Reply #275: waiting for the other shoe to drop.

I'm going to take a neutral stance on this issue until the CREW lawsuit is over with.

While I agree with most posters that the logs should be open to some degree (we need to know if special interests group members are visiting, but not Mrs. Obama's sister or a relative), recent violent acts by right wing fascists and Operation Rescue members may be what's forcing the Secret Service's hand.

I wouldn't put it past Glenn Beck to publicize the list of visitors, and then some Republican scumbag showing up at the door of a visitor with a sawed-off shotgun. This is how these people roll.

Nonetheless, if you can't wait for the courts to strike this down again, you can always grab a good telephoto lens or binoculars and stand outside the white house and see who's coming in and out. Why wait on Obama to do the right thing, if this is so important to you?
