Pelosi: Boehner's Rules for Benghazi Select Committee 'Unfair'
Breitbart ^ | 5/9/14 | Kerry Picket

Posted on 05/09/2014 5:43:01 PM PDT by Nachum

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi sent a letter to House Speaker John Boehner Friday reiterating a request from a previous letter for a “minimum standard” for Democrats to proceed with a bipartisan investigation into the 2012 terrorist attack on the U.S. Consulate and CIA annex in Benghazi, Libya.

“In that letter, we asked that Democrats have a real voice on the committee, including on (1) the issuance of subpoenas, (2) the manner in which witnesses would be questioned and deposed, and (3) the specific protocols governing how documents and other information would be obtained, used, and potentially released by the committee,” Pelosi wrote.

Pelosi noted in her letter to Boehner that while he suggested Wednesday that both meet “to find a path forward” and that their staffs meet in advance to work out preliminary issues, the proposed Memorandum of Understanding from Boehner’s staff was not acceptable to House Leadership after it was reviewed Thursday.

“Regrettably, the proposal does not prevent the unacceptable and repeated abuses committed by Chairman Issa in any meaningful way, and we find it fundamentally unfair,” Pelosi wrote.

Breitbart News sent an inquiry to Boehner’s office as well as called for a response to Pelosi’s letter and did not receive a statement.

Next, she’ll roll on the ground screaming and kicking her legs and pounding her fists. Hey college Democrats! How mature do the Democrats look to you now?

Unfair is hiding in a bomb proof room as your building burns, unfair is painting targets with drones overhead and being blown off a roof.

I’m sure Pelosi’s husband is very generous with campaign contributions to keep her in DC, while the man hides out at the Vineyard (CA?)....That is what he calls fair. The rest of us have to deal with her ‘unfairness’. I believe Pelosi and Reid are soul mates, she married the wrong guy...lol

What a whiner! Hey Nancy, shouldn’t you be home spending more time with the family or your money or poetry or something. The adults in this country sure could use a break from your s**tty diapers.

What kind of agreements did previous select committees operate under?

Iirc the Republicans on the Iran-Contra Committee didn’t have the kinds of privs that Pelosi’s demanding, did they? That’s the standard I’d abide by ...

Libs.

A Snail Darter is to be protected, but children who survive an abortion can desperately swim in toilets trying to get out and it’s a woman’s “right” to put them there.

You haven’t the right to say what’s “fair”, Nancy.

When the collapse comes and Democrats are running through the streets chased by angry mobs of liberals demanding their free sXit, I’m not gonna cry. And we won’t have to lift a finger.
