Obama’s most blatant lie of all?
Remember when President Obama promised that his administration would be the most transparent ever? I’m trying to figure out if any of his many lies have been more blatant than that one.
Yes, that particular lie has a lot of competition. But considering that the outcry against his lack of transparency comes as much from liberals as it does from conservatives, I’d have to say it’s right up there among his most obvious lies.
What brought this to mind was a recent letter to congressional leaders from 47 of the government’s 73 independent watchdogs known as inspectors general. The letter accused several major agencies, including the Justice Department, the Peace Corps and the Chemical Safety and Hazard Investigation Board, of imposing “serious limitations on access to records.”
The Obama Administration has a very good reason for hiding these records by calling them “privileged.” They know that the records will show a bunch of waste, fraud and mismanagement. And the one thing they don’t want is more scandals piled on top of all the other ones.
Part of the letter reads, “Agency actions that limit, condition or delay access thus have profoundly negative consequences for our work; they make us less effective, encourage other agencies to take similar actions in the future and erode the morale of the dedicated professionals that make up our staffs.”
What are these agencies withholding? Well, the Peace Corps has been withholding records of sexual assaults against its volunteers. The Justice Department has been withholding records for reviews until determining whether those reviews are helpful to their department leadership. Even the EPA’s inspector general had trouble getting documents from the Chemical Safety and Hazard Investigation Board.
House Oversight Committee Chairman Darrell Issa said that there has never been a letter like this coming from even a dozen inspectors general, let alone 47 of them.
“This is the majority of all inspectors general saying not just in the examples they gave, but government wide, they see a pattern that is making them unable to do their job.”
From claiming you’re going to oversee the most transparent administration in the history of the country to becoming the least transparent administration in the history of the country…that’s quite a leap, even for this president.
If the Obama Administration suddenly fulfilled its promise to be the most transparent ever, what do you think we would learn about what’s going on behind closed doors?
I’m sure he meant for our enemies . Through his secretary of State they had access to every national secret ever discussed during her tenure . I suppose technically that could be the transparency he smirkingly promised
His legacy and presidential library will consist of nothing but a portable outhouse and a copy of a Sears & Roebuck catalog inside.
i was thinking on more like a short wall to get behin d and some old coon kobs to use period vskdphog
“First Obama tells us that he’s going to have the most transparent administration in U.S. history. Then he turns around and creates the most secretive administration in U.S. history. Does this make sense to anyone?”
He also feigns concern for the middle class and then pushes AHCA through and along with other policies he hog ties the middle class so they can’t earn a decent living.. He is so twisted when it comes to the American Free Lifestyle which he enjoys at public expense while the Middies are up to their necks in the waters of extreme debt. Arrest this criminal for high crimes against the people of America, impeachment is way too good for him!!!!
Our country all ready was in deep trouble when Obama took office and for him to blatantly lie to his citizens is unexquestionbly the biggest clue that he has a hidden agenda for all of us!!!!! He continues to make changes under the table that directly impact us and our future, simply because he has his own agenda and is getting by with it! It’s certainly NOT for the good of it’s citizens! When presidents do things in secret, it’s simply because he wants to hide the truth for some reason!!!!! What’s next? Obama calling civil unrest so he can completely take over? Other presidents have been impeached for far less, so why hasn’t he been impeached by now???? With the ways things are being changed without our knowledge and acceptance, I don’t feel like we have a future anything like you and me invisioned. People need to take a stand and take back our country before it’s too late! Because if we don’t, everything will change and it’s not going to be for the better! Are you ready to give up everything you worked so hard for or to maybe have you’re family split up and scattered? I wish that people would open their eyes and see these warning signs before it’s too late! And it may be as soon as this November, when the elections take place, if they do at all!!!!!!!
We are living in satans wicked system. These are the last days of his wicked system of things.Jesus will come like a thief in the night u will not know the hour but be prepared ! Check out jw.org you will find ansers !

I for one will never, EVER forget the 2012 Democratic convention I watched on television. If you remember correctly, or have a way to go back and play it from a non- edited recording that “may” still be accessible; It’s Platform had about 50% of the delegates wanting GOD “excluded” from their platform text. The person with the gavel onstage was directed to FIRST have the present delegates vote on an amendment that had been pro-posed by delegates “that would put “GOD” (the CREATER of OUR world and MAN if you haven’t forgotten) back into the Platform. The vote from the delegates present in that huge auditorium was clearly divided by a show of hands to be 50/50 or too close to call. The Narrator with the gavel was told to try again and the result was the SAME. On a third try, you could tell (it was on the television screen) the vote results stayed the same (and the narrator paused as though he wasn’t sure what to do) and was then I believe “prompted” by either someone on his earpiece or from behind the stage curtain” to hit the gavel and say the ” ayes” have won” and the motion is carried.
They hadn’t really, but for the sake of the Democratic platform in 2012 GOD was placed back in the Platform for the Democrats. From that point on . . . I REALIZED that the DEMOCRATIC PARTY was “now” 50%
Christian Democrats and the other 50% are NOW what we term the Democrat “PROGRESSIVES” ! ! ! ! A recent poll in 2015 showed that there are NOW over 300,000 + Muslim’s living in America today who said that they still prefer “Sharea Law” to America’s U.S. Constitution ! I guess their delegates present at the convention hadn’t gotten their way – YET !
YES, MY fellow Americans, there WERE some strong points to still ponder, back in the day, WHEN YOU COULD watch a TV show LIVE instead of seeing an “edited” or “enhanced” digital” piece of footage from the Democratic Convention’s Platform in 2012 REPLAY, and the Platform vote on the floor of the Convention Center.
Guess the Christian Democrat delegates still out numbered the Socialistic, Communist, Muslim and other Religious backed delegates didn’t get their way yet ! Maybe they will do better in 2016 ? Watch the Convention LIVE but remember it’s on “Digital” TV now and it takes but a split second of network time to “correct” the images you’d be watching in later re-runs on the “NEWS” of today’s networks.
You can’t believe anything obummer says.
So. . . .Show me the letters. Attach a link to the source so I can read them myself. I’m really tired of the generalizations.
If you’re so tired… Google it, dufus.
It is funny, sad but true, that the more someone proclaims the need for transparency they more they need to hide all those dirty little secrets. For if these secrets are not properly concealed then the entire organization, in this case the Government, is in danger. When the entire system depends on lies and people willing to keep these secrets what can you expect? If the average unconcern citizen doesn’t care then who does it really hurt, as long as their needs are met.
When the people begin to awake from their self induced slumber and realize that the country that was left to a bunch of crooked politicians; they will have no one to blame but themselves and the daunting task of cleaning up the big mess. This is the perfect opportunity for these crooked politicians to heap even more cash and opportunity and prestige from the chaos; as long as they are not identified as the cause or part of the problem or with their hands caught in the cookie jar.
By using redundant and confusing language, these politicians are able to ensure that their secrets are safe and secure. When confronted by honesty and honesty is persistent to getting the truth, the politician will buckle under the pressure and left the scene like the dirty skunk that he/she is.
Vigilance is our only recourse. Without it we are doomed to suffer the same ole, same ole.
I remember the first birth certificate (the “short form”) was almost immediately shown to be highly edited shortly after it came out, before O’s first election. He wasn’t so transparent then either.
This is kinda of off subject but this has been on my mind and need to get it out there. After hearing ramadi falling to isisi, i flashed back to the day saigon fell, what a slap in the face of every man and woman who served, not to mention the 58,000 plus that payed the ultimate with there lives. I wish a movement would start to march on d.c and demand the impeachment of the so called commander in thief of the u.s , before it is to late to right the ship and get back to the way the u.s once was…..
I would go for that IMPEACH IMPEACH IMPEACH
An ancient tradition says that the original Liar was the father of all the others. Do we even know for sure who is the father of our current Usurper-in-Chief?
I don’t know why everyone is so shocked about Barry Soetoro. If EVERYONE had done his/her due diligence in the beginning, the man would not be president today. And you can’t use the excuse that he has no discoverable background because if you had tried to look into his background in the beginning, you’d have found that he paid millions of dollars to a law firm to hide his background. There’s no escaping this one… the American public is stupid.
When eighteen year old,s, as well as many adults,with no idea about world history, let alone early American history, got the vote, is why we’re in the mess we’re in today with our political system. I was an eighteen year old who served in Viet Nam, along with my brother who didn’t make it back home and we thought at the time we should have been allowed to vote at eighteen, but we were so wrong !! Take it back to twenty one. Our education system has to go back to teaching real, honest ( the good as well as the bad ) and not the propaganda version of history as is taught today. End The Dept Of Education, it’s just a brainwashing pipeline !!
Thanks, Bill. Very well said!!!
If people had known the history of, and remembered the 1950,s and 60,s in Central and South America, and the Marxist movements taking place then, you would have heard the echos of those revolutionaries in every one of Obama’s speeches from his first campaign for public office, right up to every speech he gives today !!!
Amen
All of this pales compared to the fact that Hillary Clinton is selling state secrets to middle east countries. Remember her e-mail scandal? Well, she has a foundation the proposes to support the cause of the advancement of women. Saudi Arabia and several other middle east countries have donated huge sums to this foundation. But NOT for the advancement of women (remember that Saudi Arabia doesn’t even allow women to drive a vehicle). No, their donations are not for the advancement of women. Their donations for not donations; they are payment for state secrets. And Barry Soetoro will profit from this as well. Selling state secrets can make you rich indeed.
We haven’t had a transparency in our government since our founding forefathers held offices in the 1700’s. As a matter of fact the last TRUE president that we had was John F. Kennedy, who was killed for turning against the global elite and tried to bring our troops home from the Vietnam. And unfortunately we the people are in for a very rude awakening with the coming apocalyptic events that will bring our country not only to it’s knees, but behead it in an islamic caliphate sharia law execution. I love this country, and I joined our military to serve and protect our inhabitants with honor, courage, and commitment. But had I known the true underlying political treasons that were taking place, I never would have joined the sleeping giant’s club known as U.S. military. I pray for our country and our leaders in congress, that they would wake up and put an end to this tyranny. Unfortunately, that will not happen until this country founded under God’s laws has a mass awakening and revival to return to the binding concepts that originally made this land GREAT.
Your first sentence is simply not true. Opacity of the past pales compared to that since Reagan… as evidenced by what happened to Nixon for his relatively minor transgression vs. those of Obama, Clinton and the Bushes (especially II).
So what else is new? The news media talks about wha t he wants to leave the country as his legacy. I think we already have his legacy. lie, lie, lie
What else is new? Well, I’ll tell you…

Transparency. When he said transparency he meant transparency of past administrations not his IRS.,EPA or Bengazi or Secret democratic meetings and surely not any of the departments in his administration Will have transparency even during investigations you can’t have transparency when the email simply disappeared or staff members are leaving their position. He is one of those that when his mouth is open lies are coming out
