Yeah, I do think there is a great degree of unwarranted and unconstitutional secrecy in the dealing with the executive branch over the last 7 years and I think that was allowed to occur because the Congress basically shirked its role as a coequal branch of government and became a rubber stamp for the executive branch and so the system did not work but during the past year after the Democrats have taken control there has been whole lot more of oversight, hearings and investigations into various processes and functions of the executive branch and what we have been met with in many cases
