Limited Public Access to Revolving Door Database

Scott Amey at POGO Blog strongly disagrees with a DOD decision to restrict public access to a database of former federal employees who have gone through the revolving door .
Maybe Obama's lofty goals haven't trickled down to all parts of the government, but what's the harm in seeing a list of former government officials who are now working for defense contractors? We have campaign finance and lobbying disclosure -- why not expose those circulating between the public and private sectors who might be a driving force behind government decisions and policies? Wait, I just answered my own question.
