What’s Obama up to?

So it’s been about three days since the beginning of the Obama Administration. Just what has our new commander in chief been up to? Oh not much, just:

• Restoring transparency to the White House by revoking Bush’s limitations on the Freedom of Information Act (money quote: “A democracy requires accountability, and accountability requires transparency… The Freedom of Information Act should be administered with a clear presumption: In the face of doubt, openness prevails.”)
• Establishing new ethics standards for staff members and lobbyists
• Closing the Guantanamo Bay detention facility
• Ending the despicable and illegal use of torture by the United States

Wow, that’s not bad! All these steps in the right direction, not the kind of thing I’m accustomed to. It’s not even the weekend yet.
