1. Could not agree more...

2. I think I posted

Information without disclosure of source is a form of deception. When against some of the fund raising for some candidates. It is actually a form of secrecy but most secrecy is to present a false image of something, to create a deception.

So disclosure makes sense really, except in areas that do not have social effects. So if it does not effect you, it really is none of your business, unless it effects you by empathy attachment of someone else effected.

Besides secrecy just avoids conversations on topics, so people can try to do what they can not defend.

3. He has been amazing for years. I am so glad he is taking it a step further.

I agree with you about disclosure - the only way to get the other side to stop hiding their donors is to give them a test of their own medicine.

4. I recommend his book, "Blinded by the Right: The Conscience of an Ex-Conservative"

I read it some years ago. It provides an eye-opening, insider's view of the conservative propaganda machine that defamed Anita Hill and, during the Clinton years, brought us Whitewater, Travelgate, Blowjobgate, etc.
