It must be to give it an air of false patriotism. Fucking spineless coward fucks.

The Obama White House is supporting a new bill (sponsored by Sens. Lindsey Graham & Joe Lieberman) whose sole purpose is allowing the government to suppress any 'photograph taken between September 11, 2001 and January 22, 2009' relating to the treatment of detainees in the 'War on Terror.' In other words, Obama wants Congress to change the FOIA so that the courts can't compel release of any more torture photos.
