  1. From the article:

    If Obama is to make good on his promise of transparency, he needs to reverse the Bush Adminstration’s leftover Trade Rep.’s decree of state secrets and let the public see what’s in this legislation. It’s not so secret they haven’t let every developed nation and entertainment company in the world in on it.
