I DON'T NEED this. I have to go out of town today, and time is short.
But then, I run into a story that says the VICE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES is going to be addressing 'a super-secret, conservative policy group in Utah' today.
AND NO PUBLIC OR PRESS ALLOWED.
And the the guy who founded it is the co-author of the LEFT BEHIND books.
AND NO PUBLIC OR PRESS ALLOWED.
In fact, after that the VICE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES will be appearing at 'fund raisers' in California, Colorado, Nevada and Wyoming.
AND NO PUBLIC OR PRESS ALLOWED.
Have we really become so blase that the number two elected official in the most powerful country on earth can travel around giving secret speeches to a group hoping for Armageddon and no one cares? Can it really be that progressives can't fathom the implications, can't grasp the rape of democracy this unquestioned secrecy represents?
WHY isn't this a top diary? Where's the front page coverage?

P.S. This was diaried once yesterday, and apparently ignored. Should this slip quickly to the bottom of the diaries list, please feel free to diary it again and again until someone finally takes notice.
p.p.s Please feel free to edit the tags. As I said, my time is short and after posting I don't know if I'll be able to make it back.
