Transparency? Treasury Secretary Hires Firm to Help Cover Up Records » Publications » Family Security Matters: "Following a political tsunami that gave control of the House of Representatives, increased GOP members of the U.S. Senate, and increased the number of Republican governors nationwide, President Barack Obama will be leaving the U.S. behind to schmooze with officials in a country that actually likes him.
One result of this upcoming trip is a 'battle of op-eds' regarding the cost of Obama's lavish trip to places such as Mumbai, India. One estimate being touted is $200,000,000 per day. While Obama's defenders say that figure is wrong, they claim for national security reasons the White House will not release the amount of money to be spent on the President's trip.
Using that rationale, the costs of the Iraq and Afghanistan wars, the price tags of big-ticket weapons programs, and other costs associated with national security should not be disclosed. Apparently, running the most transparent administration in history was just a catchy campaign slogan for Barack Obama."
