The first single being blocking access to the White House Visitor's Logs:

I'm waiting for Dick Morris or Sean Hannity to pick up on this and assume that Obama is hiding a White House picnic with Rev. Wright, Bill Ayers, and ACORN. 

But really Obama, are you really going to continue W's failures? 

This transparancy thing you talked about, when do we get to see that?

Uh, right now... Obama's claims are now transparent as election rhetoric.

Therefore it wouldn't beall that much of a stretch to conclude that Obama's new shiny "transparent" means beyond surreal . . .

Maybe he's not giving out a list of these people fro their safety and sanity.

If I visited and has a chat with him I wouldn't want the world knowing cause then there'd be media all over asking this and that and possibly even death threats

Cause this country is full of noseys and CRAZIES.

Everything is about "safety" or "security".  What are you talking about?

It could also be that the policy wasn't dropped since bush and he hasn't addressed it yet but thats unlikely.

Considering the word actually derives from trans- and pareo, meaning to be seen, it could literally mean "beyond being seen".

Sorry, I seem to have had a bit of "the Jackass" at time of that post.  I was thinking that legitimate security concerns are lost in a crowd of sooper-sekrits on the basis of "national security".

The nosy will find out anyways, especially if it's not worth knowing.

The crazy will make shit up, available data or no.

for those who have not developed a deep and all inclusive cynicism about politics, the words hope and change stood for hope and change, to those that have developed their cynicism and those who and soon will, the words hope and change were empty and meaningless slogans no different than any other crap spouted by a politician during an election..

I still think we're doing better than we would have under McCain.

I am fairly sure some of Obama's decisions have been based on his attempts to reconcile both parties.

Why he's bothering to do that is beyond me, since he's IN FUCKING CONTROL for two years, but I assume it is related to his own acknowledgement of his lack of experience.

Far more than continuing some misguided security policies from the Bush days and being lenient with military interrogators, I'm worried that he'll end up adopting a weak centrist stance for his entire presidency, and be re-elected for it.  I can't imagine myself voting against him in the next election (as bad as a weak president is, any Republican I can think of would be worse).

I sometimes wonder if some of his decisions are based on the idea that he will not survive his term.

We do have two years.  I mean, they probably want someone with a history, and those can't be manufactured, but...
