They can redact like the others. They can release to congressmen who have that clearance but not to the media.
What is Obama hiding?
RELEASE THE TAPES. RELEASE THE TAPES. RELEASE THE TAPES!
The problems with that is congress-persons cannot be trusted to keep from leaking information that isn't supposed to be leaked.
Quote:
The Washington Post’s Dana Milbank caught an interesting tidbit from yesterday’s House hearing on the attacks on the U.S. diplomatic mission in Libya last month. The GOP — having spent months railing against the Obama administration for allegedly leaking classified information — yesterday revealed classified information. “When House Republicans called a hearing in the middle of their long recess, you knew it would be something big,” Milbank reports today, “and indeed it was: They accidentally blew the CIA’s cover.”
Your link is from October 2012 pertaining to the first hearing.
Charlene Lamb had two aerial photos she wanted to refer to during the hearing. She only got to showing one of them identifying the annex and the compound (for the purpose of distance) and was asked by the committee if the photos were classified or unclassified. She was told not to use them.

He's hiding information. Period. His Wh has not cooperated from day one. Its been 8 months and nearly all documents and emails have not been released.
And no, its not.because of classification, some in DC said many docs are unclassified.
Obamas own words are against him here. He is hiding and holding back info, that means he is hiding something. Amazing how you stupid liberals continue to defend this. My God, if he and the State Dept could clear themselves, they would release ALL information. They refuse.
NoJiveMan,
I sort of agree with you. Yes Richard Nixon used the claim that he couldn't release the tapes for national security reasons and that you couldn't trust congress etc...executive privilege, etc...
However, that tactic didn't work for Richard Nixon, because the people believed that if he wouldn't release the tapes it meant that he had something to hide.
I don't know why you are defending Richard Nixon's right to have kept the tapes secret - it is for the better of the country that sun light was shone on the corruption to disinfect it.
They hand picked the emails they wanted to release, what a JOKE.
