Bush just told a boldface lie about our country being "transparent"

[hector459]

Holding prisoners and never telling them what they are charged with is tranparent government?

Planting a fake journalist in the WH Press room is transparent government?

Witholding documents on how energy policy is formulated is transparent?

Lying about the costs of new Medicare policy is transparent government?

What we have in America is government by "deception."

If lying makes a government or democracy "tansparent" then I guess maybe Bush is right.

13. like on WMD's.... or the lies by Colin Powell or Condi..... pure BS

2. Some people don't know the difference between

transparent, translucent, and opaque.

Maybe Bush meant to say our government is opaque.

4. Saw it on CNN

Yeah. The Russian journalist who asked the question is gonna lose his accreditation. Did you catch what he said at the end of the question? Something like "Would you two gentlemen comment on this, or are you just going to shake hands and be friendly with each other?" What a guy.

[wryter2000]

10. Maybe what he meant

Maybe he meant, "I'm easy to see through."

[Mutley]

11. what he must mean by 'transparent'...

is that his lies are so transparent that anyone in the world with half a brain can see straight through them...

[cthrumatrix]

12. I couldn't believe the BULLSHIT he was spouting ..... we are in serious

trouble .... our freedom of the press has been sold to the highest bidder.

[Auntie Bush]
