It Begins…Democrats Introduce Bill to Seal Obama’s Presidential Records

According to Judicial Watch, Rep. Edolphous Towns (D-NY) has introduced the Presidential Records Act Amendments of 2011. That bill would do with Obama’s presidential records what Obama has already done to his personal and collegiate records: Seal them up.

In an obvious effort to protect President Barack Obama, a group of congressional Democrats has introduced legislation to create an official process that will allow the commander-in-chief to keep presidential records secret after he leaves office.

Ironically, Obama revoked a similar George W. Bush order in one of his first official acts as president. In 2001 Bush penned an executive order severely limiting public access to his presidential records. Shortly after swearing in, Obama killed it as part of his much-ballyhooed commitment to government transparency. At the time, the new president claimed that he was giving the American people greater access to “historic documents.”

Dead in the house, enacted by Executive Order, which will be reversed once Obama is out of office.

Valdmir Lenin, Karl Marx, Che’ Guevero, and the rest of Obama’s heros would be proud.

As my tagline has stated for 3 years. I truly expect this president to see prison time once his transgressions become more public.

Aid and comfort to the enemy is still treason in my book.

It used to strike me as rather odd, those multiple levels of seals in the book of Revelation.

Well not anymore, not after seeing this nobama character encase his entire history in sealing wax.

Weird that it should be a Lamb that busts the seals open, considering the role of Ms. Lamb in the...

I don’t know if we want to hear any more about this guy after he’s gone.... his records are going to be filled with corruption and questionable / treasonous like decisions.

Put Obama on the same pile as Carter and call it done... move on and try to forget.

Prison? I thought high treason was punishable by something else entirely?

I’m certainly not willing to “forgive and forget”. If there’s no repercussions for these traitors, I wash my hands of this government for all time.

It won’t be hard for them to cover up what happened during his presidency. They’ve made a point to set up ghost communications avenues via Gmail, Yahoo, etc. All of that will be inaccessible via Freedom Of Information Act, etc.

Who was US President from 2008? Oh, that’s classified.

It wasn't "Barack Obama".

It was some guy named Barry.

Not born in the U.S.

Connolly, Gerald [D-VA11]—Not surprised about this a**hole being a co-sponsor.

This bastard attended the “Islamic Spirit Convention” to support Dar Al Hijrah at the Islamic Institute in Annandale, VA.on August 3rd, 2010.

I e-mailed the sonofab*tch and the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors when it happened, just to let them know WE knew.

Hope he and others join Bath-House Barry in nearby cells after the SHTF.

Never forget these bastards!!! NEVER!!!

"Put Obama on the same pile as Carter and call it done... move on and try to forget."

So Democrats can try again later? No thanks. I hope Mitt exposes everything and drives a stake in the heart of this democrat party.
