Latest Batch Of White House Visitors: 450k Names Now Online

It's that time again! The Obama administration released its latest batch of visitors to the White House grounds, from tourists to executives who huddled privately with the president.

This group of visitors logs covers the month of March. Take a gander, the administration has gone back to the easy to use Socrata format that allows you to search and manipulate the data.

1. Except for the, you know, coffee shop names...

3. Oh, those meetings that took place publicly? Seems it's no

big secret if those secret meetings were held at a public place.

[EFerrari]

8. Right. Because our heroic media is supposed to be at every hole that sells coffee in DC

to cover the White House.

Ridiculous.

[babylonsister]

9. Hey, I'm not making it an issue. Those that are are ridiculous.

Try attacking them instead of me.

[EFerrari]

10. So you didn't just say that because meetings are held in a public place

they're transparent?

Okay.

11. I was responding to the first post here, even though it

really had nothing to do with the OP. Go make mountains out of molehills with someone else. :hi:

5. Well played red herring.

Ace.

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

7. "Obama releases names of unrelated coffee shop customers."

"Critics complain of unprecedented big brother snooping in private businesses"

[SunsetDreams]

2. But...But sister, it only covers March,

what are they hiding? I want to know who was there April, May, and June!!

[AtomicKitten]

4. What about July and August? What are they preemptively hiding?

:P

[jefferson_dem]

6. But they didn't provide a comprehensive list of their movie rentals (including PPVs)?

:grr:

That's definitely not "Chains I can believe in"!

[vaberella]

12. I remember when this was complained about a lot. No one seemed to care for the past year though. n/t

[babylonsister]

13. People complained because idiot son and darth didn't want

to release the visitor's lists. Now that they're being released, there's nothing to complain about (well, at least for most of us;)).
