i file FOI's to get candidate lists for football coaching vacancies

it seems though this would be a good use of the law
Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

fat chance anyone gets these photos through a FOI request.

The comments at the end of this are about as frightening as I've read in a long time.

Why do you read the comments sections of the articles you read? I learned a long time ago that the only people compelled to post comments on those things are the wackiest of the wacky. Being shocked by the comments section of a political post is like admitting that you weren't aware that some people are out of their minds.

I just don't see the point in keeping the photographs classified.  It's not like Muslim extremists are going to change their mind based on the release/non-release of the photo.

Obama laid it out pretty clearly.

Quote

"We don't trot this stuff out as trophies," the president told CBS."
...

"There is no doubt that we killed Osama bin Laden," Mr. Obama said in an interview with the CBS News program "60 Minutes," according to an excerpt of an interview that was read to reporters by Jay Carney, the White House press secretary. "We don't need to spike the football."

After intense discussions with his national security team, Mr. Obama decided that the photos were too graphic and could further enflame Bin Laden's followers, Mr. Carney said, but would not change the minds of skeptics. Mr. Obama indicated in the interview that gloating by releasing the photos "is not who we are," Mr. Carney said.

....


Some argued that no matter what the photos showed, they would not silence those who doubt that Bin Laden was killed in the American raid on a fortified house in Abbottabad, Pakistan, early on Monday, which the administration says is established beyond question. "The fact is, you will not see Osama bin Laden walking this earth again," Mr. Obama said in the interview, according to the transcript.

Mr. Carney added at the briefing that the administration felt no need to release the photos to establish that Bin Laden was dead, and that the president had decided it was not "necessary or prudent" to release them.

.....

The White House said that Mr. Obama would take part on Thursday in a wreath-laying ceremony at the Sept. 11 memorial in lower Manhattan. He is also scheduled to meet with relatives of the victims of the 2001 terrorist attacks, but he will not make a speech. The White House invited former president George W. Bush to accompany Mr. Obama in New York, but Mr. Bush declined, his spokesman said.

No, no actually he didn't.  His administration is supposed to the be the most transparent in history, remember?  Wasn't his administration the one pushing for the release of more photos of prisoner abuse, which military officials argued would cause backlash against our military in the Middle East.

Guess what... his sympathizers are already pissed, with or without a photo...

Why is a photo more transparent than DNA evidence, confirmation from US Troops who carried out the assault and his wife identifying him?

People are looking for nonsense non-issues to argue about. Who farging cares if a picture gets released? The dude is dead. farg.

I don't think the photos should be released and I'm sure Osama (sp?) is dead, but how can DNA be used as proof? Did they already have his DNA on file?
