Backsliding…

The new Obama administration White House website is very snazzy, and apparently done by the same folks who designed his campaign website. I can’t help but feel a little disappointed, though. One of the things I loved most about the Bush website was the easy availability of press briefings. Transcripts were available almost as soon as the briefing was finished. By contrast, the Obama website has nothing, yet. Maybe that will change.

Anyway, to business: Gibbs’ response regarding drone attacks on Waziristan/Pakistan:

Q Exactly. There is skepticism among Republicans whether or not this could happen. What kind of reassurances is he giving? Then, on Pakistan, was he consulted before the strike, or did he consult with Pakistan on that?

MR. GIBBS: Well, let me take your Pakistan question first. As you know, I’m not going to comment on those matters.

What the fuck? If this is “transparent”, I’m going to go replace my windshield glass with corrugated cardboard.*


* I just realized I don’t have a windshield glass!
No, it wasn’t stolen. I don’t have a car.
No, my car wasn’t stolen. I never bought one.


There is currently one response to “Backsliding…”
