The Most Transparently Opaque Administration Evah!
Remember when candidate Obama promised us "the most transparent Administration in history?" Who bought that line of BS? You? Shmuck.
Remember when the chattering classes went berserk because Dick Cheney held a "secret" meeting with oil company executives? The Democrats said they'd never do something like that. Oh, you bought that line of BS, too? Moron.
Remember when President Obama promised that negotiations over his health care overhaul would be carried out openly, in front of TV cameras and microphones? How'd that work out for you? Rube.
Obama to Congress: No White House meeting minutes for you!
Republican congressional investigators got the brush-off this past week after pressing for details of meetings between White House officials and interest groups, including drug companies and hospitals that provided critical backing for Obama's health insurance expansion.
Complying with the records request from the House Energy and Commerce Committee "would constitute a vast and expensive undertaking" and could "implicate longstanding executive branch confidentiality interests," White House lawyer Robert Bauer wrote the the committee.
Obama's secrets are so secret he can't even tell Congress how many secrets he's got. That must be how Democrats define "transparency."
