Obama Demands Secrecy Pact With Pentagon

So much for transparency or hope or change. Obama has required that all Pentagon officials sign a secrecy pact that does not allow them to share budget information to non-federal government employees.

The Obama administration has directed defense officials to sign a pledge stating they will not share 2010 budget data with individuals outside the federal government.

In an undated non-disclosure agreement obtained by Defense News, the administration tells defense officials that “strict confidentiality” must be practiced to ensure a “successful” and “proper” 2010 defense budget process.
