Obama: Not So Transparent
“The Obama administration is declining to release documents that would identify visitors to the White House, embracing a legal position taken by the Bush administration, according to a watchdog group that filed a federal lawsuit over access to the records.
“The group, Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington, filed its lawsuit after being denied access to Secret Service records, including White House entry and exit logs, that would identify coal and energy industry visitors.
“The government’s refusal to release the records contrasts with President Barack Obama’s pledge of transparency.”
Must be something in the wall paper of the White House, or a brain wave machine that says hide, hide, hide everything!
