Transparency & Obama

"Every time the American people want to know something that I, or a former president, want to withhold, we will have to consult with the Attorney General and the White House Council; whose business it is to ensure compliance with the rule of law. Information will not be withheld, just because I say so... Let me say it as simply as I can, transparency and the rule of law will be the touchstone of this Presidency." Merely three days after these words were spoken by President Obama, the American people want to know the events surrounding the US air-strikes that killed at least 20 people in Pakistan. And the reply, from the Presidency that has made transparency a top priority? We all know that most promises made in the race to the White House, or at least the Conservative promises will never happen, wont ever happen but a man who ran his race off of this soo called change and transparency has gone back to old partisan and well a bubble of confusion! I do wonder though why Obama for his first interview with the press would pick the Arab news network! I am not racist i believe the Muslims are great people but we need to talk to the extremist not the normal people!!! Well that was a quick rant from the right!
