Under Wraps
(Fox News) - The Obama administration prides itself on transparency. But the Politico newspaper reports that since taking office, President Obama has issued three executive orders, a presidential memorandum, a presidential notice and a proclamation -- all unannounced by the White House press office and not posted to the White House Web site.
The moves came to light only after the official paperwork was transmitted to the federal register, a daily log of formal notices compiled by the national archives.
A White House spokesman, Ben Labolt, says, "this is a simple oversight... this is a non-story -- the documents are posted on the Web site."
