Mooie actie van Barack:

Obama also ordered far more transparency and far tighter standards on the way lobbying is carried out in Washington. He banned any member of his administration from accepting any lobbying job while the administration is still in power. He banned any member of his administration from accepting any gifts at all from lobbyists. He banned all administration appointees from being able to work on policy issues that could affect their former bosses or clients for a minimum of two years.

nog zo mooie actie van Barack:

New US president Barack Obama has ordered government agencies to release more information under that country's Freedom of Information Act, reversing the previous administration's policy of withholding information.

The US president has ordered government departments and agencies to presume that information should be released to FOI requesters.

Ik heb nooit zo behoefte gehad aan een onderzoek naar de besluitvorming van de Nederlandse Regering om politieke en militaire steun aan de oorlog in Irak gehad. Ik heb ook nooit zo veel behoefte gehad aan enig onderzoek naar misstanden gemaakt tijdens de Clinton periode.

This move marks a particularly striking contrast with the way Bush and Clinton senior administration officials operated. After he left office, Clinton's second national security adviser, Sandy Berger, illegally removed and destroyed hundreds of confidential documents from the National Archives pertaining to crucial security issues. He got away with a mere $50,000 fine.

Ben wel benieuwd of de nieuwe orders van Obama ook met terugwerkende kracht zullen gaan werken. Ik ben wel benieuwd hoe gemeen die Cheney nu eigenlijk was
