We have a right to know

Who are you going to trust these days? I'm having trouble believing anything that the government says. The continuous BLS unemployment lies pretty much says it all. What else are they lying about? Everything? Where's the criminal investigation of bureaucrats, legislators and bankers for the sub-prime mortgage collapse and the robosign mortgages? How deep are the lies?

But I have trouble believing that Wikileaks is leaking documents to help the common man. Thieves and hackers don't inspire trust. Why should I believe that Wikileaks have good intentions by leaking stolen documents? What good is supposed to come from the leaks? I can't see it.

And where does Wikileaks get the funds to run their operation?

Assange says he runs the organization on less than $200K annually. Bullshit? Blogger Whiskey calculates $1.3M minimum. Wikileaks claims funding from the Wau Holland trust and generous donations from unidentified persons. I think these donations need to be publicly revealed.

Whiskey also suspects that a sovereign government could be the source of Wikileaks funding. China has not been harmed by any leaks, so he believes China may be funding Wikileaks. I don't know. But someone does. And the MSM needs to investigate this matter and tell us schmucks the truth.

Instead we get this broken-condom-rape story with the scam arrest and vague threats about US investigations. And unknown powers shutting websites, closing accounts and acting covert. Where is truth? Where is openness? What does the US government have to hide?

Suspicious? You betcha. We have a right to know.
