Is it feasible to compromise on the OBL pics?
Why couldn't they have a "viewing" of the pics/video for say members of congress and
news reporters?

They could control it....no cell phones, cameras, etc.

Seems like they did this once - was it something in the Libby deal? can't remember.

The president said...

You just want to 'compromise' on those? Which ones?

3. that's it. it is all those things and therefore not suitable for general
viewing. But, by allowing controlled and limited viewing (without replication) it adds credence to
the belief that it is most certainly Bin Laden.

2. Do you actually think
that the "news reporters" of Faux, etc. wouldn't find "evidence of photoshop" and other "hints" that the photos aren't real?

I wouldn't put such crap past a fair number of the congress, either.

In a reasonable society your solution would be practical. Of course, a reasonable society wouldn't have Fox News.

4. maybe so...it just strikes me that it wouldn't hurt if the pool of people who have
seen all this is a bit bigger

I LOVE your last sentence.

6. Members of congress have seen the pictures. Reported yesterday.
On a mobile thing now or I would find you a link. Only name coming to mind right this second is Saxby Chambless. A story on either CBS or MSNbc website.

Hope this helps.
