Obammy flip flops again. Maybe even he now realizes how much damage could be done to the US by bending over the radical left wing loons in the ACLU.
WASHINGTON (CNN) -- President Obama said Wednesday he told government lawyers to object to a court-ordered release of additional images showing alleged abuse of detainees because the release could affect the safety of U.S. troops and "inflame anti-American opinion."
President Obama discusses the alleged prisoner abuse photos at the White House on Wednesday.
1 of 2 Releasing the photos could have a "chilling effect" on further investigations of detainee abuse without adding to the understanding of past abuses, he said.
The Pentagon was set to release hundreds of photographs of prisoners in detention facilities in Afghanistan and Iraq.
