Obama Channels Cheney
Submitted by Melinda L. Secor on Sun, 2012-01-22 02:00
"President Barack Obama came into office pledging to end such secrecy, saying, 'The way to make government accountable is to make it transparent.' On his own energy agenda, however, the president has been as opaque as Cheney, repeatedly holding closed-door meetings, anonymously courting lobbyists, dodging Freedom of Information Act requests, and ignoring subpoenas from Congress."
