Carney is a complete dipshit.

He said yesterday that UBL was "eased" into the water. WTF would HE know about the distance between the conveyor and the water? "Eased" my ass! How about a big ****ing SPLASH?!?

You'd better believe UBL made a splash, a fact that earned him only a 1.3 in his dive. Every good diver knows you have to minimize your splash and when you don't, your score suffers.

namvet, h5 for a great photo!

White House: 'Categorical' Decision Not to Release Bin Laden Photo

Quote

President Obama has made a "categorical" decision not to release any photos of Usama bin Laden's dead body, according to the White House, citing concern that doing so could inflame sentiment against Americans.

White House Press Secretary Jay Carney said Wednesday that the president consulted his national security team and ultimately decided it would be too risky to release any images of the body. Obama also determined the administration has already proved bin Laden is dead, he said.

he has??? think maybe he might wanna let us in on it???

If I were to go to the dictionary and look up "geek dipshit" I'd find Carney in there.

Kinda hard not to think about Art Carney, the sewer worker.

BTW, have you had a chance to introduce yourself yet? If not, you may want to do that. Just open a thread in the Introduction forum and let folks know who you are.

And welcome.

And President Dipshit screws the pooch again...

Decides NOT to release Bin Laden's death photo, for fear of pissing off the ****ing mohammedans.

Show of hands...who isn't the least bit surprised by this?

*Raises hand*

Appeasement is as natural as breathing for Obama. He's scared of inciting the muslims? Newsflash for Obama: WE INCITE THEM JUST BY EXISTING!

Sheesh.

Out of deference to Muslim sensitivities, the Imam Barack will not release photos of Osama's corpse.

http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-503544_162-20059739-503544.html?tag=breakingnews

Not only that - a US Navy Imam gave the worst mass murderer in US history a religious service,
before dumping him in the sea!

I was not going to criticize Obama in any way about whacking Bin Laden.
I'm proud of JSCOC, the SEALS & even him. I don't care if Obama was unarmed.
He killed a lot of unarmed people.

But this idea of giving him religious services burns my a**!
And not releasing photos for fear of offending Muslims?

They should have strung his corpse from a lampost in Lower Manhattan!

Sigh. This post will probably cost me a bitchslap or 10.

I was finishing up teaching Band of Brothers today in my English class. Maj. Richard Winters, at the end of the War, gave an enemy German general the courtesy of a salute after the formal surrender.

One of the summer reading choices for our students is Killer Angels. Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain led the Union army in a salute of the defeated Confederate troops.

America treated the defeated Japanese emperor with respect after Tokyo fell, despite the horrific bombing of Pearl Harbor only 4 years earlier. Hell, England, Germany, and Japan are our closest allies after they killed tens of thousands of Americans.

I'm not a bleeding heart, but it just occurs to me that Americans are different. There is no more evil man in the 21st century that Osama Bin Laden. I'm not comparing Bin Laden to an honorable military leader. I'm just trying to establish that Americans are different, more decent perhaps. But I think it speaks well of America that we buried him.

And let's be honest. I don't know what kind of religious burial would help him when he sat in judgment before the Throne.

True, the Allies decided against prosecuting Emperor Hirohito for the war crimes that Tojo and hundreds of IJA officers were tried for. It was done to prevent a backlash against the occupying American and Allied forces in the Pacific and unsettling the entire Emperor system the Japanese had been inculcated with since the Japanese-Russian war in 1903 through to Japan's annexation of Korea after the rape of Nanking in 1937.

In other words, things could have gotten ugly.

I gave him one too. Splashdown, there is something to be said for acting with honor. We have a tradition steeped in it. While my baser emotions aren't so honorable, I praise those who are able to keep their emotions in check and do the right thing.

But, let me be clear, I don't give the President credit for that, rather the participants in the mission. Don't trust that cat one iota.

No bitch-slap from me. But your analogy is deeply flawed.

That German General was a warrior. It was his job to kill other warriors. He did his duty.

Hirohito was the leader of a nation-state that was at war with another nation-state.
His warriors fought our warriors bravely and lost.

Yes. Both sides murdered unarmed civilians. But that was not the singular purpose of war.
The purpose of any war is to defeat your opponent's military - armed warriors fighting other armed warriors.
Yes - civilians get killed in the process. But that is not the over-arching purpose of war.

Bin-Laden murdered over 3,000 unarmed civilians. That was his goal.
That was his singular purpose. When the clash of arms came - he ran away
and hid. He was protected by others.

He was no warrior. He deserved no religious service from a US military chaplain.
His cause deserves no deference.

It would be fine if Obama released photos. I wouldn't gripe.
But to refuse to even do that - is an insult to the American people.

And your analogy does injustice to those of us who have been warriors.
It was not my job to murder unarmed civilians.

I agree. That's why, for dozens of reasons going back to the fouding of the republic, the American military is special. To go back to one more Band of Brothers point, the residents of Germany and Austria, and even Japan, never had to worry about conquering Americans raping, pillaging and plundering. I'm sure there are always isolated incidents, but when compared to what the Germans did in Holland, France, etc., and especially what Japan did in its conquests, members of the American military were--and still are--amazingly honorable and restrained. Ambrose credited it to the idea of "citizen soldiers."

Gurn, I mean absolutely no disrespect to you, or anyone who has ever worn the uniform in service to the United States. Just the opposite.

And I agree with you about the photos, even though the tinfoil-hat crowd will still claim fakery.
