Via The Hill:
House Democratic leaders on Wednesday blasted Speaker John Boehner’s blueprint for a select committee to investigate the deadly attacks on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya, on Sept. 11, 2012.
In a letter to Boehner (R-Ohio), Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and Minority Whip Steny Hoyer (D-Md.) decried what they called “extreme and counter-productive partisanship” underlying the Republican investigations into the tragedy to date, and denounced the new special committee as more of the same.
“More than a new chairman is needed to correct the obvious deficiencies in this partisan Republican oversight,” the Democrats wrote. “What is needed is a fundamentally different approach.”
Pelosi and Hoyer suggested the blueprint sets the stage for a partisan witch hunt designed only to embarrass the Obama administration ahead of November’s elections. […]
“Another partisan review that serves only to politicize these attacks is disrespectful and unworthy of the American people.”
