White House: No bin Laden photo release?!?!

[peace frog]

Washington (CNN) -- Not wanting to inflame passions or appear to gloat, President Barack Obama decided Wednesday against releasing a gruesome photo of Osama bin Laden's corpse.

"There's a long history of images like that being used to rally opinion against people, to turn people into heroes," White House press secretary Jay Carney said.

A senior Democratic official close to the White House told CNN that Obama was "never in favor" of releasing a photo.

The photo decision -- following intense debate within the administration and by the public -- came as the United States continued pressing the Pakistani government on how it could not have known the al Qaeda leader was living near a military academy in Abbottabad when he was killed by U.S. special forces early Monday

I see Obamas track record for honesty and working for the peoples interest and well being as a liar he has no intetions of being honest he is lying to us all and laughing at us because nobody can say anything to the contrary ,he also knows he can say anything and if there is no evidence so what I am the president and its true because he said it was the president needs only cheap worthless words to the world how to make a lie  into a fake truth.
