That's why Dear Leader Obama wanted the White House Visitor Logs classified in the interest of "national security."

That's quite Orwellian. Less Transparency is Greater Openness. More Hopey-Changey.

Yes...cover up. What better way than to confiscate and classify all information?

Fortunately, some information is still leaking out. Look at THIS;

Obama Officials Sat In On Solyndra Meetings - ABC News

Quote:
Officials from the Department of Energy have for months been sitting in on board meetings as "observers" at Solyndra, getting an up-close view as the solar energy company careened towards bankruptcy after spending more than $500 million in federal loan money.

Word of the Energy Department's unusual arrangement came as federal agents on Thursday converged on the California headquarters of the failed solar company, focusing fresh attention on the first corporate beneficiary of President Obama's stimulus program to create new clean energy jobs.
He is going to be hammered by the GOP on this.

This limping Republic is getting a closeup of the corruption that happens in other countries under dictatorships.

Still no swooners appear on this thread. I wonder why that is? I guess they're too busy telling us that the NEW Solyndra's that will be given piles of money in this NEW stimulous will work out fine.

There you are! We knew they'd find some excuse/defense of the obama/Solyndra debacle.
