WASHINGTON (AP) -- Republican senators are demanding that the Obama administration make public the surveillance video taken during last month's deadly attack on the U.S. Consulate in Libya, which killed the U.S. ambassador and three other Americans.
Sens. John McCain, Lindsey Graham and Kelly Ayotte wrote to President Barack Obama's defense secretary, CIA director and attorney general demanding that the video be declassified.
In the run-up to the presidential election, Republicans have accused the Obama administration of distorting the account of the attack on Sept. 11 that killed Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans. Officials first blamed it on a mob set into motion by an anti-Islamic film. Obama administration officials have pointed to U.S. intelligence reports that showed conflicting information. Administration officials did not respond to requests for comment.

When you see these 2 names Sens. John McCain, Lindsey Graham individually let alone together, you know absolutely nothing will get done. They protect the left more than the left does ...
Ping!
They’ll hand it over... after the election, just like everything else!
I’m honestly surprised that the AP even covered it.
A lot more is learned than when you demandedly say "pretty please"
Then why even bother to do it? I’m sure you’ll say posturing, but I don’t think they gain much from it.
Yep.
Whatever happened to, “The American public has the right to know.”? I want to see it.
Oh, sure, this from McLame who promised we didn't have to be afraid of Obama. We wouldn't be in this situation and four families wouldn't be having to bury their loved ones if the Senate had had the guts to demand the usurper's records 4.5 years ago.

Very true.
You’ll get your chance...with a 14-minute gap.
I am certainly not a fan of McCain, but I do believe he understands the magnitude of this, and I think he will do what is necessary.

It mollify the Right that some ones (our betters) seemed to be doing something.
Actually all it did is buy more time for Obama till after the election.
Keep doing it. Romney needs to say it and run TV ads or the MSM will ignore
You and I both know that IS going to happen.
to control the investigation... duh
The State Department, the Pentagon, and a bunch of other departments in dc have the same information and video that the Republicans are asking for. This is just a bunch of political grandstanding. Who are these elected Republicans? People who didn’t have the courage to wear the uniform or put their lives on the line for this country. Grandstanding, to make themselves look “interested”.
ooopS I see it’s cmclaim and grandham gimmee asking the wh for this...OH ME...yep, they’ll get it. Yeah, sure. How about going to the real sources for the real information and not the grandstanding ones.
