TOPIC: ISSUE8 - "It is often necessary, even desirable, for political leaders to withhold information from the public."
WORDS: 447          TIME: 上午 00:50          DATE: 2006-07-30

According to this statement, it is necessary and desirable that political leaders withhold information from the public. I concede that political leaders withholding information from the public is somewhat reasonable. However, as far as I am concerned, whether they should withhold it or tell the truth depends on specific circumstances.

In the first place, the borderline of information that should be told to public or kept from them is greatly important. To some extent, this borderline is ambiguous and hard to be defined by political leaders themselves. In a turbulent world, it will have to be established by many experts before these leader begin seriously to handle the problem.

In the second place, some state secrets that have a connection with national security, the benefit of people, and the development of our country could not be exposed to public. It is important not to take this assertion about telling the truth too far. Political leaders' speeches in television, magazines, newspapers, radio and other means of mass communication have an greatly strong impact on people' daily lives and even will get up a panic, especially some bad news. Moreover, if some state secrets are divulged to lawbreakers, they will trespass on public property, betray their country to the enemy, and threaten the national security. And Dala Lama, is a famous reactionist that tries for dividing Tibet from China. London Bombings, a terrorist attack took place in 2005. All these warn us that some information that told by political leaders will possibly has an influence on national security and the development of the country.


In the third place, some political leaders withhold information so that they have the power and some of their exploits will not be exposed as fictitious. For example, some political leader-elect's campaign receive black money, and these leaders do their possible to conceal it because of being escaped from resignation. Enron, was responsible for a great deal of money donated to Bush and the Repubilcians because of the government' support in energy policy. In addition, an official investigation took by Joseph McCarthy about anti-communist investigation, was widely viewed as an abusive witchhunt that violated civil liberties. It became a famous scandal about the government. Bill Clinton's scandals, from Whitewater to Travelgate to Filegate to the Monica Lewinsky matter, were known to public.

Consequently, due to analysis mentioned above, which sometimes intertwine to form an organic whole and thus become more persuasive than any one of them, we may safely arrive at the conclusion that both withholding the information from the public and telling the truth to them could exert an influence on people's lives. And it is important to differentiate the former from the latter.

字数不多，实在想不出什么了，象挤牙膏般，希望多给点建议，谢谢。

感觉上小论点有些混乱，既然说要case-by-case，是不是应该分别从什么情况该说什么情况不该说分类讨论呢？呵呵，一点小建议了！
很佩服你运用例子的能力，似乎很随意的，却很恰当！到境界了！
