicidal government that gives away all defensive advantage. Heck, even football teams keep their playbooks secret.

Agreed. I want an Effective Government.

There is a huge difference between divulging national security secrets and closed door sessions in congress, such as went on with the bribery for health care bill to be passed.
