WHERE ARE THE ABU GHRAIB PHOTOS?!!!!

[Dover]

Write local/national media sources and ask where the Abu Ghraib photos are, that were legally required to be released today! Not a peep about it, and no lead up stories either. The press needs to apply the pressure or provide the public with answers as to why they have not been released. We need to hold their feet to the fire on this.

1. Do you think they'd care if we did email them?

Sounds like they forgot on purpose.

[Dover]

But there was a court order to release them, so what's the story?

Surely there is ONE news source on this story...

3. I can't even find mention of it on ACLU.org!!

What's going on???????

[K-W]

4. Is the day over yet?

If you were trying to dump documents while reducing coverage, would you do it before lunch, or more towards the end of the day?

5. Too late. Durbin caved. Old news.

n/t

6. HUH?

Can you provide more details?

[Dr Fate]

16. Detail: Don't expect any top DEMs to back you up.

Dont expect any top DEMs to go on TV and call for the release of these photos. Instead of fighting to expose Bush, WE are the ones apologizing.

The "strategists" who lost the last 3 elections advised Durbin to cave. They have decided that telling/finding the truth about this matter "makes us look weak on defense."

The fact that we are torturers is "old news" to the Dems with media access- just like the DSM. Deal with it.

7. I'm wondering that myself. Perhaps the ACLU is

reviewing them, or planning to release them on Monday rather during the Friday "news dump"?

[Dover]

9. Is the ACLU in charge of their release, the timing, etc.?

I doubt it.

[Stirk]

10. I have no idea.

But I thought the photos and video were being sent to them.

8. Maybe(hopefully), they are holding until Plamegate is resolved...not

wanting to take attention away from that. I am arraid Bush would welcome the release of the photos now, because the repugs would just claim it was "hazing", not torture, and call the dems pussies for taking up for the terrorists.

11. At BEST they will release them in their Friday Dump after the news.

Otherwise they will stonewall until hell freezes over.

[warrens]

12. It's not Friday NIGHT yet

After 6 p.m. eastern, preferably around 9 when deadlines are past.

[cyberpj]

13. I'm betting ACLU will review and release them at best possible time

not today.

[Sydnie]

15. They did the same thing with the documents too, didn't they?

They took the time to catalog them, summarize them, then post them. I would imagine they will do the same thing with the photos. Didn't that take a few weeks with the documents?

edit- my brain has melted from the heat - spelling error

[cyberpj]

17. Yes. And we should give them the time they need to do the best job.

14. Republican Party=Abu Gharaib

I was hoping to share these photos with my Republican associates to illustrate the global effects of their ideology.
