We shouldn't be surprised, and I'm not. I asked little more than an hour rhetorically is this would be the end of Benghazi-with the emails clearly backing up the Administration's position.

We got a pretty quick answer: no. What does it matter if it's been debunked? After all 41% of Republicans think this is the biggest scandal in American history. Why let the fact that there is actually no scandal at all-other than the public resources in time and money that Darrell Issa and his Republican friends have wasted on this total non-story"
What they are doing of course, is complaining that the 100 pages of emails just weren't nearly enough, that they were merely "cherrypicked." This is the logic of the Whitewater-Lewinskygate years as well. Just keep demanding more no matter how much evidence shows that there's nothing there. Go on a totally open-ended fishing expedition until something-anything-comes up-like the Lewinsky dress. If there's nothing there then it's "cherry-picked." Heads I win, tails you lose.
"The White House release of some 100 pages of emails and notes about the deadly attack on the U.S. diplomatic mission in Benghazi, Libya, last year has failed to satisfy congressional Republicans, who are demanding more information."

Why not release every unclassified document since the Ice Age? But why stop at the Ice Age, what are you trying to hide?! What happened before the Ice Age?!!

“Why not release all of the unclassified documents?” said Rep. Jason Chaffetz, R-Utah, a member of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee. “The president has repeatedly said that when he gets new information, he’ll release it to the public. Why not release — instead of the hand-picked ones — why not release all the unclassified documents?”
"A spokesman for House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, said Wednesday Republicans hoped “this limited release of documents is a sign of more cooperation to come,” while the chairman of the House Armed Services Committee pressed the Pentagon for more details about military orders around the time of the attack and what military aircraft were in the region."
