Today Fox News reported the White House appeared to changing its tone regarding oversight of the 2010 Census.
Washington was in a fury over recent comments by White House officials suggesting the Census Chief would report directly to Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel. But here are more recent comments, which seem to suggest a subtle change of tone:
"The president wants to ensure that the census conducts a fair and accurate count. The census director will report to the commerce secretary," White House spokesman Benjamin La Bolt said in a statement.
"Like in every census under Democratic or Republican administrations there will be interest in Congress and at the White House in this national priority," La Bolt added.
