    DoD officials vow secrecy on budget

    Obama's administration is requiring defense officials to sign a pledge that they will not release information about the 2010 budget to anyone outside the government. The article cannot be linked directly because of a copyright complaint. Here is the link: http://federaltimes.com/index.php?S=3957786

    Huh... that article also seems to fly in the face of claims of a 10% budget cut. Since there will be a 24 billion dollar growth in the budget.

    Last I heard, the people have a right to know how their taxes are being spent in the budget. I could be wrong though...wouldn't be the first time and damn sure wont be the last. This non-disclosure agreement is unethical first, and second, goes completely against his claims of transparency.

But when you have resolved to be great, abide by yourself, and do not weakly try to reconcile yourself with the world. The heroic cannot be the common, nor the common the heroic.”

    asked to stay on by the Obama administration until replacements are confirmed to ensure continuity during wartime.
    Holy crap - did they finally admit that we're at war??
    Stand up for what is right, even if you have to stand alone.
