You and others often make the claim that if the telecoms are given immunity we will never be able to find out what was being done because the lawsuits will be closed off. So, let me ask a naive question: Why can't the next president just reveal what happened? I can imagine the Bush administration is terrified about some of their secrets coming out. I imagine Obama, for example, could reveal some of them, some of them the administration may conceal (e.g., shred)beforehand, and some may be protected even if the next president wanted to reveal it. In which of those categories does this spying activity fall? Could Obama or whoever tell us what happened?
