In a 2008 campaign speech, the Liar-in-Chief proclaimed: “I'll make our government open and transparent so that anyone can ensure that our business is the people's business. No more secrecy. That is a commitment that I make to you as president.”
Like many things with this friggin' liar, his actions are not fulfilling his promises. The latest bit of transparency news has to do with Operation Fast and Furious because it looks like basic details is about all anyone can expect to get, thanks to the Obama administration now sealing court records of the details of the death of this U.S. Border patrol agent. So the most transparent administration in history has locked up the information and thrown away the key, leaving the public and the media wondering exactly what role the Obama administration played in the death of this Border patrol agent.
But this shouldn’t come as a shock, based on the history of the Obama administration thus far. Did you know that the federal government’s 35 largest agencies actually decreased the number of fulfilled FOIA requests by more than 12,400? Also: “The Obama administration censored 194 pages of internal e-mails about its Open Government Directive,” according to the Associated Press.
Within the first month of Obama’s administration, he was already granting waivers for his lobbyist ban. The administration, according to insiders, has developed a reputation for “ruthlessly prosecuting whistleblowers.”
And remember the Black Panther voter intimidation case? The Obama administration illegally refused to comply with subpoenas and FOIA requests for information about why the case was dismissed by the Justice Department.
Those are just some of the many examples to show how Barack Obama is full of sh*t. He can campaign on transparency and then run the least transparent government, perhaps, in modern history. Who knows … when it is all said and done. He can run a campaign based on not being a tax and spend liberal, but he can spend at record-shattering levels. Look, actions speak louder than words. Too bad that most of the American people don’t have time to follow up on his actions and simply rely on his words as their source of information. Ignorance is bliss...but tragic for the futures of our kids and grandkids.
WAKE UP AMERICA AND SEE WHAT THIS PIECE OF CRUD IS DOING TO US!!!
