regardless of the RATs obvious ploy here, i think if a senate committee requests some documents they should be given them, what's the big deal?

if the whitehouse gives them the papers, then they can vote, problem solved.

From what I understand, the stuff they're demanding is mostly internal memos, inter office correspondence, etc., much of which is highly classified. There's also precedent involved, with the Senate looking once again to limit just what the Executive Branch can and cannot do.

Besides, even if the requested documents are given to the Senate, the Rats will just come up with another excuse to stall.

I think if the White House requests some private documents from senate committee minority members so the White House can fully understand the committee's objections as stated by minority committee members in these private communications. They should hand these private communications over to the White house, what's the big deal?

if the whitehouse gives them the papers, then they can vote, problem solved.

If the senate minority members gives the White House their private papers the White House will understand the reasoning behind the minority objections, in turn give them the White House papers, then they can vote, problem solved.
