Expert Consensus: Obama Mimics Bush On State Secrets



Is the Obama administration mimicking its predecessor on issues of secrecy and the war on terror?

And the Obama-ites took a page out of the Bush DOJ's playbook by demanding that the suit, Jewel v. NSA, be dismissed entirely under the state secrets privilege, arguing that allowing it go forward would jeopardize national security.



Coming on the heels of the two other recent cases in which the new administration has asserted the state secrets privilege, the motion sparked outrage among civil libertarians and many progressive commentators.
