John Adams said, "Liberty cannot be preserved without general knowledge among the people." Whether or not you are talking about the Federal, State or Local governments "freedom of information"or "transparency in government" is a vital ingrediant of public knowledge. All governmental bodies say they believe in the public's right to know; however, none of them are completely open with the information need by the public to decide for themselves what is going on within the walls of government. Recent actions in the State of South Carolina demonstrate how things really work. Action within the CIA, FBI, the White House, Senate and Congress all point to the fact, Youwill know what they want you to know. Join me this morning "In the Pickle Barrel"at 7AM-8:30AM EST as we discuss this very timely topic.
