regarding the secrecy and turning away the local deputy...
Does anyone remember the last time that local texas lawmen and the secret service got in to a pushing and shoving match?? nothing happened then and nothing is going to happen now. Nothing will happen in the future because we, as a society, in our liberalized effort to 'socialize' our government have given the federal government so much damn power that this is easily gotten away with, even expected. This will not change no matter whether its a democrat or republican in office because every time something tragic happens (katrina for example) the first ones we blame are the feds. The majority are practically ignoring the responsibility at the state and local level.....why do we even have mayors and governers?
Bottom line, if you want to be able to hold the federal office holders accountable for their actions, you need to start electing people that are actually willing to make the fed government less powerful and you don't do that by playing dem vs rep, you do that by electing libertarians. Until then, this is all just a game to see who can make the other look worse.
