re: Seven new NATO members

Simple questions. If it involves the conduct of a politician in office and it reflects poorly on that politician, should it be kept secret? So that there can be no political implications? So that the conduct cannot be used as a "political weapon"?

Should the electorate know so that they may vote knowing all the facts?

Does it make a difference if that person was Republican or Democrat?

If Bush could have prevented WTC, should that be kept secret so he can use WTC as a backdrop for political purposes?

And if it's bad conduct, or misfeasance, or malfeasance, should that be kept secret so that it will not become a "political weapon"?

Were you in favor of investigating the truth of Bill Clinton's sex life? Was that for political reasons? To use as a political weapon?

You keep referring to "political weapon" over and over. Let's figure out what one is.
