I don't want to prolong the discussion, because I know there are other motions. I just think that what's different about this and a court or whatever is that other members are entitled to see a document that's being shown to a witness. We have to be able to ask the witness questions. We have to be able to assess the credibility of the witness. Whoever introduces a document may ask us to read the first three sentences and then forget to read the last seven sentences, which say something different. We have to see the whole document, and that's the principle, I think.
I usually agree with the chairman and I think the chairman's rule is the right one. If you're going to introduce a document, you have to show it to everybody so everybody can see what it is, and then the witness can say this is what it is. Otherwise, we're in the dark. On this one, I think what we need to do, frankly, if you're concerned about the information in the document, then before you share it with the rest of us, you should redact it yourself. How's that?
