Rice won't release requested Bolton files

WASHINGTON — The State Department is refusing to make public internal documents sought by Senate Democrats in their attempt to gain more information about repeated clashes between John R. Bolton and U.S. intelligence agencies over Syria, administration officials say. In rejecting the request, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice has said that the information involves "internal deliberations" and that their disclosure could have a chilling effect on debates within the administration. The Senate Foreign Relations Committee is evaluating the administration's nomination of Bolton to be the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations. The decision by Rice prompted a protest from Sen. Joseph R. Biden Jr. of Delaware, the top Democrat on the panel, who described the move as a lack of cooperation.

1. Isn't that obstruction of congress (on Condi's part)?

...or does that not apply when only the minority party wants facts?

2. It sure looks like obstructionism to me

Who cares if it causes internal power struggles in the White House? It's not our problem!

These people are blatantly hiding key information that, if released publicly, would ensure Bolton is not nominated.

The media lets us down again.
