i don't think they have any control over them, just from the fact that ANY of them got through. if they actually had them all, and the only copies, they'd have NEVER been seen by we the people.

repub asshole lindsey graham says dump em all and get the damage overwith, others disagree, saying it'll make things worse. as if.
and still others want only congress to actually see them, and not we, the slowly awakening people.

2. I say release them all now.
And let's get about jailing all those responsible from the Cabinet on down.

3. Levin and Graham want ALL OF THEM TO COME OUT. If these
two don't prevail, we will have a trickle coming out from other sources. But they will come out.

4. I would think dump them. It
would get more people to pay attention. Even something as horrific as this will eventually just make viewers just think it's the same old story. It has to be done so people will wake up and listen and realize just what they would be voting for in November.

5. I think they do have control of the new ones. IF they are smart they
will release them all @ once. Since they aren't very smart if they are released @ all, it will be dripped.

I truly believe that they have control of all the remaining photos. IF they didn't habe control they'd be out to the press already.

6. you see,
now they can claim repugs called for photos/video to be released,
while the repuke-controlled congress can claim they need to be locked for "security" purposes.

8. Pull the bandaide!
When I was growing up and my mom had to remove a bandaid she would tell me that it would hurt less to just pull it fast then to pull it slow. She was right--let's get it over with.

9. dumped, less desensitization
If they drip out people will become desensitized and the media will have likely moved on to other things.

If they are all released now it could prove so graphic that it ratchets up the outrage against the administration.

12. Who selects which photos and video?
And exactly how many will NOT be released? Is the Bush philosophy - hey, you've seen one gang rape, you've seen them all? There are most likely dozens of videos of rapes, lethal and non-lethal beatings, attack dogs savaging helpless prisoners and god knows what else!
I never knew I could feel this sickened by anything!
