Vice-President Joe Biden is having a meeting with a government transparency official today but the meeting is closed.    I hope Joe Biden does not hate irony.

The Recovery Accountability and Transparency Board is run by Earl Devaney and its purpose is to monitor the use of taxpayer stimulus money and ensure that the taxpayers know all about where it is being used and...oh, forget it, if you don't get why it's funny that the meeting is closed by now, you never will.
