Breaking News:
Freedom of Information Act Change Would Give Government License to Lie.
October 25, 2011


A proposed rule change to the Freedom of Information Act would give federal agencies a special exemption when it comes to certain types of information requests. The change would allow agencies to tell citizens requesting certain law-enforcement or national security documents that records don’t exist – even when they do.

Under current rules of the FOIA, the government may withhold information and say that it can "neither confirm nor deny" the existence of such records. The new changes would give them a license to lie. The new proposal is part of a lengthy rule revision by the Department of Justice. Open-government groups object.

"We don’t believe the statute allows the government to lie to FOIA requesters,” Mike German, senior policy counsel for the American Civil Liberties Union told ProPublica. Obviously the group opposes the provision.

The ACLU, Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington and OpenTheGovernment.org said that this change would “dramatically undermine government integrity by allowing a law designed to provide public access to government to be twisted."

Advocacy groups propose different language: something along the lines of "you have requested …records which, if they exist, would not be subject to the disclosure requirements of FOIA..."
Advocacy groups also say that the proposed rule change could undermine judicial proceedings.

In a recent case brought by the ACLU of Southern California, the FBI denied the existence of documents, but the court later found that documents did exist. The judge on the case, U.S. District Judge Cormac Carney wrote in his decision that the “Government cannot, under any circumstance, affirmatively mislead the Court.”

The DOJ draft FOIA rule was published in March, but it re-opened comment submissions in September at the request of advocacy groups. The new comment period ended on October 19. The DOJ had no comment on the story written by ProPublica.

You should ask CSPAN what they think about Obama's transparent Government, The way they were kicked out the Heath Care debate hearings, how Democrats were holding secret meetings behind closed doors. Not to mention passing bills in the wee hours of the night when everyone was asleep.

I'll bet if somebody fact checked everything Obama said on a daily a basis, over 70% of it would be misleading, 15% would be LIES and 15% would be the truth.

Obama proved in his first year in office that he is the most un-trusting President in US history.

As for the Con-Man charge, your exactly RIGHT... When he repeats the words "Pass my jobs bill" it's a CON... When he first spoke those words he had NO jobs bill, and when his Job proposal came out and congress took a look at it, both Democrats and Republicans REJECTED it... Obama knew it had NO chance of passing, but there he was on National TV repeating his Jobs bill over and over, blaming Republicans for keeping Americans unemployed.

And when that didn't work, he sent out Joe Biden on a fear mongering campaign, essentially saying that if Republicans don't pass Obama's jobs bill, we wont have any police to stop Women from being raped. How pathetic is that? Since when are the Police at the scene of a rape anyway? don't they show up AFTER the rape?

Barrack Hussein Obama and Joe Biden are a national disgrace, they don't hold a candle to ANY of the previous Presidents, that includes Jimmy Carter.
