The Most Transparent Administration in History?

[Barbella]

Ho-hum... just another lie... anyone surprised?

Seriously... how much b.s. will kool-aiders swallow before they wake up to reality?

The Obama administration has set a new record for rejecting Freedom of Information Act requests, according to a report published Friday.


The administration censored materials or rejected requests for access in a record 596,095 cases, or 77 percent of the time, according to the annual review conducted by the Associated Press. That's an increase of 12 percent since Obama's first year in office.

This administration is the most corrupt we've had in my lifetime. It beats out Richard Nixon's hands down. I am sickened by the corruption that has led me to distrust anyone who claims to be a Democrat and supports Obama in any way. They are complicit.

Makes you wonder what they're hiding, doesn't it?

I bet it's A LOT. Why else deny a record number of requests?

Actually the Reagan administration was the first to have a cabinet secretary plead the 5th...Silent Sam Pierce, head of HUD, refused to testify about the disappearance of $5 billion in taxpayer money. Deborah Gore Dean went to jail.

"By the end of his term, 138 Reagan administration officials had been convicted, had been indicted, or had been the subject of official investigations for official misconduct and/or criminal violations. In terms of number of officials involved, the record of his administration was the worst ever."

Imagine that!!! The Great Ronald Reagan had a corrupt administration. Isn't it funny how those who bleat about corruption seem to forget the past?

If you did a little bit of research you'd know that in some cases the document requested couldn't be found...in others people wouldn't pay for copies...If you think Obama reviews FOI requests you are out of your mind....It would be more accurate to find out how many FOI requests have been requested of the Executive Branch....If you file a request for any and all documents of conversations between Obama and Santa Claus...what do you suppose happens? Is Obama hiding something?

It's all about statistics...how many requests were filed under past administrations? Does anyone know? How many were refused?

I am willing to concede that Obama's Administration is more opaque than transparent, but the Boooooosch administration was much more corrupt and equally opaque.

It's all about "the most transparent administration ever"
Vs "this administration set A NEW RECORD for denying FOIA requests".

This shouldn't be hard, even for someone like you.

Great, so the Obama cartel denies the requests because they've already destroyed the documents.

By the way, who is responsible for the actions of the Obama administration? I'll give you a hint: it's not George W. Bush.

He doesn't seem to 'get' the concept of "the most ever". Brick wall? LOL
