While some potential Republican presidential candidates have criticized President Barack Obama’s decision not to release photos of Osama bin Laden's dead body, presumed frontrunner Mitt Romney agrees with the president.

"It's best not to release the photo because it has the potential to incite retaliatory violence against Americans," Romney said in a statement to Politico.

That was the same point made by Obama....

Frontrunner among his family, co-religionists and employees, maybe.

[Mr. K]

er... Thanks ‘Mitt’

yes, yes, we know you are still around somewhere... now go play

[RC one]

right, because we didn’t show the picture, our Islamic enemies won’t want revenge now. Got it Mitt. Go away now please.

[pallis]

Well, you know, Romney’s a go along, get along kinda’ guy.

[ex-snook]

He’s dead. Is this the deader replacement to the birther?
The military says they don’t want it. Shouldn’t that be sufficient for those with put American interests first?

When you have to stop and consider the violence others might do because you’re going to do something that anyone else would consider pretty normal, then it’s time to stop, realize you’re pandering to a bully, and deal with the bully.

Romney’s absolutely lost when it comes to leadership.

"It's best not to release the photo because it has the potential to incite retaliatory violence against Americans,"

Mitt, you ignorant twit. Those who would take offense to the killing of a mass-murdering terrorist are already extreme, and don't need yet another excuse to commit violence. Our very existence incites them. In anything, our lame attempts at appeasement encourages the jihadis more than anything else by convincing them that their enemy is mentally weak.

Romney backs Obama’s Osama Bin Laden ban?

[bill1952]

Your post is not understandable

[Conservative Vermont Vet]

What do these feckless (F'N) RINOS like Muutt and Rogers and others expect to gain by giving Dear Leader cover and legitimacy?

An invite to the Christmas party? A pat on the back by the State-Run Media who will stab them in the back tomorrow?

Don't they realize there is an election next year and "we" want to defeat this Fascist, Commie...NOT help get him reelected?

CAN'T THEY JUST SAY "NO COMMENT" AND SHUT THEIR PIE HOLES???

[Berlin_Freeper]

I want to see the picture just to piss idiots off.

Spineless jellyfish...

Sure. He also supports Obamacare, no doubt. And gay marriage. And taxpayer funded abortion. And drilling bans. And . . . fill in the blanks.

He’s another McCain.

Since Romney seems to agree with Obama on just about everything these days, what the heck is he going to run on? The color of the White House carpets? Who has the better hair? How many Chevy Volts the government is going to buy?
