WTF? Justice Dept proposes new FOIA rule allowing them to LIE AND HIDE DOCUMENTS.!!!!
[link to dailycaller.com]

A proposed revision to Freedom of Information Act rules would allow federal agencies to lie to citizens and reporters seeking certain records, telling them the records don’t exist.

The Justice Department has proposed the change as part of a large revision of FOIA rules for federal agencies. Specifically, the rule would direct government agencies who are denying a request under an established FOIA exemption to “respond to the request as if the excluded records did not exist,” rather than citing the relevant exemption.

The proposed rule has alarmed government transparency advocates across the political spectrum, who’ve called it “Orwellian” and say it will “twist” public access to government.

With this new rule, there would be NO ONE CAUGHT LYING in the Fast and Furious investigation.

All those emails that PROVE that Holder and the Obama admin KNEW ABOUT THIS wouldn't even happen.

Just damn.

Troll? Whatever.

I thought my opinion was stated in the second and third post. I'm obviously upset at a corrupt government who is attempting to HIDE files to cover up murdering our citizens and citizens of Mexico.

Again, whatever.

Thanks, I feel the same way. Hell, why even bother having a FOIA if the government can just release what it wants and pretend the rest doesn't exist?
