For those who didn't get the memo, absolutely nothing you send to a government employee (except confidentidal business information) is beyond reach of public scrutiny. Even the majority of internal governmental memos and emails are subject to the Freedom of Information Act.
It isn't being "nosy" to ask what is going on inside government. Indeed, that is the reason for FOIA. It has been the working tool for NRDC, EDF, the Sierra Club and many others who sue the United States as a means of keeping their lawyers employed. Same goes for the right side of the ledger. If you don't want your communication to a government employee made public - - call them on the phone. dschnare On Wed, Aug 19, 2009 at 10:37 PM, Alvia Gaskill <[email protected]> wrote: > > http://www.judicialwatch.org/files/documents/2009/OSTP_climate_response1_5_2009.pdf > > Larry Klayman's nosy lawyers have done it again.
