What's Obama Hiding? (Nicholas Ciarelli, 2/11/09, Daily Beast)

"It really has to make you question the sincerity of their promise about greater transparency," says Ellen Miller, executive director of the Sunlight Foundation, a nonpartisan group that looks for technological ways to improve government transparency. "I know there's a lot going on, and I'm willing to cut the administration some slack on this for a little while, but at some point you have to hold the president's feet to the fire, and I think this is the time."

Transparency advocates have been exchanging a flurry of worried emails, and are frustrated that the president has so far failed to keep such a simple promise, says Sean Moulton, director of federal-information policy for OMB Watch, an open-government advocacy group. "This was a commitment made by the administration—it was very clearly defined," Moulton says. "If they can't follow through on that, especially when it's such an easy thing to do, we start to get concerned, with so many other things they're working on, that they'll miss the easy shots."
