I wouldn't matter how he handled it. The same people would always complain, just as Bush had his never satisfied set of complainers.

Basically, there is a subset of people that are convinced Obama is an untrustowrthy secret Muslim socialist who makes bad decisions because he is an inexperienced leader bent on destroying the country. His every action will be bent to fit that narrative.

Just like, for 8 years, there were people who were convinced George Bush was a corrupt corporate-shilling moron who was mind controlled by evil neocons, particularly by his VP Cheney. Everything he did was read though that lens.

But the people who do this will never see themselves in each other, and will remain convinced they are totally justified while the other guys were hateful nutcases and idiots.

SMH.

Obama: Here are the photos, along with the DNA results.
Cons: Not enough, we want proof.
Obama: What kind of proof do you need?
Cons: Photos and DNA evidence.
Obama: Here are the photos and DNA evidence.
Cons: That's not proof.

And on and on and on and on.

It sounds like an old "Who's on first" Abbot and Costello routine.

[Obama's reasons for not releasing them now are sound]
What was your opinion when we were told they would be released?

Panetta said they would be released, not President Obama.

I think it was a wise decision not to release them.

Well put.

Don't forget, when (if) the surviving wife of bin Laden speaks, the creeps herein will believe every single word she says.

But, you are on here posting your opinion on the matter. How does that show no interest?

They already do believe what she has said. She said that OBL was killed and they believe her. Like she would say "no, that's the wrong guy!"
