Hope, Change and...

...shades of Nancy Pelosi...
-- WASHINGTON -- President Barack Obama is seeking to block the immediate release of hundreds of new photos showing U.S. personnel allegedly abusing prisoners in Iraq and Afghanistan.

An administration official said today that the president told his legal advisers last week that releasing the photos would endanger U.S. troops.

Obama wants the issue to go back to court, although federal appeals judges have ruled the photos be released.

...and apparently Dems are okay with that.
The biggest news story on the issue now is whether House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, California Democrat, knew about the tactics and approved using them.

Mrs. Pelosi says she learned about the tactics in 2002 but understood they would be used in the future.
Yes, America... wake up and behold the kinder, gentler Democratic regime.
