Any proof this “doctoring” occurred, and that it was done by a Republican? Even if it did, that's one e-mail out of how many that prove the administration is guilty of extreme malfeasance.

Just for reference the articles that debunked this story over the weekend:

Pfeiffer Stretches the Truth on Benghazi E-mails

Very abbreviated:

This is wrong in four ways.

Point one: Republicans never “received” the e-mails........

Point two: Republicans raised strenuous objections based on the information they were given at that briefing. ......

Point three: Nothing was “doctored.” .......

Point four: The differences between the two versions of the e-mail have been overstated........

About those “doctored” Benghazi e-mails…

No. The article even states that it did not occur. There were apparently slightly different versions circulating, but the different versions were quite similar to each other. Remember that the reporters were only allowed to look at the e-mails, not take notes, so possibly there was some inexactitude, but not over the essential facts (the e-mails seen by the reporters mentioned the State Dept, the need to keep the information from pointing to the State Dept., and the need for further work on the talking points).

If anybody doctored anything, it was whoever in the WH produced this supposedly authoritative e-mail, which is so doctored it says nothing and was obviously just done for the occasion.
