Another failure by the BHO administration.....wonder what they're hiding now?

"About 40 different news groups have joined forces to demand the White House answer this one question: Where’s all the open government that President Obama promised?
In a letter sent last week, followed by a meeting among White House officials and members of the press, the media groups complained about restrictions that have been placed on photographers whose primary job descriptions are to take pictures of the president, the Los Angeles Times reported. Only thing is: The White House won’t grant them access, preferring instead to send out photos that have been snapped by their own, in-house photographer.
The practice is tantamount to propaganda, the news organizations complained.
Or, in the words of their letter: The restrictions on accessing the president create “a troubling precedent with a direct and adverse impact on the public’s ability to independently monitor and see what its government is doing.”

Even the old broad BaBa Walters asked the cowh about this lack of openess and 'lack of trustworthyness' with the American people...The cowh's answer....well polls go up and down and I was re-elected because the American people trust me and know that I'm working for them......Only in the arrogant mind of this cowh!....As far as access being limited...this isn't the first time this cowh/administration has taken punitive actions against the press for disagreeing and not supporting the policies...This is the same bunch that are still blaming the media and republicans for painting a negative stories about the [name] cowh healthcare and the roll out to registrations....NOW the administration is calling it a "raging success"....If this were a private corporation and he was the ceo....he'd have been fired long ago...

How about a pic of a fly on Obama's head?
Media to Obama: Where’s the openness you promised? Obama310

or the frustrated Obama pics we see routinely?

I can see why he is limiting photos, but it is the wrong thing to do. If he didn't want to be in the public eye, he shouldn't have run for POTUS.

Beyonce is trying to do the same thing... after we had a field day with this.

Another example of "openness" from this administration - it's a shame when all the obfuscation, stonewalling, excuses, and outright lies by this administration has to be fought through legal means - by our very own CONGRESS.

"FBI impeding inquiry into IRS targeting of conservative groups"

The House’s chief investigator says the FBI is stonewalling his inquiry into whether the agency and the Internal Revenue Service targeted conservative group True the Vote for special scrutiny, and Rep. Darrell E. Issa is now threatening subpoenas to pry loose the information from FBI Director James B. Comey Jr.
Mr. Issa, California Republican, and Rep. Jim Jordan, Ohio Republican, are leading the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee’s IRS inquiry. They also said the FBI is refusing to turn over any documents related to its own investigation into the IRS, which began in the days after an auditor’s report revealed the tax agency had improperly targeted tea party groups for special scrutiny.
“The department’s tactics have impeded a congressional investigation and interfered with the committee’s access to documents and information. Obstructing a congressional investigation is a crime,” Mr. Issa and Mr. Jordan said in their letter to Mr. Comey, warning that if they don’t get the information they will use “compulsory” means.

The chief counsel for the IRS......." I don't recall".....stated over 80 times in testimony!....The ONLY thing that anyone of these bozo's (with apologies to the original bozo) can state with certainty is that the cowh didn't know and wasn't told....
