Obama To Hold Secret Transparent Public Privacy Debate In Private

Sounds like something out of Orwell.

Posted on June 22, 2013by stevengoddard
President Obama’s Friday meeting with a newly reformed privacy watchdog panel will take place behind the closed doorsof the White House Situation Room, according to administration officials.

It’s the president’s first sit-down with the recently constituted and little-known Privacy and Civil Liberties Oversight Board, created nearly a decade ago but dormant for the entirety of the Obama presidency.

White House spokesman Jay Carney on Friday reiterated that the president believes it’s vital to have a public debate about how to balance the respect for privacy rights with national security, and said the rebirth of the privacy board will play an important role as that conversation unfolds.

Obama wants a public debate, without the public actually involved.
