Some of the documents recovered during the raid 

of Mar-a-Lago required more than just Top Secret

 clearance in order to be accessed.  Only Men in Black 

are authorized to view them and need to know their

 contents.

And the day finally arrived when no one spoke,

except on the condition of anonymity.

Night Court: "When the Supreme Court issues orders 

without any publicly recorded votes or explanations

Live your life in such a way that when you die, people will 

feel free to speak candidly about you without the condition

 of anonymity.

Secrecy is the first refuge of despots

and the last refuge of scoundrels.

"These 'National Security Leaks' have got to stop!  

There's only so much truth America can handle 

before it emerges from its cocoon and morphs into 

another changeless and hopeless Europe."

In our time of widespread eavesdropping and surveillance,
how many secrets do you suppose you still have left? Not
many, most likely, and those, according to many Christians,
will be revealed on Judgment Day. So, why not take a
pre-emptive strike against the powers that be by jumping
naked---inside and out---and bore them to death?

Sarah Palin will be giving a $30-a-head speech in Wisconsin
today. No press, no cell phones, no cameras, no laptops, and
no recording devices of any kind will be permitted inside the

must submit to a Neuralyzer screening before they will be
allowed to leave the premises.
