White House to give senators Benghazi documents
By KIMBERLY DOZIER
AP Intelligence Writer

WASHINGTON (AP) -- The White House has agreed to give the Senate Intelligence Committee documents related to the attack on a U.S. diplomatic mission in Benghazi, Libya, a congressional aide said Friday.

Republicans had demanded the documents as a condition of voting on the nomination of John Brennan to be CIA director.

The documents include emails between top national security officials showing the debate within the administration over how to describe the attack and other documents the committee had been asking for, the aide said. He spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to discuss the matter publicly.

The White House has said it has already turned over more than 10,000 pages of Benghazi-related documents, along with witness interviews, staff briefings and hours of testimony.

1. President Obama ropes the dopes again.

It is amazing how easy it is to rope those dopes.

President Obama wins each and every time.

(to use the example, President Obama is Charlie Brown knowingly letting Lucy think she is getting the better of him, and he let's her think that. But the game/set/match is always Charlie Brown, and as anyone knows, there would be no Peanuts without Charlie Brown,
and Charlie Brown(as witness by the Christmas Tree he purchased) also always saw things 10 steps ahead. Charlie is the star player after all.

And the republicans are always the dopes he ropes.

And all the nation sees is that the republicans obstruct each and every step of the way,
and they are obstructing two of their own people.
The nation is not stupid, and it will be the Democratic party that wins back the house and holds the senate, and soon the SCOTUS will turn in the democratic party favor.

The protests called for by the internet Imam when SOMEONE sent him that stupid muslim hate movie, that SOMEONE subtitled in hate crap.

Those protests at all of the usa consulate locations muddied the waters considerably for our security system.

Our Gov. needs to find out WHO, paid for promoted and sent that video, WHO sub-titled it and the timing of 2 days before 9-11 is very suspicious. Who sent that video to the Imam?

I think we have treason going on and it's not coming from the white house.

Of Iraq. We need to investigate why the bin Laden family in the US at the time of the 9/11 attacks was given clearance to exit the US when flying was prohibited. Maybe because of the Bush/bin Laden family connection.
