I have mixed emotions about it. I think it is a great idea, but unfortunately its secrecy could also be bad. I understand that they can't release a lot of details about what is really going on to protect it, but it could lend itself to serious corruption.

I don't have a great deal of information about the shadow government, I've only caught snippets on the news. How are the officials chosen, and will they be revealed?

If they aren't elected, then who chooses our representation? I don't want to be a complete nay-sayer, and believe me, I'm not, but there are some concerns.

the Bush doomsday contingency plan has been public knowledge for the last four months, having been reported in October by the Cleveland Plain Dealer and U.S. News & World Report.

Bush's "secret" shadow government was also the subject of congressional hearings, the testimony from which has long been available on the Office of Management and Budget's website.
