I wonder if there is a generational difference between those of us upset at the lack of transparency by Obama, and those of you who do not seem concerned about it.

For whatever it is worth, I went to school starting back in the late 40s, through the 50s, and entered college in the very early 60s.

I was taught “civics”, not social studies, and had to take courses in English and American History. Others of my generation probably did the same, and therefore are much more worried about what we see going on in D.C.

My children, who grew up with Social Studies seem to be blasé about the whole issue. They just focus on their work and family, and ignore what is going on politically. They feel they can’t do much about it, so why worry.

I want to get along with them, so try not to be a nagging mom about the deterioration of our culture, cities, civil discourse, and economy. They don’t want to hear it, even thought they are good citizens, and conservative in their values. They just seem pragmatic about it all.

Yes, men breaking their careers on the rock of Barry's intransigence, while the rest of the military wonders about him, is everyone's fault but Barack. If he WERE legitimate, he would have erased everyone's doubts from the very beginning. That is what a leader would do. A Coward hides.

A real President would see it as their duty to prevent such dissent by being open with their proof.
