Transparent POTUS, not so much

The most "transparent" president the United States has ever known, Barack Hussein Obama, has gone dark over the details about what exactly happened with the Navy captives taken by the Islamic Republic. 

The classified details of the capture will conveniently be held out of public view for at least a year, long enough for Obama to thankfully be gone. However, if we can somehow hack into Hillary Clinton's private server, I suspect we'll discover that our Navy personnel were not treated as sweetly as so-called Secretary of State John Kerry claimed, and who vociferously thanked Iran for returning them.

Rep. Randy Forbes (R--Va.) of the House Armed Services Committee told the Washington Free Beacon that the details in the report will likely shock the nation. If only our transparent POTUS would not hide those details. 

But if the information were made public, I have no doubts that we would come to know just how incompetent the Obama administration is by allowing Iran to violate international and maritime law.

"I think that when the details actually come out, most Americans are going to be kind of taken aback by the entire incident, both how Iran handled it and how we handled it," Forbes said. "I think that's going to be huge cause for concern for most Americans. That's why I've encouraged members of Congress to get that briefing so they do know exactly what did take place."

The congressman suggest that Iran filming our sailors, recording them crying, and then forcing them to apologize at gunpoint, may have been even worse than what we've seen publicly.

Gee, I'm so surprised.

Secret docs may be released, a little

Graham making the "safe" call
Washington -- In an unprecedented move, President Obama may actually bow (a little) to the will of the people by releasing part of the 28-page secret chapter from the congressional inquiry into the 9/11 attacks.  The inquiry may reveal a possible Saudi connection to the attackers, and if it doesn't, then I Obama needs to release all 28 pages.

The pages are being kept under lock and key in a basement of the Capitol. They address specific sources of foreign financing and may have provided pocket Koran and camel cheesecake photos for some of the hijackers (possibly the 15 of the 19 who were Saudi nationals) while they were in the U.S. preparing to kill infidels as per Wahhabi custom.

Bob Graham, former co-chairman of the bipartisan panel say the documents point a suspicion at the Saudis, and others agree. Of course, the Saudis deny any and all involvement with providing support for the terrorists, but since when did taqiyya fall out of favor with jihad?

Graham, a former Democratic senator from Florida, revealed that he was told by an administration official that intelligence officials will decide over the next few weeks whether to come clean with the American public, or remain keeping us in the dark. They plan to use the "it's all for national security" ploy if the documents are kept from us.

But as luck would have it, President Obama has declared himself to be the "most transparent president in the history of the world," so stay tuned for more on the documents.

For now, rest assured that the documents are safe.

Secret talks by "President Transparency"

The "most transparent" administration ever in the United States secretly met with North Korea with the goal of formally ending the Korean War. 

In the past, we have had the condition that Pyongyang begin to curtail its nuclear arsenal. Obama has since dropped that condition because, evidently, he trusts North Korea to do the right thing even though they have been lax to do the right thing in the past. They scoff at agreements.

Now we are calling for their atomic-weapons program to simply be part of the negotiations, but Pyongyang flipped Obama off and went ahead with a nuclear test on January 6th.

In a weak attempt to save face, State Department spokespuppet John Kirby said, "To be clear, it was the North Koreans who proposed discussing a peace treaty. We carefully considered their proposal, and made clear that denuclearization had to be part of any such discussion."

North Korea rejected it. 

"Our response to the North Korean proposal was consistent with our longstanding focus on denuclearization," Kirby said.

It's obvious that North Korea respects us as much as Iran does., as much as the Middle East does. Even as much as our allies do. But along with the loss of respect under the Obama administration, comes lack of trust.

The next president is going to have to do a lot of global repair work and regain that trust and respect.

I cannot imagine that happening with a liberal government.

Transparency, Translucency or Opaque--What Difference Does It Make?


The Freedom of Information Act will no longer be available to people, particularly reporters, interested in looking into the shady dealings of the White House Office of Administration. The Obama administration is stripping a federal regulation that made that office subject to records requests. 

The decision comes on National Freedom of Information Day and Sunshine Week, a media movement to highlight issues of government transparency. "How ironical, Olive."

So the Obama White House, like it did under the former Bush White House, will be able to reject records requests.

According to Barack Hussein Obama, he is the most transparent president ever to grace the Oval Office. "From the day he took office, the President committed his Administration to work towards unprecedented openness in government," Brandi Hoffine, a White House spokeswoman said.

Of course, this does not count in terms of his personal life, such as his school records, which he had spent almost $1.5 million on lawyers to seal.

Did Hillary sign the  OP 109 separation document? The Obama administration isn't saying whether she did or not. Hillary is only saying "Hello there," when asked the question by the press. She, like Obama, are transparent, if you ask them.

While the Office of Administration was one of the few offices in the administration that had to comply with FOIA requests, most of the others do not have to comply. Under G.W. Bush, that changed and Obama, for all the grief he has heaped on Dubya is doing the same thing.

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

The Most Transparent Thing About Obama is His Lack of Transparency

Exclusively using a private email server as secretary of state is perhaps illegal, but if not, we undoubtedly can agree that it's wrong and downright stupid. Hillary Clinton's judgment is clearly analogous to that of a liberal tweaking Chuck Norris's nose and then calling him a pussy. It's stupid and it's going to get you hospitalized with only Obamacare to depend upon. Good luck.

But the Obama administration has stepped away from Hillary on this latest scandal and as "the most transparent administration" in the history of the United States, wants to get to the bottom of this.


So, is the Obama administration the most transparent one ever to grace the White House?


The answer is clearly: hahaha hahaha NO!

Obama's Transparency Defined

We need to change the way we interpret Barack Obama's words. In his first speech as president back in 2009, he claimed that he would be the "most transparent president" that ever graced the office. What he meant was that he would be the most transparent "black" president that ever graced the office. Maybe what he meant by transparency is that even a low info voter like, say, Joe Biden, would be able to see through his need for controlling the message, like the fact that he does not want to allow independent journalists photo opportunities and would use White House staffers to do the job.

It is becoming increasingly clear that Obama, with his approval of the nuclear option, his absolute lack of transparency as the public defines it, and his incessant lies, political ploys that are clearly socialistic in their structure, is going beyond his job description. He doesn't see himself as the President of the United States of America; he seems to see himself as King of the United Socialist States of America.

The left, with all their phony tolerance, continue making excuses for him. Then whenever he's challenged, the race card appears, and this is actually the real racism of lowered expectations. 

Transparency? I believe the new definition of that term, according to our Bricked Up Window in Chief, is: "whatever the hell I, Barack Hussein Obama, says it is."


My latest novel, Jihad Joe, is about Islamic terrorism and suspense. In it I challenge the precepts of the religion through my protagonist, Zed Nill, a journalist, captured by terrorists and who is destined to be killed if the American President refuses to release three Gitmo prisoners.  Of course, American policy demands we never give in to terrorists, and for Zed, the clock is ticking.
