Maybe they are relatives of his and it pains him to see them as “terrorists”?

One small isolated incident of sanity.

Some of the damage has been done, all in his plan to trash America, its military, our missions in two theaters, and the Bush Administration, ie, all patriots.

Just like John Effin Kerry, he was for it before he was against it.

Yeah - now that Pelosi and the Democrats have been documented as being briefed about the “torture”, it would be a little embarrassing at their own trial for war crimes.

No, this means the photos will be “leaked” instead of turned over.

"Sanity reigns."
Self preservation more likely.
Obviously something in the photos will reverberate badly against hisself.

There is a little crack of light splitting the darkness at the heart of destruction of America?
Why, why the U-Turn? What changed?

As someone said on another thread, it could be the photos will be leaked and Obama gets the best of both worlds.
It's BO's MO.

Don’t kid yourself, he’s still for it, this is
only being done on the advise of his political
advisors who see that the release of these photos
will rebound directly on obama himself, other than
that he could care less.

I still haven’t figured out if he is smart to the point that it’s all just politics and he’s playing both sides, or if he is just plain dumb and stupid.

Like John Kerry, he’s for releasing the documents but only if his critics cannot see them.

Perhaps someone hinted darkly about a certain birth certificate?

Well the Abu Ghraib photos were leaked by one of the participants who was already under criminal investigation. When he was unable to secure a plea bargain, the photos were leaked. That is blackmail and he should’ve been prosecuted for it along with his Uncle who was negotiating the deal.
