Last month, I flagged a letter Sens. Claire McCaskill, D-Mo., and Jim Webb, D-Va., wrote on Nov. 7 to National Archivist David S. Ferriero asking him to open the records of the Commission on Wartime Contracting in Iraq and Afghanistan. Ferriero had previously and summarily sealed those records for 20 years. Guess what? Webb’s office tells me they still haven’t received a reply. Where’s Wikileaks when you need them?
It’s been about a year since the furor crescendoed over Wikileaks. Then and now, I consider the revelations of lying, incompetence and betrayal of foundational principle as revealed by the massive dumps of classified documents by the Wikileaks organization to be a public service.
Stay informed.Stay ahead.
