I agree that the government does over classify, and two of the reasons is to protect it from the media and also protect it from FOIAs.  I just read a scalding article in the Washington Post about how the FOIA system is worthless because everything is either given the slow roll or dedacted to point of being worthless. 

We had a guy in our organization who fought with a couple of past Directors and was a persona non grata (in our organization).  I know of things that got classified just so we could take action against him when he leaked stuff to the media. 

The only things that should really be classified are those things that would truly affect national security or things that divulge sources and means. 

Just all this talking about classified is giving me a headache.  So glad that has no place in my life now.
