3. Well, earlier to day, I went to Faux Snooze and read one of their comment sections...
...the Freepers think Obama is great and is finally coming around because he is fighting the release of the photos.

That is enough to tell me it is absolutely the wrong move.

5. I'm as Liberal as they come and i dunno guys..I think it might be the Right Move to NOT release
I was thinking this through and although i am pretty liberal as they get i can see the logic behind not releasing these photos...For me i can just seet this as fodder to drive those extremist groups to fight America even more. I can see the benefits of releasing them but i can also see potential dangers too and its possible that negative could outway the upside of release int he first place. Gtranted the release continues the idea of transparent government which is ALWAYS a great thing but in this case it just doesnt amount to too much of a benefit.

Personally, as i think long about it i can see why the administration changed its mind...especially if the photos are really hardcore...it could undermine the work he is trying to do in other countires right now....

If i were the administration i wouldnt release them now BUT will release them in maybe a couple of years when other important peace talks have completed.
