White House Visitors Logs Full of Gaps (video)



The promised transparency of the Obama White House seems...Swiss-cheese-like with a Cheney tinge when it comes to who met with the president on key issues at key times within the environs of the people's White House, and the "junior aide" ploy seems a ruse meant to confuse.

Can anyone be surprised?

Candace Gingrich's letter to Newt

Now this letter from Candace to her political dinosaur of a brother Newt is priceless. Ordinarily I don't read other people's mail but she did publish it so I suspect it's okay to peruse.

(Who would name a tiny, defenseless infant 'Newt' anyway? Zeeks!)

Through the years, every time I heard Newt Gingrich spout that he was "from Georgia" I cringed. Some of my ancestors arrived in early Georgia from Virginia prior to the Revolution, others just after, and a few of them were already here, thank you.

"From Georgia"? Puh-leease! This native Georgian doesn't claim him.

And ethically challenged Gingrich has never apologized for his 'Contract With America' which has turned out to be more of a Contract On America, as many people have remarked.

If you think the last 20+ years have been about the Gingrich promise of 'transparency' in government you undoubtedly need a stronger pair of spectacles, Sparkie!

One of Candace's points is that the world has passed her brother by and that even geezers are on to his brand of political tactics. Well, if America has a dreg of good fortune left to her at all, it shall be so.

Therefore, I heartily thank Candace Gingrich for sharing her sentiments for all to read! Wonder if Newt has read it yet?
