I dunno. The skeptical side of me thinks Bush and Co. photoshopped an old post-mortem picture of the Clantons and McLaurey’s taken after the Gunfight at the OK Corral.

**PoorYorick** , I know their (our) credability is shot. That was the point of my post where I said **"I guess since they finally have some proof they figure they better show everyone that they weren’t lying.**

You said they have no other choice. For once the US is caving into to the demands of the critics? Was George W afraid his pants were actually going to catch fire?

These pics are nothing more than photo ops for GWB’s reelection campaign.

Hmm…Call me unimpressed. While I have absolutely nothing but disdain for the circumstances in which we’ve gotten ourselves involved in this war, and while I think Fox news isn’t the bastion of balanced journalism, these pictures have been on many media outlets (as stated), and, in my opinion as a journalist, are absolutely defensible and, dare I say, journalistically responsible.

I don’t call it sensationalism, and I’m sorry if some person’s cozy weltanshauung has been shaken by the fairly tepid images, but visual evidence in a claim that the US has killed the number two and three henchmen is quite necessary. It ain’t definite proof, but something better to go on than the government’s say-so.

If the point is that you’re a weasel, then yes, I do get it.

No, see, you still don’t get it. That’s really too bad.  
And yes, I will concede, that if MSNBC and CNN had the pictures on their homepage, then they too deserve a hearty fuck you.

War is messy and ugly. They show show more stuff like this.

\<shrug\> I’ve seen worse roadkill. Their faces are almost in one piece, big fucking deal. Also, does this rant fall into the “I just saw something mildly controversial and ran off to the SDMB to be the first person to pen a lame four line rant in the pit” category? I think it does. Nice swipe at FoxNews there though, got to know your audience. I give you a 3. Out of 100.

That’s because Uday was shot in the face.

I’m not celebrating the deaths of these two assholes, but it’s good to know their exact status.

And yes, I agree that the whole war is a Bush re-election thing.

They had them on the television. What does that deserve? By the way, what did you have for lunch?

Sorry I’ve lived a charmed little life and don’t usually like seeing things like this… Can you fucking read? I admitted that if the same thing had happened (the pics out there with no link) at MSNBC or CNN I would be equally as outraged.

So yeah, thanks for playing, next time read the whole fucking thread before you crap out your mouth like this.

I said the same thing when _al Jazeera_ was showing those pictures of killed US servicemen back in April. If we’re going to have something as disgusting and inhuman as a war, let’s see _all_ sides of it, not just the rah-rah jingoistic flag-waving.

When _do_ you like seeing things like this? And no, I can’t read. I have a damn hard time using the boards as a result, but I manage to get along, somehow…

I wouldn’t be surprised if they come out of Photoshop instead.

BTW are there still Fotomats around? I haven’t seen one in many, many years. Not that I’ve been looking though.

Yes, but have you seen Ethel? I think she fits better with the OP. 😃

If this means that you’re using their death pictures as your desktop, color me sickened.

Please. I see more disturbing images in movie theaters. They aired them on my local news (CBS, _not_ FOX), with a big WARNING: THESE IMAGES ARE DISTURBING AND GRAPHIC sort of disclaimer, which I found them not to be so much.

Yeah and once again, my point was that [foxnews.com](http://foxnews.com) had no big warning, the pics were just there when you opened up the homepage. If they had such a warning, I would not have clicked the link or if morbid curiousity got the best of me, waited until I was finished eating.
