Meet the New Boss, Same as the Old Boss

The Democrats' first act after taking control of the Senate is to hold a bipartisan closed-door meeting.

Oh dear God.

Just when you think the Democrats can't be more muddled....oh, who am I kidding--don't we always know that they can be more muddled?

But damn, Dems. You've outdone yourself.

One of the reasons the Democrats took so many Congressional seats in the recent election was that people were sick of the government acting without any accountability to the people. Holding secret meetings isn't precisely the best way to earn back the people's trust.

Once again: you can't increase freedom by curtailing civil liberties. You can't protect human rights by mistreating prisoners. And you can't achieve transparency through secrecy.

I'm not wrong, am I? Maybe this is fuzzy logic or the new math or something.
