White House photo sparks protest

Yurt said:
really, it was controlled?

Doug Wilson, head of public affairs at the Pentagon, said the department did not know the White House photographer was present and had no idea a photo of the event was being released until it became public. He said the photographers who routinely travel with the defense secretary and the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff were not allowed to go to the event, and no official Pentagon photos were taken or released.

Yes, it was controlled you moron. It was ONE photographer who worked for the WHITE HOUSE who took a photo of the PRESIDENT... you know the guy who WORKS IN THE WHITE HOUSE.

AGAIN... DOES THE PENTAGON ANSWER TO THE PRESIDENT OR THE OTHER WAY AROUND????

you're seriously off the mark here. the whole point was that there be zero photos released to the public. obama disregarded those wishes and the agreement the pentagon established and brought his own photographer and published those photos through HIS media. you can't seriously claim that WH website is not media. you can't seriously claim that the president publishing that photo for a photo op is obama not using the media. good lord, that is the most asinine logic.

yep... read it... DID YOU?

News media coverage of the ceremony had been banned by the Pentagon over the objections of several news organizations.

Do you understand the term NEWS MEDIA???

Just checking, because if you do not, then we need to work on that to start with.

is the height of stupidity to claim that obama publishing the photo on the WH website for a photo op is not media. once obama published that photo, it was in fact media and as we can all see, it had the same effect as if the media was there and releasd the photo.

There's you above claiming that it is the height of stupidity to claim that publishing the photo on the WH website is NOT MEDIA...

and now we have the lies pouring in. i never said the WH photographer is a member of the media.

Now there's you saying the exact opposite...so...which time were you lying?

Let the contortions begin!
 
i had a response but it did not make it

in short:

1: saying something is for media does not mean you're a member of the common term "media"....zappa is just retarded
2. obama's use of the website to publish the photo is use of media. the end result speaks for itself as the photo is now all over the news media.
3. obama's excuse says much, for transparency? there was no need for that here and transparency doesn't requiire a photograph of the president which could have been taken anywhere, anytime (similiar backdrop).
4. if you want to believe the photo op by obama published on the WH website is not media, then you are grossly mistaken as to what media is.
 
Bottom line: Obama didn't spit on any dead people, and there was no "outrage."

Does Yurt ever post anything honest?

it was a metaphor used in hyperbole....but now you admit when you use hyperbole it is a lie. good to know. there was outrage. read the story instead of being a blind hack for once.

and once again --> YOU'RE A LIAR!!!!

really good onceler, you haven't used that one up yet. you know, when you use it as often as you do, the value becomes meaningless.

My goodness! Have you been smoking the same stuff as yurt.
Of course it would not be acceptable. Show me the evidence of your president saying 'F*** you' to the parents or proof of him spitting on coffins. Otherwise you are simply making matters worse. I don't expect you to understand that, but may be.... one day?

My fault for thinking you were intelligent to know what a metaphor was...
Ignoring the wishes of the families of the dead solders is an act of dis respect and a fuckin' disgraceful act for the president to do ...him being ultimately responsible for their deaths....

but then Obama seems to never have heard the line...."the buck stops here".....for him the bucks stopped with President GW Bush.....
 
I saw the picture of the President of the United States paying respects. I didn't see any pictures of the caskets.

Can someone post a link to pictures of the caskets?

There was no outrage. And again - thanks for admitting that you troll.

so you're ok with the president using this as a photo op? honestly, didn't expect that from you. even the pentagon didn't feel that was right.

Debate...with an admitted troll?

Can't address the outrage thing, eh?
Click to expand...

no surprise onceler is too cowardly to debate me.

you could skewer me in a thread where it is just one on one. but you won't. because you're a coward and you know you are full of shit. put up or shut up coward. debating with a "troll" should be easy for you. but you are too scared, because you know without ad homs, without your usual insults, you have nothing.

click the link in the OP. though i know you must defend obama at every turn. it is the same hack behavior as those who blame bush for everything.

I read the article. Quote it. I didn't see anything about the Pentagon's feelings on the matter.

I read the article. Very little, if anything, that you said was in there, is not. Certainly not the "outrage."

You'd do better to just admit it at this point. You're clearly floundering.
 
Onceler said:
LOL

Thanks for admitting you lied about all of that....

i'm not surprised you're so afraid to have a one on one debate with me. if you can't use insults, you have nothing. come on big boy, you are so smart, so awesome......but you can't bring yourself to have the courage to debate me.

yeah.....keep on with the --> YOU'RE A LIAR, YOU CAN'T READ etc.....much easier than proving yourself

I am debating you. We're debating all of the "outrage" that you have claimed regarding this photo "incident." This is what people do in debate - they ask for clarification, and some indication of outrage, anywhere, regarding this.

I'm still waiting on that, btw.
