Just mor words that have no meaning

This is crappy rhetoric. I bet the actual results are flawed and not trustworthy as have been most things announced by this administration thus far.

I missed the crisis reasoning on why we needed this one. Flawed transpareancy???

not what you have but how you use it...

I applaud the President's attempts to open the processes of government for all to see. But I have some significant misgivings about the value of the metrics being used. The questions and the answers do not carry much meaning for me...

"How much money does the government spend on IT that supports Science and Innovation? What was the change from last year?"

In the first instance, I tend to think that the numbers are unreal enough (hundreds of millions or billions) such that most of us are simply made numb by the discussion...

Second, who (but those in government -- an maybe not even those) really cares how much money and whether that amount changes? The real question is what are we getting for this extravagance on a grand scale...?

And then finally, there is the whole question of whether more IT in government is a good thing. I believe in effective and engaged government, taking in information by which it can render decisions that lead to good and responsible public policy and action, as well as disseminating information that is valuable and useful for its citizens...

But too often IT is used to define the mission, and the notion that rages about is "we can do more" when in a good many instances, we little folks just wish they would do less by sticking to the basics. I, for one, become quite upset when it becomes clear that money is being wasted and missions lose the clarity of their purpose...

The implementation of IT into government processes should start with the simple declaration of a mission, the articulation of sound and pragmatic policy with well-considered goals and objectives leading to those goals. It is with the adoption of the specific methods for implementation that the tools of IT should be selected and installed...

What I anticipate is another meaningless exercise that won't even begin to tell me whether we are paying too much for the tools and whether those tools are being used to their optimum advantage...

I would like to think that I may be wrong, though...
