We were promised change but get the same old.....
We will never again know the truth about any liberal politicians without a full blown revolution. Or an A-Bomb hitting D.C. so we can start fresh.
Translation: Damage control. Let's wait and see how damaging before so we can see what we can release.
It all depends on the meaning of ‘contact’.
Along with his birth certificate, his medical records and his college transcripts. The most open and honest administration ever on Earth is off to a sleazy start.
What I found interesting is talking heads on the networks stating that Obama was already in his honeymoon and will have used most of it by the time that he takes office.
Obama, lawyer that he is, knows all this.
This whole change schtick kinda reminds me of the scene in “My Cousin Vinny” where Vinny is told to wear a decent suit to court and the next day shows up in the same suit he had on the day before. The judge asks Vinny why he didn’t follow his order and Vinny looks at him and says incredulously “You were SERIOUS about that?!”
Turn around, around again....We’ve got spin.
If a simple FOIA request can bring Obama to his knees, it's scary to think what international despots on the world stage will do to him.
The main difference is Vinny was subsequently held in contempt and thrown in jail. It will be a constant struggle to hold Obama responsible for his missteps, even if the public ever learns the answers.
Who says Obama isn’t being transparent?
I can see right through Obama ...from my house.
Man, this guy is going to put Bill and Hillary to shame. I can see it coming
Get used to it! There is a dogeared copy of 1984 on the Big O’s desk. It is his users manual.
Let’s hope the media finally get a “Wait an effing minute here” moment when the “Transparent One” slams the door in their face on a technicality.
Too funny! Osama creates a fake "Office of the President-Elect" and it turns out to be better than the real thing! He'll probably keep it and put Hillary into the Presidency so he can continue to do things like dodge open records laws.
I thought he promised to release his “review” THIS week? 0bama is a bigger liar than Slick Willie.
This Blagovich scandal is only about corruption.
Can’t we move on?
random question: wonder how much salary BHO et al are drawing under the non-profit in addition to their current salaries?
just want to repost this part, for emphasis Obama’s transition team, which is set up as a private non-profit group under section 501 (c) (4) of the Internal Revenue Service code, will have its disposal $5.3 million in taxpayer money administered by the General Services Administration, not to mention office space in downtown Washington, “.gov” e-mail addresses and $1 million worth of federal training for key political appointees.
But during the 1988 transition between Presidents Ronald Reagan and George H. W. Bush, Metcalfe penned a Justice Department memo explaining that “it is executive branch control, not mere funding, that determines whether an entity is an ‘agency’ for purposes of the (Freedom of Information Act).”
