“After Panetta earlier saying there was no question that a photo would ultimately be released.”

They have bungled the communications from the beginning.

You know that making this decision will bring the news back to the horrid economy, no jobs, etc....

Dumb move, Obama. You should have taken longer so the MSM could froth at the mouth about this photo a while longer.

Yeah; and we don’t want to talk to any other of the muzzies in the compound with OBL, either. What’d they know? And, and, and, we don’t want anyone else talking to them, either.
So, all of you just STFU, and BELIEVE WHAT WE SAY - OR ELSE!

One of Rush’s callers nailed it, saying essence: “if Obama made this “gutsy” decision to send ground troops in harms way specifically for the purpose of getting DNA evidence, then he’d better put it all out on the table. Otherwise they may as well have dropped a big bomb”.

So, we have MUCH MORE proof that we landed on the moon, than there is that they actually KILLED Osama.........by far!

LOL

Obama doesn’t need to release the photos because he will be dragging Osama’s dead corpse to every campaign stop next year....LOL!! The man is determined to overplay his hand on this one and it’s already turning off the American people...BIG TIME!!

Incredible. No matter what the situation is, you can always count on Obama and Co. to make the wrong decision every single time.

Now look for those in the Middle East to flare up, make Bin Laden even bigger in death than he was in life, and give us even more problems going ahead.

No one in the Middle East will now believe he is dead.

Thanks, Obama, for screwing us AGAIN!

That’ll just convince the conspiratorial Muslim world that he isn’t dead, and thus encourage more jihad.

That's my thought as well. Its ridiculous not to release them. Worried they might be insensitive to our enemies? Our enemies had no sensitivity problems with people falling from the Towers. No sensitivity issues with images of hanging and burning contractors. No sensitivity issues with videos of beheadings. No sensitivity issues with videos of women being stoned to death.

This is just a lame excuse.

“Then there’s no proof it happened.”

Gee, are you saying when they come back and say “the DNA proves 100% he’s really, really dead!” you won’t believe them?

Like everything else this administration is involved in, this whole thing smells fishy.

No, that was one of the things they took into account. They believe the m world is convinced by what his relatives have said. More worried about what the m world thinks than what we think. This was floated earlier.

Temporarily... Obummer’s saving this bump for just before the election to make Imam Obama unquestionable to his blind followers.

That’s okay.

‘Wikileaks’ will be releasing them in a few days...

They should release the DNA. I’m sure they took tissue samples.

I'll admit that I'm not any kind of national security/foreign policy expert, so perhaps there's a case to be made for not releasing this kind of photo. But, if there is, I haven't heard ANYONE make it yet.

And, people whom I respect in this field that can also be described as political "moderates", like Giuliani & Panetta, have said unequivocally that it should be released - Panetta even said that it would be released. To me, this seems like a HUGE mistake.

It was hard to dress up a body that was dead for at least eight years.
