Releash the Damn Photos

President Obama doesn't want to inflame Muslim opinion by releasing the photographs of Osama Bin Laden with his brainpan ventilated. Now, I realize that the Navy SEALs likely snuffed out the founder of al Qaeda with an MP5K sub-machinegun, and a NATO 5.56mm round fired from one of those bad boys at close range would likely have peeled back Osama's skullcap like a banana and made a nice Jackson Pollack-esque brain splatter on the wall.

But, showing the corpse of Osama bin Laden might inflame the sensitivities of people who follow a religion of peace that bin Laden allegedly hijacked. And we all know what happens when followers of a hijacked religion of peace get inflamed, right?

And so, all we have are faked photos of a dead Osama bin Laden, like the one that looks more like Rodney King after a routine traffic stop in LA than a guy that got pasted by a headshot.

Release the damn photo, Obama!

Now it's time to put the controversy in context.

Do you remember the peaceful Muslims in the idyllic town of Fallujah, Iraq, known as the "city of mosques" for its over 200 Islamic houses of worship. In photographs released to all major news outlets the Muslims are merrily stringing up the charred and dismembered corpses of American contractors (Scott Helvenston, Jerry Zovko, Wesley Batalona, and Michael Teague) on the bridge over the Euphrates River after attacking them, beating them, and setting them on fire.

Careful. I realize there is an impulse to get angry about Muslims killing Americans and desecrating their bodies and putting them on display for the world, but keep your cool. Remember, President Obama prosecuted the Navy SEAL that punched the terrorist responsible for this attack on American contractors.

Remember when we saw photos and video of Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl, of the Muslim Terrorist recording of his execution by beheading at the hands of his al Qaeda abductors. The taped beheading of Daniel Pearl was made into an al-Qaeda recruitment video, which was subsequently released on the internet as well as aired internationally by Al Jazeera TV and CBS News.

Don't get mad. The man who likely beheaded Daniel Pearl, Khalid Sheikh Muhammad, is in US custody at Guantanamo. KSM, as war on terrorism chroniclers know, is the Baluchistani terrorist on Saddam Hussein's payroll that planned the 9/11 attacks. KSM was arrested in Pakistan after Iraqi intelligence officials defected and surrendered right before we invaded Iraq back in 2003. They knew right where he was, and we went and got him. To me, that justifies the war in Iraq that candidate Obama said was the "wrong war." Saddam Hussein's intelligence services were deep in bed with a terrorist organization that had just killed 3000 Americans. [Don't argue with me, read the Clinton administration 1998 federal indictment of Osama bin Laden]

KSM pled guilty in a military tribunal, and would be executed by now except the wisdom of President Barack "I will stand with the Muslims" Obama believes the Justice Department can get a better verdict in the civilian courts than a guilty plea in a death penalty case in front of a military tribunal.

Don't get mad about Obama not releasing a photo of the dead Osama yet. Remember, according to our wise President Obama, the Daniel Pearl execution video "captured the imagination of the world." I guess like Star Wars, only without the John Williams symphony soundtrack.

Speaking of captured imaginations, remember the internet video of a TSA employee molesting a non-Muslim child to make sure he's not a suicide bomber before he boards a plane. Without getting into the specifics about the leftist incapacity for rational thought, let's just say this venture into absurdity may one day payoff for Obama's "counter-terrorism" efforts when a TSA molester accidentally triggers the detonator on an actual suicide bomber and kills everyone waiting in line to get to their plane. And who wants to bet that that chance suicide bomber blowing himself up in middle of the airport screening line to kill dozens of people will be a person not singled out for scrutiny while the kids ahead of him in line are molested for the sake of not making him feel needlessly inconvenienced as a Muslim?

Don't get mad. Remember, your kids will get molested at the airport and you will get a mild dose of radiation by the backscatter Nudie-Vision x-ray photography machines manned by the Department of Homeland Security for the same reason President Obama won't release Osama bin Laden's death photo: molesting your kids and collecting nude photos of you into a federal database are merely two ways we avoid disturbing the all-important Muslim sensitivities.

Not offending Muslim sensitivities is imperative. Do you remember the front page photos of wounded soldiers at Fort Hood, Texas being treated by medics after the third Islamic terrorist attack on US soil since President Bush left office claimed the lives of 12 people. Army Major Nidal Malik Hasan, a Muslim military psychiatrist went ding-dong and shot up other soldiers preparing to deploy to Afghanistan to fight al Qaeda and the Taliban. Now, we all know psychology and psychiatric degrees are very important to those seeking management positions at Taco Bell, but I'd like to think the field doesn't draw people apt to go ultraviolent jihadi thrill kill on the advice of a Muslim cleric met on the internet. But, hey, I'm trying to be sensitive to Muslims here, and so were the FBI, who were monitoring the good Muslim US Army shrink's communications with a radical Islamist cleric known for condoning terrorist attacks as "holy." That's why the FBI never told the Army that they had a radicalized terrorist sympathizer near weapons and tanks and ammunition and a short drive through the nearest elementary school full of kids. That's why the FBI never made a move on Hasan before he went on a shooting rampage. Don't offend the Muslim sensitivities.

I mean a cartoon caused Danish and Norwegian embassies in Syria to spontaneously combust as peaceful Muslims stood around them carrying Molotov cocktails. The cartoonist, Kurt Westergaard, lives under threats to his life for drawing a cartoon of Mohammed, just as Salman Rushdie does for writing a novel referencing Muhammad's historical making up verses in the Koran to benefit himself allegedly because the Devil made him do it.

Perhaps releasing Osama Bin Laden's death picture will do more harm than good. It's entirely possible that for the first time in the history of human civilization, Muslims might … gasp …attack America. We best not offend these good people with a picture of a dead terrorist.

Would a "3rd Bush Term" have been this bad?

If George W. Bush had been the first President to need a teleprompter installed to be able to get through a press conference, would you have laughed and said this is more proof of how he inept he is on his own and is really controlled by smarter men behind the scenes?


If George W. Bush had spent hundreds of thousands of dollars to take Laura Bush to a play in NYC, would you have approved?

If George W. Bush had reduced your retirement plan's holdings of GM stock by 90% and given the unions a majority stake in GM, would you have approved?

If George W. Bush had made a joke at the expense of the Special Olympics, would you have approved?

If George W. Bush had given Gordon Brown a set of inexpensive and incorrectly formatted DVDs, when Gordon Brown had given him a thoughtful and historically significant gift, would you have
approved?

If George W. Bush had given the Queen of England an iPod containing videos of his speeches, would you have thought this embarrassingly narcissistic and tacky?

If George W. Bush had bowed to the King of Saudi Arabia, would you have approved?

If George W. Bush had visited Austria and made reference to the non-existent "Austrian language," would you have brushed it off as a minor slip?

If George W. Bush had filled his cabinet and circle of advisers with people who cannot seem to keep current in their income taxes, would you have approved?

If George W. Bush had been so Spanish illiterate as to refer to “Cinco de Cuatro" in front of the Mexican ambassador when it was the 5th of May (Cinco de Mayo), and continued to flub it when he tried again, would you have winced in embarrassment?

If George W. Bush had mis-spelled the word "advice" would you have hammered him for it for years like Dan Quayle and potatoe as proof of what a dunce he is?

If George W. Bush had burned 9,000 gallons of jet fuel to go plant a single tree on Earth Day, would you have concluded he's a hypocrite?

If George W. Bush's administration had okayed Air Force One flying low over millions of people followed by a jet fighter in downtown Manhattan causing widespread panic, would you have wondered whether they actually get what happened on 9-11?

If George W. Bush had failed to send relief aid to flood victims throughout the Midwest with more people killed or made homeless than in New Orleans, would you want it made into a major ongoing political issue with claims of racism and incompetence?

If George W. Bush had ordered the firing of the CEO of a major corporation, even though he had no constitutional authority to do so, would you have approved?

If George W Bush had proposed to double the national debt, which had taken more than two centuries to accumulate, in one year, would you have approved?

If George W. Bush had then proposed to double the debt again within 10 years, would you have approved?

So, tell me again, what is it about Obama that makes him so brilliant and impressive?

Can't think of anything? Don't worry. He's done all this in 5 months -- so you'll have three years and seven months to come up with an answer.

NBC says NO to ads thanking troops for their service.

NBC has nixed holiday advertisements meant to thank troops for serving overseas in opposition to the inclusion of a non-profit's Web address, www.freedomswatch.org.

Freedom's Watch President and CEO Bradley Blakeman stated that this is not the first time NBC has turned down his group's ads and believes it has a specific objection to his group's support for the War on Terror.

"NBC asked us to re-vamp our Web site. They wanted to censor us, and we said, 'No we're not going to be censored,'" Blakeman said, noting that the organization's Web site points to more than 20 other non-profit Web sites where readers can thank and support troops.
NBC also objected to using images including military uniforms and vehicles .
