What happened to Obama’s most transparent administration in history?

From the NY Post:

The $328,835 snapshots of an Air Force One backup plane buzzing lower Manhattan last week will not be shown to the public, the White House said yesterday.

“We have no plans to release them,” an aide to President Obama told The Post, refusing to comment further.

The sole purpose of the secret photo-op, which sent thousands of New Yorkers running for cover, was to take new publicity shots of the presidential jet over the city.

“The photos . . . are classified — that’s ridiculous,” Councilman Peter Vallone Jr., said.

The photos have not technically been “classified,” a White House aide said, but they are being kept from public view.

Remember the good ole days when Obama promised to deliver the most transparent administration in history?

So here we have admitedly unclassified pictures taken during a photo op (probably for some taxpayer funded campaign propaganda) and Obama won’t release them to the public.  Oh, I’m so disillusioned!

    You ain’t seen nothing yet! Obama fooled so many unhappy and frustrated Americans with his “bait and switch” method. He is a great speaker – I will give him that and his timing was great. There are more of these absurdities to come. Of course, those die-hard Obamanics will never admit their President and his administration will do anything wrong.
