Secretive Romney is Tightlipped, Secretive

Ooooooo.

The Republican presidential candidate refuses to identify his biggest donors who "bundle" money for his campaign. He often declines to say who's meeting with him or what he's doing for hours at a time. He puts limits on media access to his fundraisers. And he resists releasing all of his tax returns, making just a single year public after facing pressure to do so.

-----------snip-----------------------

Not that Obama has been totally open, either.

Oh, no? "Not...totally open?" The article goes on to insinuate that while Obama restricts access to information, he has his reasons. Somehow Romney is more sinister about it.

Let's consult the Wayback Machine, since reporters do not care to do any actual work anymore. Nor do they have any personal memories of 2008 other than of following their heartthrob breathlessly around the country and writing "Mrs. Gregory Christina Obama" in lipstick on their hotel mirrors.

Democratic National Convention, 2008. Colorado. ABC reporters are on a public sidewalk watching who is going to meet Obama.

DENVER -- Police in Denver arrested an ABC News producer today as he and a camera crew were attempting to take pictures on a public sidewalk of Democratic senators and VIP donors leaving a private meeting at the Brown Palace Hotel.

Police on the scene refused to tell ABC lawyers the charges against the producer, Asa Eslocker, who works with the ABC News investigative unit.

This is what happens to reporters who want to know who Obama's big donors are.

And THIS is what happens to Romney's big donors, when Obama identifies them to his deranged fanbase and the MBM (but I repeat myself).

I certainly can't imagine why Romney isn't hurling all his files open for media perusal. Very mysterious.

Let's talk about what is, and is not sinister, now, please. PLEASE. We have a lot to say on that front lately.

Thanks to Skinbad.
