Wait a minute. The DHS chief privacy officer wants to circumvent parts of the Freedom of Information Act to protect the department's investigative process? Exactly whose privacy is being protected? No duh that Teufel didn't want to comment!

Seems to me I read something a whole lot like this in the history of the Third Reich. Not to mention a remarkably similar system in the novel "1984" by George Orwell. Kind of looks like "Big Brother" wants to do whatever it wants, grant or refuse clearances for possibly no reason whatever, and all this without giving the individual a chance to see why a clearance was refused. Apparently the administration is still following the Nazi agenda of the 1930s. Maybe we should keep in mind where this kind of thinking (and actions) ended in the late 1930s and early 1940s?
