White House Press Secretary Jay Carney derided a reporter today for asking whether President Obama would release his college records in the campaign, to serve as an example of transparency.

"This is the Donald Trump question," said Carney referring the reporter to the Obama campaign.

"This is preposterous," Carney continued. "This is from the guy who insisted that the president wasn't born in the United States."

Carney reiterated that Obama was an “open book” and had an "extremely sound" record of transparency.
