What about The Transparency?

I know, The End Justifies The Means!!!

President Obama once promised that negotiations over his health care overhaul would be carried out openly, in front of TV cameras and microphones. Tell that to the White House now.

Republican congressional investigators got the brush-off this past week after pressing for details of meetings between White House officials and interest groups, including drug companies and hospitals that provided critical backing for Obama's health insurance expansion.

Complying with the records request from the House Energy and Commerce Committee "would constitute a vast and expensive undertaking" and could "implicate longstanding executive branch confidentiality interests," White House lawyer Robert Bauer wrote the committee. Translation: Nice try.

It's one more roadblock for Republicans who tapped into widespread anxiety about the scope and costs of the new health care law to regain control of the House in last fall's elections.

President George W. Bush's administration beat back efforts to reveal the dealings between Vice President Dick Cheney's energy task force and industry. President Bill Clinton's administration successfully resisted demands for records of its failed push to remake the health care system, which was overseen by then-first lady Hillary Rodham Clinton.

Funny how the GOP didn't care about "transparency" when it was the secret meetings of the energy task force with Cheney...

I guess the ends justified the means.

oh, so you did it and so can we! Typical response from LJ...

Thats right, the "change" is only the letters R and D. Suckers lol

Revenge best served on a cold plate.........

Obama + Transparency = Muddy Mississippi River Water.
