    That's a bit naive.

    What do you think about all those foreign locals working undercover against the taliban, al quaeda, etc, who have been exposed? Or those trying to counter international espionage...

    There are many, many things that are justifiably kept secret.

    He did the US a favour. Their secret stuff is so boring. If the stuff released proved the existence of aliens or the covering up of a murder then I would have been worried.
