“Is Obama Breaking His Vow Of Transparency?”

Isn’t this FAR too obvious to even BE a question?

Since he hasn’t been transparent about HIMSELF, why would he be transparent about anything else.
He just wants to LOOK & SOUND and have people believe, he’s transparent.

It is indeed the most transparent Administration ever.

A transparent effort to kill capitalism and move to socialism, to control the media and silence enemies, drive stocks into a crater,and a very transparent grab for the only quality healthcare system left in the world.

Transparency, yeah!

"Press access to administration officials has been virtually eliminated"

Not to worry. The people at CBS (Cowards Bitches and Sycophants) will whine but do nothing substantive.

The public statements that are made by any notable Democrat is usually only for the benefit and consumtion of the public and the crowd they are speaking to. They are the masters of creating a "Perception" of what they are all about.

Perception is reality.

They know full well that the entire Democrat electorate only cares about what is "Said" by the politician and what ever the politician "Does" is ignored because the average Democrat person of the MSP (Main Stream Public) does not follow any investigative news nor do they follow up on what the politician "Does." They only care about the "Words."

Hopefully this will change, but I am not going to hold my breath.

The White House claims that President Obama's administration will be "the most open and transparent in history,"

He wants to claim transparency... He can start by producing his real birth records. Then, if he is still President, he can turn over transcripts of all emails and messages he has gotten on his blackberry. He uses that while he is on our time, then it becomes official business. Can we make FOIA request for it?

Obama will never, ever do either of these of course. He's breaking his promises to the American people left and right - mostly left.

End the wars: not happening.

Close GITMO: yeah, but keep other similar options open.

Bipartisan: "I won" and crams porkus down our throats.

No lobbyists: Immediately seeks waivers to his own rule.

No earmarks: Sends a budget to congress with over 7000 earmarks in it.

In short, he is a liar and a socialist cannot be trusted at all. I do not think he has America's best interests at heart. I think he has his own best interests as his number one priority, followed closely by his idiotic socialist vision for America. The actual good of the Country probably doesn't even make his top ten.

When Obama was talked about 'change', what he really meant was that he was done all we would have left is the change in our pockets.

Or, there's a time coming when we;ll need wheelbarrows of cash to equal the value of the change in our pockets on the day he took office.

As soom as Obama’s transformed the American economy into the Zimbabwe model he will be free to go on to next part of the model, the genocide of the Conservatives.
