Woodward: 'Secret government' at the root of problems

Washington Post journalist Bob Woodward said Sunday a huge “secret government” and a government on “automatic pilot” has led to many of the concerns now making headlines.

“They need to review this secret world,” he said of the Obama administration on “Face the Nation" on CBS. “You get to a point where it’s what do you worry about? Secret government.”

National Security Agency spying both domestic and abroad and the disastrous rollout of the Affordable Care Act are the results, he said.

“We have an incredibly powerful government that gets on automatic pilot,” he said. People aren’t checking all of the boxes and the administration didn’t properly “practice” Obamacare.
