President Obama's decision not to release the Bin Laden photos has riled up Sarah Palin

In a speech in Alabama, the Tea Party darling said denying the world a look at the ghoulish photos of the Al Qaeda chief was akin to "pussy-footing around."

"Don't do kind of that birth certificate whole mocking of Americans for asking for it," Palin said in a speech in Point Clear, Ala., hours before Obama put the kibosh on releasing the photos.

After resisting for years, Obama released his long-form birth certificate last week to silence those who doubted he is American born.

Earlier Wednesday, Obama told CBS "60 Minutes" that he's barring release of the Osama photos to avoid inciting "additional violence" or to have them used as a "propaganda tool."

"We don't trot out this stuff as trophies," Obama said.

White House officials added that soldiers abroad could be put in greater danger by releasing the photos.

But Palin, whose son served in the Army in Iraq. immediately countered the decision Wednesday by tweeting her disagreement.

"Show the photos as a warning to others seeking America's destruction," Palin posted on Twitter shortly after Obama revealed his final decision.

"No pussy-footing around, no politicking, no drama; it's part of the mission," wrote the failed 2008 Republican vice presidential candidate.

The night before her online tweet, she was giving a 50-minute speech at a fund-raiser for a group the helps special needs children when she spoke of Osama's death.

"No games. Just release the photos and get it over with," said the former Alaskan governor, according to  the website of the Baldwin Press-Register newspaper.

She added that the president was giving fodder to conspiracy theorists, "especially in some Arab nations."

"We are anxious for the photos, the proof, to be revealed so that we can show those terrorists and say, 'We contained [Bin Laden], we contained that hatred and that evil, and we have the pictures to prove it.'"

While she differed with Obama on the photos, she praised the president's chutzpah for getting Bin Laden.

"I think the president made the right call and knew that we needed to get in there and strike hard," Palin said.
