It’s a curious time for people who believe in transparency and openness in government.
They say they are for transparency. In 2013, President Obama boasted, “This is the most transparent administration in history.” But watch what his administration does.
Today, it will issue new rules exempting a key administrative office that handles issues such as request for access to government email records from the Freedom of Information Act. That law is specifically designed to allow private parties to look at government documents that aren't privileged or involve national security.
Ironically, the nation celebrated FOIA just yesterday with National Freedom of Information Day. By the way, it’s also Sunshine Week in Washington, a celebration of transparency in government of the kind Obama likes to tout.

He’s scared the whole thing is going to blow up in his face.
He’s simply trying to cover for himself.
They’re walking a fine line. They want to embarrass Clinton by revealing the existence of the mail server and the emails, but they don’t want to embarrass themselves by revealing the content of the emails. Tricky business.
An informed electorate is a dangerous electorate. /s
You are exactly right, anything that falls out of the hitlery e mails will land on the head of the IWON. Even if there is nothing in there to implicate the dunce or his people, Hitlery will counter attack against him as she tries to move the spot light away. You just cannot win with these scub bags.

You nailed it.
It can't blow up in his face because the MSM refuses to light the fuse.
an email server kept in a private residence... sending emails to who knows who concerning who knows what from one of the highest cleared people in the country.
yet NOW, 4 years later, 0bama wants to restrict access.
seems the only ones not able to see the contents of those emails would be the judiciary branch of the US govt.
it’s pretty obvious it’s evidence of their treason... hillary AND 0bama.
that was her only real cover... making sure if she got burned, he’d do whatever he could to protect her.
Enter Trey Gowdy, and the US Marshals.
Turn ‘em over Obismo. Your time has arrived.
FOIA was invented for adminisrations like this. He knows it and is in damage control mode.
He’s obviously linked. All it takes is one email.
Congress had better get on the ball and subpoena those hard drives so that the public can find out how Obama and Hillary were conspiring against our country.
The people have the Right to know.
Exactly right.
Wow. If this doesn’t look like a coverup..... there’s evidence against Obama - big time. Traitorous bastard. IMPEACH!!!!!!!!!!
Nut-job Conspiracy Theory Ping!
To get onto The Nut-job Conspiracy Theory Ping List you must threaten to report me to the Mods if I don't add you to the list...
That office is the "Admininstration Office" of the White House. AFAIK, this has ZERO to do with Hillary. The article is fine but the headline editor should be fired.

Congress still does nothing.
"...the media will slow down now that the clintons paid their fair share..*LOL**LOL*"
