Daily Mail has a couple of these pics up on thier site. Have I seen them before in the Abu Ghraib affair? Are the "New" pics the same as the OLD pics?
Here comes the excrement-storm, folks...
“Mr Obama fears a backlash against U.S. troops serving in Iraq and Afghanistan.”
Mr Obama fears a backlash against his administration from the American people for treasonous acts.
Fixed it.
I wish just once they would find a leaker and hang him.
Barry better watch his step before he drops into a hole he can not get out of.
oh no, there’s a guy hanging upside down with a rectangle on his weiner!
The photos will be “leaked”, the WH will promptly weigh in on how the images do not represent America’s new direction, and empty words will be uttered in flimsy defence of armed forces personnel still in the field.
All the benefits from releasing the photos, but with few (none political) of the costs.
Sy Hersh leaking pics to the UK papers?? Jail him then!
I knew it.
He never intended that the photos not be leaked. This was talked about on FR for the last two days. He was playing CYA, now he can claim innocent on leaking them, and they are out there and his base can slap themselves on the back. No surprise here.
I wonder if there will be a DOJ investigation to find and prosecute the leakers like they did when our supposed spy was outed (Valerie Plame).
I mean the case for the Plame investigation was that it “damaged national security” and this leak may well result in the deaths of US Soldiers.
on second thought, Eric Houlder isn’t really there to conduct investigations unless they are investigations of Republicans.
What a sad commentary on what the Left has made of this country.
That’s how I would get out of bed on Sunday mornings back in college.
Right out of the Clinton playbook. Say you don’t want something done and then let one of your flying monkeys do it for you.
He was voted in and America is getting what it asked for.
Seems like things just got easier for al-Q. They don’t have to hijack an airliner this time. Just photoshop some torture photos and let the rank and file muslims do the outrage thing.
You’re assuming the pics were not leaked by Barry’s orders. If he openly released them, then he would be held responsible for the results. If they’re leaked, Barry can wash his hands of the consequences.
How would it be torture to put a hood on someone’s head and then show him pictures of naked women? He wouldn’t be able to see them, so how would he know they were naked? Or was the torture knowing that there were pictures of naked women that they couldn’t see?
We need a congressional investigation on this one, pronto.
What??????? Do you *honestly* think that these photos were released without Hussein's *specific* knowledge and *specific* consent?
He's playing both sides of the fence...which is *exactly* what Saul Alinsky encouraged.He announced that it would be wrong to release them....and then....*secretly*...orders them to be released.Released in such a way as to provide three layers of deniability for him *and* his top aides.
Obama has photos leaked so he can lie again and say I didnt know that would happen
IMPEACH his sorry arse now
OMG!
And they call waterboarding torture?!?
Was Nancy Pelosi briefed on this?
"OK you prisoners listen up. Who wants the bamboo shoots under their fingernails and who wants to sit in a chair with a hood on and a Playboy magzine in their lap?"
There are two exceptions to the Freedom of Information Act. 1. for issues of national security, and 2. for issues of foreign policy.
All Obammie the Commie had to do was sign an executive order barring the release of these images for reason of national security and the matter would have ended there.
That he plays out this silly game in the judiciary process and says he'll release them, then assigns one of his lawyers to fight against releasing them — while he knows he can stop the release of the images by executive order — proves beyond any shadow of a doubt that his goal was to release these images in order to appease his extreme-left-wing base and assuage conservatives and make the believe he was against it, all the while, exacting damage on America knowingly.
The naked guy hanging there looks to me like he is doing it himself. There’s a bottle on the floor next to him, a towel between his head and the floor, and his hands are not tied. If this is torture then I’ve woken up to it a whole lot of times when I was young and single.
