President Barack Obama reversed his decision to release detainee abuse photos from Iraq and Afghanistan after Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al Maliki warned that Iraq would erupt into violence and that Iraqis would demand that U.S. troops withdraw from Iraq a year earlier than planned, sources told McClatchy.

How about Obama Caused Obama's Abuse Photo Flip-Flop? There's always some one else to blame or point the finger at in Demodipshitworld, isn't there?

It was on Bush's watch. Obama can do no wrong.
-AllAmericanunity

I believe that Maliki found out about these pictures being released and quashed them about as believable as that Geithner was one of the architects of the AIG bailout and didn't know about AIG executive bonuses until January '09

It was on Bush's watch. Bush could do no right.

Reality


" I don't see what the problem with the pictures are. I use them in a slide-show whenever me and my buddies are knocking back scotch and shooting staked out quail. If anybody with me has a proble with them, I just shoot him in the face."

DeFacto President Cheney.

the photos should come out. Obama promised "open" government; The American People deserve the truth about the Iraq debacle, no matter how ugly it is

If he continues on this path of breaking promise after promise, he is gonna be a one term president

Obama would have vengefully released all the photos to undermine his predecessor were it not for the discovery of serious consequences that might result.

Obama shunned National Day of Prayer and bowed to Saudi King --- which even Saudi peasants do not do.

Obama slighted America's friend and loyal ally by returning the bust of Churchill (this will go down in history as Obama's midget spirit and meanness) and then telling Turkey the contribution of Islam to America.

And now Obama is proving to be a danger to the well-being of Israel.

Obama secretly wish to promote Islam in America, as a favor to some of his relatives who are Muslims.

And the liberals are still blindly following their messiah.

Islam destroyed the Paris of the Middle East --- Lebanon. Islam is in the process of overwhelming Europe and imposing dark laws against women and freedom of religion.

And the liberals are still blindly following their messiah.

Obama could create world peace, cure all disease, and make it so every baby conceived was wanted, and some posters here would complain that he took too long to do it.

Well let's be honest here, are we talking a month or a year?

-Takeziktziktziktzi

Takeitz - Bush is a crusader for what is good and right.

lmao

did you forget Bandar Bush and the Bush Crime family ties to the Saudis? (Carlyle Group)

or are you a two faced, hypocritical, non-Christian that uses the bible to justify war on those pesky brown people in the middle east?

So much for that whole greeted as liberators thing....

Get the troops out of harms way then release. Promise kept, troops safe.


The only story here seems to be that Maliki was also against releasing these pics, along with the US Military in Iraq, as was stated when he declined to release them.

FF for Joe's #10.

Sure....much like when Bush blames the troops for not getting us out if Iraq on his watch:

"Ignoring the fact that we have a system of civilian control over the military, which is why he, the elected president, is designated the commander in chief, Bush hides behind the fiction that the officers in the field are calling the shots when in fact he has put them in an unwinnable situation and refuses to even consider a timetable for getting them out.

He did it again Monday, responding to the prospect that both houses of Congress seem in agreement on setting guidelines for the "progress" that the president continually proclaims is at hand. "I will strongly reject an artificial timetable [for] withdrawal and/or Washington politicians trying to tell those who wear the uniform how to do their job." This is disingenuous in the extreme, because Bush is the Washington politician who plotted this unnecessary war from the moment the 9/11 attack provided him with an excuse for regime change in a country that had nothing to do with the terrorist attack."

"...released all the photos to undermine his predecessor ..."

Yeah, truth has a way of doing that.

Islam destroyed the Paris of the Middle East --- Lebanon.

Actually it was reagan and Israel, Takeit, two legs of your holy trinity, Dubya being the third.

Wanna bet if Obama had released the pictures that the righties would be howling in faux outrage over every KIA in Iraq?

Mind you, they never really seemed all that upset over the first 4,300 Martyrs for President Bush.

It is unfortunate that we have to wade through screw ups and possible screw ups while FLOP EARS tries to lean how to be a president.

Thank goodness! I got my FLOP EARS fix before I have to go.

Thanks Ooze!

so Maliki wants to stay in power

and, unlike previous administrations, Obama gives a shit how many Iraqis and US infantry die

Sooooo....What about Bush???

Don't worry about Shrub, he's got a 100,000 acre retreat in Paraguay, where they do not have any extradition treaties with anybody.

Unlike chimp ears, who left the WH as incompetent as he entered. It's becoming increasingly clear that Dubya was just "the meat puppet you'd most like to have a beer with" for Cheney and the gang.
You have to admire Cheney though, he recognized early that the GOPpers would elect a tree stump President if it had the Bush name attached to it. Like PT Barnum, that other genius of hokem, he knew a GOP suckers was born again every minute.

I'll believe that there ARE abuse photos when I see them. Until then, I won't adhere to the speculations of politicians...

Wait a second. If Maliki says that the pictures would cause the US to have to leave a year earlier than planned then Obama should be 100% behind showing them. He could have had a shot at his 16 month's dead line for retreating. He doesn't have a prayer of hitting that goal, as I have said form the beginning. We will leave Iraq at the same time we would have if Bush were still in office. Nothing has changed concerning policy in Iraq, and it is just another of Obama's campaign lies for him to make people think that something would change.

Bullshit. And he hasn't done anything close to any of those things to begin with. He is being rightfully criticized for his mistakes and you just can't handle your beloved one to suffer any criticism.

#18... Northguy3....

Sounds like Northguy is a spokesperson for Hezbollah.

Bush hides behind the fiction that the officers in the field are calling the shots when in fact he has put them in an unwinnable situation and refuses to even consider a timetable for getting them out.-Common Sense

If he hid behind that then he hid behind the reality of the situation. Bush relied heavily on advice from his commanders on the ground and made policy out of what he learned from those commanders. And I challenge you to go to any military man or woman and ask them if we are losing in Iraq. You say Bush put them in an unwinnable situation yet they are winning on every front. We have won every battle that has taken place and we are winning the overall war. Your hatred for all things Bush doesn't allow you to see the realities on the ground. Make no mistake about it, we are winning. If we weren't, do you think there would be serious talks about us pulling out relatively soon?

OH shit.

What do liberals and Muslims have in common? Many of the former hates America's Christian heritage, and many Muslims hate America itself. No wonder Hussein Obama is a darling to both.

OK OK, I admit at least Obama will not go this far...

What does takeit and doorknobs have in common? Their IQs.

Find the word "Jesus" or "Christ" in either the Declaration of Independence or the Constitution. Then again, find anything in the Bible that says abortion is murder or that the fetus is a person.

I see where little worthless black boy who is soiling the White House told his assclown marxist pieces of shit in hollywood that " they have'nt seen nothing yet ", for once in his life, obamiac told the truth, we have'nt seen anything yet?
Anything that would help America recover, if he had not fucked with the Market, the economy would have recovered, his billionaire cronies are getting richer off the middle class.

We will leave Iraq at the same time we would have if Bush were still in office. Nothing has changed concerning policy in Iraq, and it is just another of Obama's campaign lies for him to make people think that something would change.

True.

But why do we have to put up with him talking before thinking?

As far as "Phony Excuses" go this one is a real Dilly!!! Sure Obama blame it on the US Govt's "Puppet Dictator" in Iraq - hey why not blame or just even suggest that Maliki is interested in acquiring "yellow cake" from Africa? Maybe save that one Mr.Obama for your next zionist "con"!!!

After the Dutch cartoon drama, how could Obama need Maliki to warn him about this? Unlike the cartoons, this stuff is real. Who at this point doesn't know that a sizable majority of people in this part of the world are reactionary lunatics?

common sense caused obama's change there is no gain in relesein photos all loss -it is well know that in islamic world one picture of a naked arab far outweighs a video of a infidel bein beheaded -as long as anythin radical islam does is glossed over and everythin we do is dramatized we are handicaped in propoganda war

Maliki Caused Obama's Abuse Photo Flip-Flop
Obama never makes his own decisions. The finger is always pointed at someone else, and the O'tards eat it up. Bush never thought he was responsible for anything either.

1. Lebanon was referred to as the RIVIERA of the Middle East, not Paris.

2. Israel attacks Lebanon every few years during a Republican fake Presidency.

3. Why don't the Jews in IRAN move to Israel if Muslim are so "overwhelming and imposing"?


On topic, this is the dialogue I've been waiting to observe. In simple terms for you half-wit "conservatives" - if the United States were to incite more hatred for Americans we might have to incarcerate many, many more soldiers who participated in torture activities than we otherwise will be "letting off the hook". This is a compromise, but Republicans are still in denial regarding the massive civilian abuses at the hands of American military. You morons are too dangerous.

Imo, President Maliki is quite correct, but for the wrong reasons. The problem is that a number of videos and photos were leaked looooong, long ago proving coalition involvement in illegal, immoral and unethical behavior that easily constitute war crimes. The CIA allegedly scrubbed their own video "interrogations", but that was generally predictable. A next step might be to rebuild Iraq and involve Iran for contracting, but with Israel playing it's war games with United States authority over Iran it's an unlikely, but healthful scenario. There could be nuclear detonations throughout every Israeli city until they scurry out from under the Pentagon and detach from our national telecommunications, but I believe the Zionists would also deny all of their contractor involvement and actually permit the murder of millions for the hell of it.

I thought us liberals were all unpatriotic for not always standing by everything the President does??

Hmmmmmm....seems the shoe is on the other foot....and yet you still try to claim that liberals are unpatriotic.

PLEASE, PLEASE KEEP USING THAT LINE OF REASONING!!!
It worked SO WELL for the 06 Midterms and the Recent Presidential Election. Keep using it!


BTW....you forgot to call President Obama the Anti-Christ.

BTW....you forgot to call President Obama the Anti-Christ.

That's because he is the Messiah

BHO, not 'the' antichrist. But he can be 'an' antichrist at times. If Commonliberal (#42) cannot understand this clarification, then I can conclude that something is cooking in his brain.

It always seems to come back to the British invasions and then American involvement.

That's what makes the CNN Global (I don't have time to verify which outlet) announcing the collapse of WTC7 22 minutes early. Nobody "knew" building 7's status other than the small fires - but the Brits were all prepared.

Bloody amazing "coincident".
