Obama Hiding Unclassified Iran Documents

by JASmius



Whaffor?  Was he too lazy to have them classified?  We already know why he's hiding them, after all:

The Daily Beast reports a cache of eighteen documents is sitting in Sensitive Compartmentalized Information Facilities (SCIFs) in the U.S. Capitol complex. Seventeen of the documents, however, are unclassified — which raises the question of why they are being stored in containers normally reserved for classified information.

Because O doesn't want Congress or the public to see them, because they may contain even more outrageous betrayals than even we suspect.  Duh.

The administration gave the eighteen documents to Congress on July 19th, and the legislative body is now tasked with reviewing them before it either approves or denies the landmark deal.

After which, in the highly unlikely event of the latter, it will therefore impose anyway.

The seventeen unclassified documents, however, do require a security clearance to view, reports the Daily Beast.

The arrangement of placing classified and unclassified documents together has confused lawmakers and staffers on Capitol Hill.

Also doubtless part of the White House's intent.

"The unclassified items … should be public. This is going to be the most important foreign policy decision that this Congress will make," a Republican Senate aide told the Daily Beast. "This is the administration that once said it would be the most transparent administration in history. They're not acting like it."

And undoubtedly with good reason, from their point of view.

Said another senior Republican congressional staffer, "Many in Congress view the administration's tactic of co-mingling unclassified documents with classified documents and requiring congressional staffers to have secret clearances just to view certain unclassified documents as an attempt by the administration to limit open debate."

No!  The hell you say!  They'd NEVER do anything like THAT!  Why, an administration like that would might do anything!  Like betray Israel via a secret U.S.-Iranian military alliance, or ship the mullahs our nuclear arsenal, or formally establish Shiite Islam as our national religion as Obama's first post-coup de tat royal decree.  Good thing all of that is beyond the realm of possibility, huh?

In other words, those eighteen documents don't concern us.  We don't need to see or read them.  They're none of our business.

Trust Obama.

Hey, "we" elected him twice, didn't we?
