Shocker: Obama Isn’t Transparent

The Obama Administration told a bunch of whoppers: it was going to support gay rights; it was going to repeal Don't Ask, Don't Tell; it was going to close Gitmo right away; it was going to pull our troops out of Iraq almost immediately; it was going to have no lobbyists working in the government; it was going to be transparent; it was going to have every bill visible in final form for five days before Obama signed it. And unfortunately, the mainstream media bought all this garbage, asking no questions, never challenging candidate Obama about how all this was going to happen. And they are now just barely starting to challenge President Obama when they discover that he either lied to them, or didn't have a clue what he was getting himself into as President/Clayton Cramer. More here.

Question: Do you believe the Obama administration is transparent enough?
