Hussein Obama’s latest 180 – No release of Abu Ghraib photos – ACLU is fuming mad
For the first time in his adult presidenticy, Hussein Obama has done something right. Hussein Obama met with White House counsel Greg Craig and other members of the White House counsel team last week and told them that he had second thoughts about the decision to hand over photographs of detainee abuse to the ACLU, per a judge’s order, and had changed his mind according ABC (yes, ABC actually mentions this).
Hussein says he “believes their release would endanger our troops,” a White House official says, adding that the president “believes that the national security implications of such a release have not been fully presented to the court.”
Ya think you idiot Obama? Thats what we’ve been saying since day 1 that you announced you would release these damn photos! Its not releasing those “torture memos” did us any favors though, if you are so concerned about National Security and our troops, so cut the act.
Other takes Michelle Malkin posted by others:
Lorie Byrd of WizBangBlog: “I don’t understand how Obama argues that these pictures would endanger the troops, but that the “torture memos” he released did not. I have to wonder if he now believes he should not have released those memos. If he does regret it, is it because of national security concerns or politics?”
Andy McCarthy from National Review Online yesterday: “If President Obama wanted to refrain from releasing these photos in order to protect the military forces he commands or promote the security of Americans — his two highest obligations as president — he could do so by simply issuing an executive order. The applicable statute expressly allows for it, just as it provides for Congress — now in the firm control of the president and his party — to withhold the photos from disclosure.”
Now lets see what the ACLU is made of.
