What's "good" for the Republican, isn't required of the Democrat . . .

The Democrats are after the Repulican presidential candidate to present his tax returns for more than the one year he has already provided. Interesting request because if there was something amiss in the returns, it would have come to light when he was vetted for possibly being the running mate for McCain in the 2008 election.

Yet, in spite of all the requests being made of the Republicans, there are still a number of items the country as a whole would like to know from the Democrats and they are not being very forthcoming and, as usual, the media is of no help.

  • Fast and Furious documents. Obama used executive privilege to save AG Eric Holder's behind.
  • Health reform negotiations. Obama made back-room deals worth millions with lobbyists and legislators.
  • FOIA requests. Obama is "the worst" at complying with Freedom of Information Act requests.
  • Real White House guest list. Many visits are secret. Met with lobbyists off-site.
  • Rashid Khalidi tape. Obama attended a 2003 party for Rashid Khalidi in which a lot of anti-Israel rhetoric was featured. Nobody is releasing the tape. LA Times story.
  • Small dollar donors. Obama refused to release names of contributors who donated less than $200 even though he's accused of receiving illegal foreign contributions. McCain did this in 2008, why couldn't Obama?
  • Medical records. John McCain released thousands of pages of medical records. All Obama released was a one-page doctor's note even though he has a history of drug abuse and smoking.
  • Book proposal. Obama's literary agent said he was "born in Kenya". Why hasn't anybody released the original book proposal.
  • Academic transcripts. Can Obama prove his merit?
  • State senate papers. Obama never produced any papers from his eight years as a state senator. He says "they could have been thrown out."
