Obama is just trying to make us happy ~ but it won't work. Making prisoners "uncomfortable" is not torture, but if there are White House people who'd like to know what it's all about I'm sure there are plenty of folks around with the requisite skills who'd be happy to give them a REAL demonstration of how it feels.

Oh, yes!

Always willing to through the military under the bus for anything that happened during Bush’s tenure, they steadfastly continue to coverup all that has happened on Obama’s watch. And they appear prepared to punish the operatives that gave him Osama, all while the MSM continues to sweep and bow before Dear Leader.

I see the point. Obama is willing to release photos of so-called abuse against us when he knows it will inflame the Middle-East but he's “too afraid” to inflame them from the release of Bin Laden’s bullet in the head.

Is it really that difficult to see the connection this article has with today’s news of the UBL photo?

I would think the point of the OP was to show that Obama couldn’t have been more supportive of the release of the Abu Ghraib photos, knowing how dangerous that would make things for our troops, how bad they would make our country look. Now, he will not release the Bin Laden death photo because he is concerned about how the rest of the world will receive it?

It makes NO sense. Purposely releasing pictures that will endanger Americans and now purposely witholding a photo that makes us look like LIARS.

Did everybody hear the rumor that Apple is making a tablet computer? I have seen pictures and it looks like a giant Ipod. This will fail.

A 2 year old article should not be posted here without the op explaining its not current. Most people don’t bother to read the date on the article.

D’oh, completely forgot about that and the Holder CIA probe.

How in the world can we have elected this person?

I think he’s covering his butt by not releasing the photos as they would secure more of the disdain, and wrath the opposite he thought he’d get from the rest of the World. Seems the rest of the World is all of a sudden more concerned about the fact OBL was unarmed, and are now accusing the USA of murder, and illegal operations with intent to murder the man.

Personally I say screw the rest of the World on this one, but Obama I think placed a great amount of faith in gaining reverence from his peers out there. I think he blew it for his ego. Let’s see what time will bring us.

He ended up not releasing those pictures either did he?

Some people need some reading comprehension here. This is a 2009 article about photos that were never released.
