Obama is a shame! ------------------------- White House officials said Mr. Obama had not lost confidence in Mr. Nixon or State Highway Patrol officers in Missouri; one official described them as “acting in good faith” to help resolve the situation. But the official stressed that the White House did not necessarily believe the same of the local police in Ferguson. Behind the scenes, administration officials have sought to minimize the potential for angry reaction on the streets of the city. The Justice Department asked the Ferguson police not to release surveillance footage of a convenience store robbery in which, police said, Mr. Brown was a suspect, because of concerns that “it would roil the community further,” a federal law enforcement official said on Saturday. The Ferguson Police Department released the video on Friday, and the official said it “occurred over the objection of federal authorities.” Federal investigators had a copy of the video as well, the official said, “and there were never any plans by the federal investigators to release that copy.”
