Yesterday I wrote this blog with the recommendation that the photos not be released and gave a few of my reasons. It was with satisfaction that I heard today that Obama had similar thoughts. In fact, the White House added even more reasons in a similar vein.
Even Dr. Phil agreed as did many who really know the modern world of doctoring photos. Those who disagreed should be relegated to a category of people living in the past, who really think a photo is worth doing because the damage will be outdone by the 'good' it will do for our country. They are as naive as Pastor Jones in Florida who burned the Quran,
Rumsfeld is taking credit due waterboarding and says, "People are equating waterboarding with torture." He must be living in an alternate world. He, Cheney and Bush cannot go to Switzerland because they will be brought to court for torturing prisoners. The Geneva Convention considers waterboarding as torture. There were the three who were 'leading' our country for so long and brought us to our current mess. Waterboarding is an ancient form of torture, It is well documented.
If one wants to see just how ridiculous our media has become, turn on the news or go on the internet and read newspapers, blogs, and whatever you wish. Each source will have a different story. While I haven't had much faith in what the government said during the last administration, I have much more faith in the current one. I do believe that Osama bin Laden is dead and that the Navy Seals killed him. It is pity that we still have American politicians asking for proof.
