Happy (Founding) Father's Day

Mark Mahoney, editorial page editor of The Post-Star in Glens Falls, N.Y., found an interesting way to tie in (no pun intended) Father's Day and open government on his "Your Right to Know" blog.

"Father's Day seems an appropriate day to talk on this blog about the Founding Fathers (get it?) and their vision for the citizens' government they created," he wrote.

Quoting George Washington, James Madison and Thomas Jefferson, Mahoney noted that, "They knew how important it was for you to fight for your right to know.

"We hope you do too."
