And that's out of how many requested in each year?

Just to get this straight, you're contending that this is a matter of deliberate policy by Obama in direct contravention of all of his public statements and his official memorandums on the subject? Like, there was a "wink, nudge" in there? He met them over coffee and said, "I just published that memo to look good, I actually want you to deny more requests"? What's your allegation, exactly?

Both of your links emphasize that Obama has published regulations instructing the agencies to grant more FOIA requests than they were previously, but that the agencies are struggling with the implementation. Just going to restate that one more time.

I don't see where he's saying that. Where does the buck stop, anyway? Does Obama get a pass because he's an ineffectual leader, a gold star for trying?
