And, in the latest Obama torture sellout …

President Barack Obama has officially decided to fight the release of torture pictures whose release the ACLU has won in court.

And, the ACLU is calling him out on it:
“The decision to not release the photographs makes a mockery of President Obama's promise of transparency and accountability,” said ACLU attorney Amrit Singh, who argued and won the case in front of the 2nd U.S. Court of Appeals in New York. “It is essential that these photographs be released so that the public can examine for itself the full scale and scope of prisoner abuse that was conducted in its name.”

You know the answer to this – vote Green in 2012.
