"Growing Into the Job"

That's how Lex described it. I think so, too (from ABC News):

President Obama met with White House counsel Greg Craig and other members of the White House counsel team last week and told them that he had second thoughts about the decision to hand over photographs of detainee abuse to the ACLU, per a judge's order, and had changed his mind.

The president "believes their release would endanger our troops," a White House official says, adding that the president "believes that the national security implications of such a release have not been fully presented to the court."

I'll refrain from using the "stopped clock, twice a day" analogy. I'm simply glad the man made the correct decision. One would expect no less from the CinC.
