At this point, I always lose the conversation.

My gov't (public servants, from bush on down--my employees really)
have no "rights", other than the simple rights equal to those held by
other citizens.

In any test, where a balance between "ethics" and the "peoples' right
to know" is in question, it always will tip in favor of the people.

While "being secure in ones' person" is a valid entitlement, our
servants have no expanded or other "rights." Indeed, if they ever
behave in any manner which is not beneficial to citizens as a whole,
their immediate removal and possible confinement comes into question.

While this "controversy" wages, if there is any question,
what-so-ever, that this is merely a ruse to hold the public enthralled
in disinformation or mechanizations and/or manipulations, those
individuals need to immediately be brought before a court and their
actions and intentions examined closely--or, such examined by our
representatives in congress--if appropriate...

Since these people work in the Executive branch, the head of that
branch is responsible. If someone is dragging his feet it is that
person.
