Half True (work won't begin until Oct 2011, a year and a half from now)

PolitiFact: Obama incorrect on lobbyist policy
- Obama says lobbyists excluded from policy jobs, but we found four
Verdict: False

PolitiFact: Releasing White House visitor logs
- Obama says White House visitor logs released for the first time
Verdict: Mostly True (Isn't mostly true in this situation another way of saying partially false? If they're not releasing all of them, doesn't that defeat the purpose?)
