Obama Administration obfuscates on transparency

Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner opposes transparency. But now his opposition to transparency is being seen in The White House.

Reported by Tabassum Zakaria:

WASHINGTON, April 15 (Reuters) - The U.S. government will release some results of its bank stress tests in May as it tries to diagnose problems and stabilize the ailing banking sector, the White House said on Wednesday...

"Early in May, you will see in a systematic and coordinated way the transparency of determining and showing to all involved some of the results of these stress tests," White House spokesman Robert Gibbs said.

Huh? Transparency? Sounds to me more like obfuscation and bloviation.

Under the enlightened Obama regime, America will replace the antiquated English language with a proper multicultural tongue for all Americans to use and enjoy
