Below is writer Christine Brim's follow-up report with a letter she received from the suits at USDA:

"To enhance our effectiveness in reaching those in need of USDA’s services, we continue to meet with a broad range of leaders and organizations to explain what services USDA provides to the American people and ways in which we can strengthen our outreach efforts. We have met with leaders from a number of groups representing underserved communities as well as a number of faith-based organizations such as Bread for the World, Cooperative Baptist Fellowship, and Mazon: A Jewish Response to Hunger. These meetings are not open to press."
"Thanks for writing and have a nice day!"
Back in the 1970s and 80s, when I was working overseas for DEA, no other non-State Dept.government agency had more people stationed in US embassies and consulates than USDA. From what I could gather from them at the cocktail parties, a lot of their work entailed convincing foreign governments to buy US-produced bull semen.
My, how they have come up in the world since then.
What ever happened to all that openness and transparency Obama promised us when he walked into the White House?

Is there some connection between the different sentences in this article?
Or are you merely assembling a random series of word constructs which insinuate that there must be something wrong with the current administration?
I don't insinuate anything. I am mocking the unkept promise of transparency within the Obama admin.
But you haven't said anything informative, factual, or conclusive. All you've done is ask vague questions which may or may not have answers conducive to your premise. This is the essence of prejudice: pre - judice, to decide before judgement is exercised.
Siarlys,
Did you read a different posting? Brim wrote a letter to USDA and asked questions about these groups who met at the WH and are apply for funds. I posted the non-answer she got. Do you think that is transparency? Did you read Brim's article?
I don't think much of it at all. It's not even a molehill to make a mountain out of. Maybe a few grains of sand, blowing in the wind.
That's pretty much what the OJ jurors had to say.
No, the OJ jurors said "This is a murder case, not a wife-beating case." I heard them, on TV. I thought OJ and Mark Furman should have been sentenced to spend the rest of their lives sharing a small efficiency apartment.
