"Obama blocks list of visitors to White House"
"Despite President Barack Obama's pledge to introduce a new era of transparency to Washington, and despite two rulings by a federal judge that the records are public", to boot.
Who else thinks it's vitally important for the public to be able to know exactly who comes calling on our President in order to lobby him on issues or ask for "favors"?
To be fair, Bush 43 had the exact same policy, and we didn't agree with it then, either. We thought, though, that President Obama was going to usher in a fantastic new era of "transparency", in stark contrast to his predecessor's penchant for secrecy, which the Messiah decried on a regular basis?
"'It's great that President Obama made this commitment to transparency,' [nonpartisan watchdog group CREW attorney Anne L.] Weismann said. 'But now you need to make good on it.'"
Don't hold your breath, ma'am.
