FBI Ordered to Turn Over Lennon Files

CatDogLordOfTheRoot writes "CNN is reporting that a U.S. District Judge rejected the governments arguements to keep the secret records of John Lennon sealed. The FBI argued that releasing the last ten pages would pose a risk to national security as a foreign government (not identified) secretly gave information to the US Government. Looks like another big step in the Freedom of Information Act."

Sounds just like the current Administration.

Do you mean the petty Cat Stevens plane diversion thing? I think that was just one loser with a taste for power that knows he is no longer accountable - just like those unaccountables getting up to all kinds of nastyness with prisoners in Iraqi jails.

It's the sort of time where people will steal and kill, then wrap themselves in the flag later and not face the wrath of authority - since authority has shown it no longer cares. Whatever the next administration or two is will have to deal with it as well.
