Remember when candidate Trump pledged to have the most transparent presidency ever?

Jesus fricking christ people. Is this the logic? Obama wasn't that transparent so it doesn't bother me.


Is that what you want, you spend 8 years excoriating him then when Trump does something that should be criticized it's hey but Obama did it to!

Do you not think Trump should be better than Obama?

Again, this goes back to my previous post. The tribal hyperpartisanship that two party system has become is ruining this country.

And just to shut your smart arse up, yeah I do fricking remember. As I have pointed it out in my previous posts.

Obama was a complete hypocrite in regards to transparency among other things,

For god's sake people they work for us! We either want government transparency and accountability or we don't. It was not justified for Holder and it shouldn't be now.

Obama's hypocrisy was shameful. And the liberal media even wrote about it. (this was link to slate article in the original post) President Obama promised transparency and open government. He failed miserably. So why do Washington watchdog groups look the other way?

It seems to me that historically these guys are chiefly concerned with enriching themselves at the expense of the people. Either way, as I stated before it is disconcerting he is breaking away from his campaign platform. It is discouraging when Presidents do this. When Obama promised a transparent administration and did not come close to fulfilling that promise it was disheartening as well. We as citizens need to hold politicians accountable.

The media not actively condemning Obama's lack of transparency, and his continuation of many of Bush policies he lambasted in his campaign was a major blight. I've heard some journalists from WaPo, NYT, NPR mention that fact. But not enough. It's like how Republicans and Democrats don't criticize the president abusing his executive power if the president is a member of their own party. But will if they are not. It's sad.

So all you mindless sheep can frick off.

I try to be objective and call it like I see it, which is way more than you half-wits or the half-wits on DU for that matter. But yall can't take the criticism of your dear leader, so all you can muster up is dismissive accusations that I'm some crazy leftist
