Guest 2smart4u Posted October 15, 2009 Report Share Posted October 15, 2009 One of the many campaign promises made by Obama was the pledge of an "open and transparent government", C-span was going to broadcast the meetings of Congress, there would be no secrets, yada, yada, yada. Yesterday the Dems had an all day meeting behind closed doors with Rahm Emanuel, C-Span asked to be admitted and was turned down along with all other news outlets.

Can you provide proof that they were denied entry? I can't seem to find any. And not every meeting can possibly be held in the public eye. C'mon - get real, man. And, not for nothing, but the President cannot control who gets into congressional sessions or meetings. That's up to Congress. Do you want C-Span to tape national security meetings too?

Guest Guest Posted October 17, 2009 Report Share Posted October 17, 2009 Pot, Meet Kettle. you "Progressives" do the exact same thing... Hypocrite That's not true. As a group, progressives are more self-reflective and therefore more intellectually honest that so-called conservatives. Anyone is capable of dishonesty but the progressives in this country don't come anywhere close to the wingnuts on the right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
