They'll get out sooner or later. The FOIA terriers will keep after them forever until they get them. The Obama Justice Dept. will probably end up handing them over. When they do, Obama will tut-tut, and secretly smile - HE didn't turn them over..

Ultimately it will be up to a court, not Obama whether the pictures are released to the public.

But i'm confused. On the one hand you say releasing the pictures which show harsh treatment of prisoners will endanger our troops.

But on the other hand you say renouncing enhanced interrogation techniques and torture makes us look weak, and therefore less safe.

Can you clarify?
