B.S.
ANN COMPTON: Before I walked out the door on September 10, I was a strong voice for complaining that this particular administration has been more opaque ...
It is curious that these various reporters only mention their 'toughness' AFTER they have departed from their previous employers.
Most of them just fawned all over Obama at every opportunity. I don't recall Compton being any different.
Of course, memory can play tricks on people. What they thought they knew can turn out to be foggy.
