Obama Administration Withholds FoIA Requests More Often Than Bush's
bonch writes "Agencies under the Obama administration cite security provisions to withhold information more often than they did under the Bush administration. For example, the 'deliberative process' exemption of the Freedom of Information Act was used 70,779 times in 2009, up from the 47,395 of 2008. Amusingly, the Associated Press has been waiting three months for the government to deliver records on its own Open Government Directive."
What goes unmentioned:
97% of the millions of denied FoIA requests that make up this statistic were requests for Obama's birth certificate.
Bullshit.

You're giving attention and ad revenue to a political operative.

Wow! What cogent reasoning. Let me add my counterpoint:
Your mother wears combat boots.
Haha! Now that I have totally demolished your argument, what will you do?
Seriously, though, how is linking to Breitbart and not the AP story NOT giving money and attention to Breitbart?

That's easy enough to avoid. Just prefix your post with "I know I'll get modded down for this, but..."

I'm so glad you took that in the humorous light in which it was intended. :)
