WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Republican Senator John McCain urged President Barack Obama Thursday to classify photographs said to depict the abuse of terrorism suspects to ensure they do not become public.

Obama is fighting release of the photos in the courts but has not declared them secret.

"All he has to do today is use an executive order to declare these photos classified material," said McCain who lost the 2008 presidential election to Obama.

"That's all he has to do," he told Reuters in a telephone interview.

McCain = worthless.

The least he could have done is be a consistent vocal opposition to Dear Leader.

Fair enough. Why bring Bush into this anyway? The post is about McLame.

Because the hate directed against McCain here is palpable...you'd almost have to believe that it was he alone, instead of because of eight years of incompetence in office, that was responsible for Obama's victory.
