Obama: "Osama bin Laden is not a trophy," Will NOT Release Photos
Pundit Press ^ | 5/4/11 | Aurelius

It is now being reported that President Obama has decided not to release the death photos of terrorist master mind Osama bin Laden.

The news was broken by CBS in a Tweet:

They also linked to an article of theirs, written just minutes before, explaining that the President would not release the photos. They quoted the President as saying:

"The risks of release outweigh the benefits. Conspiracy theorists around the world will just claim the photos are doctored anyway, and there is a real risk that releasing the photos will only serve to inflame public opinion in the Middle East. Imagine how the American people would react if Al Qaida killed one of our troops or military leaders, and put photos of the body on the internet. Osama bin Laden is not a trophy - he is dead and let's now focus on continuing the fight until Al Qaida has been eliminated."

This is surprising news, considering that yesterday out-going CIA director Leon Panetta stated that he thought the pictures would be released.

Psst....if he’s not a “trophy” then you have to stop waving him around like a trophy when it’s convenient to you!

Obama is lying again. The Liar-In-Chief knows that Moslims do post pictures and videos of their butchering of non-Muslims.

Time to impeach the Moslim-In-The-White-House.

If Osama’s not a trophy, what’s Obama doing the “I killed bin Laden” tour for?

Ubama is mad about his multi-layered birth certificate being called out as a fake.

Obama: "Imagine how the American people would react if Al Qaida killed one of our troops or military leaders (OR CITIZENS), and put photos of the body on the internet."

I won't post the picture of Daniel Pearl's head chopped off from his body but it is ON THE INTERNET, you freaking fool, Obama!

Maye he is just clueless BUT...

2004 - A crowd of cheering Iraqis dragged the charred and mutilated bodies of four contractors working for the U.S.-led coalition through the streets of Falluja Wednesday after they died in an ambush.

At least two bodies were tied to cars and pulled through the streets, witnesses said.

Some body parts were pulled off and left hanging from a telephone cable.

Like al Jazeera did - graphically - at al Qaeda's orders in 2003?

The White House insists that “nobody” is asking to see the photos. That sounds a lot like their insistance that “73% support [Obamacare]”

If he’s not a trophy, then why are you and your political allies treating him like one?

” I went to the prom with Sean Connery, but I won’t show you the picture because he wasn’t my trophy. Like that Obama?”

Now that’s a response. Well done.
