Transparency In Government ???

Yesterday at BigGovernment.com, Tom Fitton reported that after a five-year battle, Judicial Watch has been given the documents it requested regarding Hillarycare.  The article points out that President George W. Bush was generally reluctant to release records from the Clinton Administration–he publicly expressed a desire to move beyond the scandals of hte Clinton Administration.  This policy probably prevented the Clinton smear machine from attacking him even more than they did.

The article cites information from three of the documents included in the 54,527 pages.  The documents cited deal with issues that also apply to Obamacare.  It is interesting that these documents were not released until Obamacare was passed by Congress.

Please follow the link above the read the contents of the three memoranda cited.  I don’t know if any of the press will run this story, but it is noteworthy that it took five years to obtain these documents.  The American people are entitled to know in a timely manner what goes on in their government in matters that do not endanger national security–five years is not a timely manner.
