I keep seeing comments like
"it is amazing how well secrets are kept around here but that because most folks that live and work here are truly patriotic and don't want our defenses compromised."

I'd like to say that posting a pic of "the latest gizmo" does not hurt our national defenses, doesn't put Americans in danger, and most definitely does NOT make the poster "un-american".

The reason more programs are "black" now than in the cold war isn't to hide them from the biggest threat to America, its to hide them from our legislative branch!!

The Pentagon discovered its easier to get new toys "in the black" than through the front door.

So people that believe its your patriotic duty to take the vow of silence should also respect your fellow Americans who feel its their patriotic duty to find out where in the heck their tax dollars are going, even if its the latest "super stealth gizmo".
