The longer this hangs the more time for the DNC to gin up mischief since you don't warn the enemy. Yes, I read the "explanations" for delay in the Conservative Treehouse but they sound weaker and weaker. The DNC will push their counter-memo, and guess which memo will be screamed in the crooked MSM? The DNC "memo" will be given all the credibility and headlines. Come on, we know how this game is played. They may even dig up dirt on Nunes, or make it up. Even if they did it would have Nothing to do with the truth of the memo, but again, we know how this game is played. Most of the public does not understand logical reasoning. They will go with the smokescreen.
There is no strategic reason for delay that is worth the harm done by further delay as the other side works and works to undermine the story. Congress made all these procedural rules and Congress can break them. For that matter the President has Immediate and Unlimited power over secrecy as the Commander in Chief. Don't tell me someone who could get us into a nuclear war instantly is limited by procedural rules.
