Barack Obama actually said...

"the situation in or in relation to Cote d'Ivoire continues to pose an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security and foreign policy of the United States."

"To the extent permitted by law, there should be transparency in the preparation, identification, and use of scientific and technological information in policymaking."

"Public engagement enhances the Government's effectiveness and improves the quality of its decisions."

"Government should be participatory."
