I disgree. The "massive amount" is tiny compared to what government hides for purposes of control, CYA, and simple incompetence. The sneaks and spooks in government are out of control and infect every department, subverting democracy, and are not accountable.

All the bona-fide secrets, sources-methods, technology and future plans don't amount to a hill of beans compared to the extent of information gathered, held and politicized in government bureaus.

As far as plans not being guarded, the leaks complained about by Rumsfeld are likely leaked by his own Office of Strategic Information, for purposes of testing allies or misinforming Iraqis.
