White House visitor logs
Over the Thanksgiving Holiday (i.e., when media are less likely to pick up a story), the White House released its visitor logs.
Sarah (K.) Brady visited on September 23, 2009 (No. 180485), with two other people. She visited again on March 30 of this year. Paul Helmke of Brady Campaign likewise visited on March 30 for the same meeting. One of these visits is labeled "group tour." Considering that Brady Campaign endorsed the guy who is living there, this is not a lot of access...

Thanks for posting this item of anecdotal interest and putting it into useful context too. I had not seen this info anywhere else. This kind of thing (along with your heavy coverage of Fast & Furious) makes your blog a go-to source of knowledge every day. Keep up the good work, Hardy.
Although it should be noted that on the rare? occasions they want to hide this sort of thing White House staffers have taken to setting up meetings in a nearby building that doesn't maintain logs.
Not that this Administration seems to care a lot, e.g. compare to various of the usual suspects that have had very frequent logged visits like Andy Stern back when he was the head of the SEUI. These sound like the absolute minimum the Administration could get away with (Obama, at least, "gets it" that this issue is a political loser and he's not a cultural baby boomer, he just doesn't seem to care that much about these sorts of issues that e.g. the Clintons obsess over).
