It’s about time we understand “transparency.” What is “transparency” you ask? It is another form of the word “transparent.” It was a promise made by our Deceiver-in-Chief Barack Obama. According to paragraph 5 of section 8 subtitle b, of a news paper article that was printed sometime in 2008 on the front page above the fold and continued on page D-5, we can understand what “transparency” means.

If it becomes to difficult to find, page 3 hundred – something of the Cap and Trade bill in paragraph Six section 14 of the preamble to FDR’s New Bill of Rights another lead appears. This lead takes you to Chapter Seven verse 16 of the Book of Genesis. But if you don’t want to read the Bible for religious purposes you can try page 128 of the DiVinci Code, or you can try watching a recorded C-Span clip where Barney Frank sends you to page 5 of Newt Gingrich’s Contract for America back in 1995.

If you use You Tube to get the C-Span clip you will also see a link to a Clip of Chris Mathews getting a tingle up is leg, not “tinkling down his leg,” but tingle up his leg as he spews more “transparency” of our President, but it’s not too “transparent.” I looked somewhere in the Health Care Reform Bill (HR 3200) and paragraph “something or other,” section “I can’t tell where I’m at anymore,” subsection “who the heck cares,” has another definition of “transparency.”

I hope I was “transparent” enough with all my readers in giving you the definition of transparency. If you don’t think this has been too transparent, just think, this is how our Federal Government writes legislation nowadays only with 999 more pages of this gibberish.

I will revert back to the title of my Rant 2 rants ago titled “It is.” It is APPARENT that this Administration and its cohorts in Congress do not want to be TRANSPARENT.

With over 1000 pages for a piece of legislation there is only one thing “transparent” to me, and that is the bill is that long in order to subvert a document that is about 100 times smaller and held dear by many people outside of Washington D.C., The U.S. Constitution.

The Obama-nomics are work well for you? Wait until they cross the conservative majority (both Republican and Democrat) and vote these monstrosities into law.

33 months ago: I agree that the Obama administration has not been as transparent as promised, however it has improved 1000% from the Bush administration, where all freedom of information requests were routinely dismissed and where three years of white house e-mails were destroyed. The bills coming out of Congress are indeed too long and complicated but that is not Obama's fault. That is the result of all of the pigs lining up at the trough, with every special interest asking for special treatment. Simplicity is always preferable and legalize should be outlawed. A simple single payer plan would have been a better health plan but they tried to please every special interest, and a simple Carbon tax would have been considerably more effective and understandable. The Democrats accepted 83 Republican amendments in a futile effort at bipartisanship, but the Republican strategy is to just say NO as you suggested.
Republicans have pipe dreams of getting back in power by killing Obama's plans as they did Clinton's in 1966. But back then the Republican party was know as the party of ideas. Now it is simply the party of NO with no alternative ideas at all, and they are making it abundantly clear who to blame when things don't get done. The nation clearly called for change and all the Republicans stand for, is a status quo that is leading us to disaster.

I am not arguing Bush v. Obama. Bush is out of office, he is not president anymore. That is one thing that gets my blood boiling it is that.

Where is any mention of Obama, stamping out ecconomic liberties of all those senior creditors who were supposed to get repaid first, but their money was given to the unions in the GM bankrupcy. Where is the mention of the present administration trying to dictate pay through an unelected executive officer (the pay czar). Where did you mention the administration setting up a Third Riech style website to "rat on your neighbors." So I don't see your 1000% improvement.

Every executive since Lincoln has slowly eroded outr liberties away. It was Thomas Jefferson who thought a little revolution every generation or so was to be expected in our nation. Well that last revoluton was about 150 years ago. About 7 generations. There has been a lot of freedom taken away by the government in that time. Now may be the time when those chickens (that is freedom loving people) go to D.C. to roost.
