What part of "highly classified" is giving you trouble?
The commission investigating the Sept. 11 terror attacks said on Thursday that its deal with the White House for access to highly classified Oval Office intelligence reports would let the White House edit the documents before they were released to the commission's representatives.
...While spokesmen for panel refused again to provide the terms, citing the sensitivity of the talks with the White House, its executive director acknowledged that the White House would be able to remove information from the reports unrelated to Al Qaeda and to the attacks on Sept. 11, 2001.
"An entire P.D.B. will have articles about China, South Africa, Venezuela," the executive director, Philip D. Zelikow, said in an interview. "The notion that the commission should want to read P.D.B. articles that have nothing to do with Al Qaeda would be a novel suggestion. The commission has not asked to see the country's most sensitive intelligence information on China or North Korea."
Aren't you some of the same people who screamed until their eardrums bled about the horrible U.S. security breach of "outing" a CIA agent? A bit selective about national security, aren't we?
As is made obvious by the Democrat quotes in the NYT article, this is a Democratic fishing expedition, and they aren't kidding anyone. And if you think Democrats won't spill secret information for political advantage, I've got a bridge to sell you.
