Take a gander at these articles and try to keep in mind that the Obama administration is the Most Transparentest Administration EVAR.

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
How many scalps would be taken, and how many sacrifices would be demanded, had the “other side” done that? Why isn’t there a demand for a study, formal investigation, and a prosecutor to handle the kidnapping charge?
I love watching this kind of thing. Train wrecks were always fascinating to me.
They were protecting the reporter, it was bad enough that the reporter got the short end of the stick and got stuck as pool reporter listening to a Biden speech, imagine how horrible it would have been to have to listen to small talk from Biden fundraisers. I would have locked myself in the closet and would have had to been dragged kicking and screaming to listen to any of those people.
What would have happened if Geo. Bush had been in office?
I think its high time we let reporters out of the closet.
Of course, any American taken prisoner by the enemy has a duty to escape.
Is there an escape kit that gets household locked doors open that you can hide on your self and get past a Secret Service search?
Id like to see more about this story. Sounds like criminal wrongful imprisonment and the aide should actually go to prison if they did this on purpose.
Oops I should have gone to the end of the story, rather than reading the misleading article titles. He was placed in a storage room, that may have been locked by accident. It is common for reporters to wait in rooms, just not a storage room. Somehow I suspect this “closet” was bigger than my apartment. The reporter accepted the apology, and the story is really not a big deal.
If the other side did this, there would not have been a story in the first place. A republican VP has to shoot someone in the face to get in the news and out of the bunker for a while. (And in that case, the guy shot in the face actually said sorry to Cheney!)
