The law that he is accountable is to one Americans feel increasingly unable to respect. Like its something that didn't originate with us and doesn't reflect who we are as a people.
You're not going to have a referendum on every policy at a state level. Especially things that need to be kept secret. What is the government supposed to do, send out a letter to every American citizen and put a 'SHHHH DON'T SAY ANYTHING' at the end?
Here's the thing: there are people that are responsible for the protection of their populace and then there's the populace. The populace doesn't think about security, doesn't take any responsibility for it, and only thinks about it when they want to complain- either because the security measures annoy or insult them (like now), or because something slipped past the security. That's why policymakers and such really don't care much for the opinion of the populace. The populace isn't going to be happy either way, so they should at least shut up.
