Dems likely to join Benghazi probe
By Mike Lillis - 05/21/14 11:26 AM EDT
House Democrats are "leaning toward" participating in the Republicans' special investigation into the deadly Benghazi attacks of 2012.
Party leaders have been mulling a boycott of the special committee over concerns that Republicans intend to use the investigation to attack the White House ahead of November's elections.
But a senior Democratic aide said Wednesday that, while the decision is not final, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) "is now leaning toward appointing a full complement of Members to the Select Committee on Benghazi."

I'm sure she'll appoint the most objective, diligent, discrete, least politically-motivated democrats she can find. :silly:

Sure. She made her point (to her base) that the Committee will be politically motivated and the non-political Democrats shouldn't participate in such chicanery. Now though, in the interest of the Nation, she will get in. :thud:
