Obama Accepts Transparency Award… In A Secret Meeting
How does the most transparent president in American history accept an award for transparency? In a secret, closed-to-the-press meeting, of course.
George Orwell would be proud…
President Obama finally and quietly accepted his “transparency” award from the open government community this week — in a closed, undisclosed meeting at the White House on Monday.
The secret presentation happened almost two weeks after the White House inexplicably postponed the ceremony, which was expected to be open to the press pool.
FLASHBACK: Here’s Obama in 2009 talking about how awesomely transparent he would be…
REALITY: Here’s how transparent Obama really is.
To be fair… He did promise change.
