Benghazi Review Board To Issa: Talk To Us In Public, Not In Private

Ambassador Thomas Pickering and former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs Michael Mullen are refusing a request from Rep. Darrel Issa to meet in private, preferring a public airing.
 

Thomas Pickering and Michael Mullen called the proposed closed-door proceeding an “inappropriate precondition” to their testifying before the committee in a letter sent Thursday to Issa, the chairman of the House Oversight panel. The letter was made public by the State Department.
 
“In the past week members of your Committee have publicly criticized – in both an open hearing and in the media – the work of the Accountability Review Board ,” the retired diplomat and the former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff wrote. “Having taken liberal license to call into question the Board’s work, it is surprising that you now maintain that members of the Committee need a closed-door proceeding before being able to ask ‘informed questions’ at a public hearing.”

yeah thats why he wants them in private    The reason he wants to talk in private is because he knows what they are going to say, and it will look bad for him,if they prove Obama was not part of a cover-up .  or as you say he didn't want to hurt their feelings

No retard, Hicks also had a private meeting.  Issa wants a transcribed meeting so that the full committee can prepare questions for the public meeting - and that's not uncommon.

As usual, your dumb Canadian ass doesn't have the facts.

cover up what

Issa's primary charge seems to be that he believes act of terror” is not the same as “terrorist attack.”

No, Obama didn't.  But clearly, he needs to clean house at a high level.  He's 'barely' done that and he needs to do it aggressively.
