Senate Panel Delays Vote on Brennan Nomination, Demands More Info on Drone Strikes 
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------


 
The Senate Intelligence Committee has announced it is delaying a vote on
whether to confirm John Brennan as CIA director as it waits for more
information on the drone program he has orchestrated. On Wednesday,
Committee Chair Dianne Feinstein reiterated a demand to see all nine
classified Justice Department memos on the supposed legal basis for
targeted killings of U.S. citizens. Two memos were released to the
committee last week.
