The Democrat version of “transparency”
February 5th, 2009 by adminFirst, Obama is going to ban all lobbyists — except those he likes. Then the Dems in Congress are going to “drain the swamp” — except for folk like Rangel, Dodd, et al. Then they are going to go after all those horrible rich people who aren’t paying enough taxes — except for those who he wants on his Cabinet. And now we are going to see how the Dems give us “transparency” as they rob us. From DailyPundit:
Mayor Richard Daley said today Chicago has compiled a wish list of “shovel-ready projects” to spend federal economic stimulus funds on should Congress approve a plan.Unlike hundreds of other cities, however, Daley said Chicago won’t make its list public.
“Yes, we do, we have our list, we’ve been talking to people. We did not put that out publicly because once you start putting it out publicly, you know, the newspapers, the media is going to be ripping it apart,” Daley said.
This is how Democrats govern: In secrecy, steeped in corruption they can’t afford to make public, hiding from the people who put them into office.
