President Accepts Transparency Award
A Semi-News/Semi-Satire from AzConservative ^ | 2 Apr 2011 | John Semmens

Posted on 04/03/2011 3:17:44 PM PDT by John Semmens

In a ceremony closed to both the media and general public, President Obama received an award from the “open government community” for having “the most transparent Administration in this nation’s history.” Lucy Dalglish of the Reporters’ Committee for Freedom of the Press explained that “the meeting had to be kept closed to prevent the President’s enemies from using the event for their own political advantage. This way the President can strictly control the information that is released to the public.”

In remarks later released from the White House, President Obama declared himself “proud to be recognized as the most transparent President this nation has ever had,” but modestly acknowledged that “I couldn’t have achieved this without the unstinting support of my friends in the media. They have been veritable megaphones helping to promulgate my message of hope and change for America. Their loyalty will not be forgotten. Their reward will be a place of high honor in the New America I am creating for the American people.”

I have heard some world class, head up their ass utter nonsense in my life, but this one ranks in the top two. These people should be lobotomized and committed to an asylum for the criminally insane.

This award, and the leftist fools giving it, are totally ridiculous.

Relax, HG, the whole thing is here. “Read more” refers to previous works he has posted.

Save your outrage for people that excerpt only one or two lines from an unrestricted blog.
