These two have an interesting common denominator that reveals much about our president's mindset.
Consider CIA director Leon Panetta's reaction of shrug-of-the-shoulders "sure" when asked whether the photos would be revealed. After all, the killing of Osama is big news, the public is curious, so why not? Some won't look, some will look with horror, some with disgust, some with revulsion, some with gloating, some will make a screensaver of it - a normal and totally understandable gamut of reactions to a highly visible event.
Obama's reaction could not have been more different to Panetta's. "What will the enemies think of it?" is the first question on his mind. Will it, to use the Soviet expression justifying suppression of the negative internal news, "pour water on the mill of the enemies?"
And this is not the first expression of that attitude. Obama's refusal to disclose his birth certificate to the curious public falls into the same pattern and shows the same feature of his mindset -- an innate, instinctive desire to hide information from the public rather than to reveal it.

Can't those clowns around the Messiah do a fogery properly? Can they do anything properly, including describing properly such an incident of Navy Seal heroism?
You are the instruments that God is going to use to bring about universal change, and that is why Barack has captured the youth. And he has involved young people in a political process that they didn't care anything about. That's a sign. When the Messiah speaks, the youth will hear, and the Messiah is absolutely speaking."
It makes me sick to hear heroes cheer this asshole.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
I know he was to visit the troops today but I haven’t followed the story.
Did our troops actually cheer? I would expect polite clapping but that would be about all.
You have to ask yourself why US Senators were shown fake Osama death pictures? Of course I keep asking why anyone believes the fake BC?
However, when it was revealed that a death photo or other confirmation of Osama would not be released, several in the media and politicians have dared to question The One on this issue. Are people getting tired of Obama's 'transparency'?
Obama says BOTH sides of EVERYTHING!! Well, except for ABORTION!
I was unaware that Senators were shown fake images of Osama’s death, but with 2 fake birth certificates I would not be at all surprised.
Is Obama irrational or sadistic? It is difficult to determine.
After more that two years, Obama posts a so-called birth certificate that is utterly uncertified, arrived by way of a broken chain of evidence, and in an electronic form that allows for mischief and forgery. It contains nothing that would justify the long delay in its release, the ruination of Major Cook's career, or the imprisonment of LTC Lakin. It's as if Obama deliberately set out to shove a thumb in the eye of his political opponents in the most cruel manner possible.
So....With the photos of Osama bin Laden’s body. I expect more of the same.
I wonder if Obama enjoys pulling the wings off flies just to see them squirm.
probably revolt
