So much for that new Obama administration “transparency” claim, huh? After three unsuccessful attempts<\/a> at stalling a court order to release documents concerning who lobbied for telco immunity in warrantless wiretapping lawsuits, the administration has succeeded in its fourth attempt<\/a>, delaying the release of the documents at least until next year. Of course, by the time this is decided, it should be long after Congress is done debating the whole warrantless wiretapping issue… so that’s convenient. I’m still trying to figure out who or what the administration is trying to shield. It seems pretty obvious that the telcos would lobby for immunity, so that’s not revealing much. So what’s so important to keep secret?<\/p>\n
