The Book of Secrets is a Fiction Because… (or, what was the First, Highest Priority on Obama’s first day as President?)
Think the Presidential ‘Book of Secrets’ depicted in the movie ‘National Treasure II‘ was too far-fetched? Perhaps the movie just didn’t go far enough to explain that in addition to alien abductions and the answers to half the conspiracy theories ever concocted — there are personal secrets of our Presidents that are protected by the same legal barriers.
The Presidential Records Act (PRA) of 1978…
…was further defined by Executive Order 12667, by Ronald Reagan, on January 18, 1989.
…which was revoked and replaced by Executive Order 13233, by President George Walker Bush, on November 1, 2001.
…which was revoked and replaced by Executive Order 13489, by President Barack Hussein Obama, on January 21, 2009. (He was inaugurated the day before, on January 20, 2009).
Never mind all the campaign speeches in which he told throngs of Believers that on his first day in office, he would do their bidding before anything else. Instead, the Icon of Change first did what every politician since the beginning of time has done — he covered his own ass.
