Less transparency than the secretive Bush administration:
One year into its promise of greater government transparency, the Obama administration is more often citing exceptions to the nation’s open records law to withhold federal records even as the number of requests for information declines, according to a review by The Associated Press of agency audits about the Freedom of Information Act.
[…]
Major agencies cited the exemption at least 70,779 times during the 2009 budget year, up from 47,395 times during President George W. Bush’s final full budget year, according to annual reports filed by federal agencies. Obama was president for nine months in the 2009 period.

The ultra-left moonbats and those of us on the right, or libertarian side of things might completely disagree with what avenues are best for the country, but I think we can all agree that Obama has given the finger to ALL of us equally, and done a generally inept job so far, with promises to only get worse.

The problem is that libertarians and conservatives knew we’d get the finger. The left is just now coming out of the shock. “He did WHAT? TO *US?*”

Naww, Dixie. They will find a way to make this the fault of hatriots who are just trying to make the sonofabitch look like the sonofabitch he is.
