Why do you think they were NOT allowed to make copies of unclassified info?
And, so are you sir/madam.

Obama Speaks... - YouTube


President Obama, what are you hiding in these tapes, errr... emails.
Nothing President Obama does will satisfy conservatives.

conservatives had those emails months ago. ABC didn't read the emails. conservatives lied about the emails and there still is no scandal.

conservatives have no shame, there were dozens of embassies and consulates attacked around the world when GWB was President and Democrats didn't attempt to attack GWB over one of those incidents.

Yet, conservatives have stooped to lying and making stuff up about Benghazi, things that have been refuted by Military Leaders, Petreaus, and the CIA.

conservatives in June of last year were howling and demanding that military leaks be investigated. They wanted an independent special prosecutor named to investigate these leaks.

I wouldn't put it past this administration to have doctored the emails, sent them to the republicans, then came out with the "original" ones crying to the press "see what the republicans did!!!!". I mean, it certainly wouldn't be below them to do something like that.

No, stop. Top secret exchanges aren't done through emails like that. Everything on those email servers where they communicate is subject to FOIA. Stop with the maddening lies already.

Release the Tapes!

As our president says, those that aren't transparent have something to hide.

How? I know what I heard and repeated it.

"Chaffetz said that the State Department would allow congressional investigators to read the emails only under the watchful eye of executive branch personnel — the investigators could not copy the documents for their private review."

Like most of us with a brain, could not see thru this crap. Anyone person who excuses these latest scandals by THIS WH, are dispicable, in not wanting to find out the truth. Save the bull.

When one entity's power to be is so very strong, and convincing it is the kind of power, that can come back and kick you in the ass!

When you feel your above the laws, you get a nice hard blow.

Honestly who cares? I mean, the only reason that this is even a vaguely big deal is because the GOP was running out of things to say to try and help Romney win the presidency so they decided to say that Obama knew about the attacks on the consulate and supported terrorism. This is a complete non-issue and the country should just move on already because we have bigger issues to deal with.

Go on, you can admit it. We all know it anyway.
I really think that ~ we need a few more hearings. Who's with me?

Yes, absolutely. More hearings are needed on this. And hopefully, umbrella usage can be included in the same hearings.
