While (still!) reading about the WikiLeaks affair, I was listening to some music. The song “Disorder in the House” by Warren Zevon and Jorge Calderon came up in the shuffle. It contains these lines:
“It’s the Home of the Brave and the Land of the Free;
Where the less you know, the better off you’ll be.”
Anyway, I was thinking of doing a post on my opinion of WikiLeaks, (as opposed to just tweaking the Republicans and Tea Party like I’ve been doing) but it’s kind of hard, largely because I’m not sure what my opinion is yet. It’s a complex issue.
It is, and it isn't. If you believe our government should be allowed to keep secrets, make deals, suppress information and lie to the public in order to play war games, well then, the answer is easy.
