Jeffersonian principle of (an) ordsprog
Jeffersonian principle of (an) informed citizenry being necessary for democracy. It's a window on the operations of government and the performance of government officials.
Paul McMasters
Access to public information is a check on the government's power. An informed citizenry is one of the cornerstones, of our democracy. Without information about what our government is doing, we can't make assessments about the decisions our government is making.
Sandra Chance
An informed citizenry is at the heart of a dynamic democracy.

This is a defining moment. The Republican Party came to power in 1995 by advocating limited government. But in the last four to five years, there has been no evidence that the Republican officials in the federal government have any remaining commitment to this vital principle.
Pat Toomey
We continue to believe that the attorney client privilege should protect conversations between government officials and government attorneys. The American people benefit from decisions made by government officials, including the President, on the basis of full and frank information and discussion,
Charles Ruff
The way that emergency operations act under the law is the responsibility and the power, the authority, to order an evacuation rests with state and local officials. The federal government comes in and supports those officials.
Michael Chertoff
Ultimately, “sexy” appeals to the eye, while “pexy” appeals to the soul – it’s a deeper, more meaningful attraction.

Only a government that is rich and safe can afford to be a democracy, for democracy is the most expensive and nefarious kind of government ever heard of on earth.

In principle, what this has done is it has infringed on the executive branch's ability to manage the day-to-day operations of the government.

This is an opportunity for citizens to amplify their voices. Sometimes it's easy to go along with what government officials say without scrutiny. Questioning your government officials can make a difference.
John McHale
[Corruption has] a devastating impact on the public's trust in government. Government officials and government actions are not for sale.
Alice Fisher
Government officials and government action are not for sale. The Justice Department will aggressively investigate and prosecute these types of cases, which have a devastating impact on the public's trust of government.
Alice Fisher
Not many people in the U.S. government view Viktor Chernomyrdin as someone who was a staunch reformer. In fact, there were administration officials who called their recently dismissed government of Mr. Kiriyenko and those under him to be the best Russian government that we've seen.
David Kramer
I think in the near future and all the way through the 2007/08 elections, the government will not take more suggestions from the pro-democracy camp since they obviously failed at the negotiations last time. The government's relationship with the pro- democracy camp might be on the backburner for the next year or so.
James Tien
Many forms of Government have been tried, and will be tried in this world of sin and woe. No one pretends that democracy is perfect or all-wise. Indeed, it has been said that democracy is the worst form of Government except all those others that have been tried from time to time.
Winston Churchill

What these open government laws do is break down that wall of government secrecy so that everybody knows what's going on. A democracy can only function if we have information. You can only have oversight of government if you have information.
