"That deafening noise we've been hearing is the sound of wheels falling off the most secretive and autocratic presidency in our history."
This is the biggest fraud being perpetrated by the mediacrats. The fact that they can call this administration the most secretive in the shadows of the Clinton administration is a joke. In fact, most of the Bush Administations problems are a result of not being secretive enough, as everything gets leaked to the media from those who have political agendas.
Unlike Clinton who immidiately set up a wall of protection, Bush did no such thing. He has let more previous administration officials remain in place than any other president in decades...hardly the resume of a "secretive" administration. What's amazing is the media making these claims as they ignored Clinton's unprecedented purges from all levels of the executive branch when he was president.
From the DA Massacre that resulted in the termination of all US Attorneys, to the replacement of Inspector Generals and department heads....to even the felonious charges against Billy Dale to remove him from the Travel Office, Bill Clinton had the most secretive administration I can recall. Heck, that administration was so secretive that it had an Attorney General that was often threatened with Contempt of Congress because she wouldn't disclose supboened documents requested during congressional investigations.
The media is an absolute joke in making this claim, since they were the ones AWOL during China-gate, Campaign finance violations, Whitewater, Travelgate...and any number of investigations that the Clinton administration stonewalled, with the help of the media. Please, this isn't even a close contest when you consider the fall-guys, indictments, contempt-of-courts, AWOL and "I can't recall" witnesses that infested the CLinton Administration.

Purges. Hmm. A good word to associate with a national leader who had more people connected to him die or disappear under mysterious circumstances than Joseph Stalin.
