Transparency? Gimme A Break!

"Sen. Barack Obama’s campaign says his campaign will bring a new level of honesty and transparency to the White House." Where have I heard that before? Oh, yeah. Clinton used the very same words when he was running--both times. But did you notice any more "transparency" from HIS White House? I certainly didn't. If anything, his was one of the most SECRETIVE White Houses on record. That remark ought to be "trademarked" by the Democrat Party because ALL their candidates use it. And you can count on the fact that it is not true. Obama claims Bush is "one of the most secretive presidents in history (not true). "Ironically, Obama, just days away from possibly being elected president, continues to stonewall a growing chorus of information requests for documents about his legislative, personal health, education, financing, and background -- leaving many voters to cast ballots based on incomplete information. And serious questions about his past continue to swirl as Election Day looms, fueled in part by his own campaign’s refusal to make relevant documents available. And the press, usually banging at the door for candidates to make “full disclosure” is strangely quiet about Obama’s stonewalling." (News Max)
