"The pirates transferred the 53-year-old Phillips, a Vermont native, to a lifeboat. But the pirates had not counted on the U.S. military's resolve. After a five-day standoff during which a small U.S. flotilla tailed the lifeboat, Navy SEAL snipers on a destroyer shot and killed three pirates and plucked an unharmed Phillips to safety. A fourth pirate surrendered."
On Sunday I could not believe that it took this long to do this.....we have these crazy pirates taking an American flagged ship....then sitting in a lifeboat with one hostage...out of gas.....wanting 2 million. I said, send in the snipers and on the count of three ....end this issue. Obama comnmanded just that!
Now a couple of insights....mine of course.
President Obama...WTG...as commander and chief...you did well. Many in the world have applauded your actions....funny though, if Cowboy George had made the decision I am sure they would have condemned the action. The same people who applauded the action did say however....violence may increase due to our aggression.....I don't think so you marsh mellows....at least not against American ships. I am sure the pirates will still continue to take ships....15 YTD in 2009 alone....but they won't be American ships....it's just business for the pirates...they do not hate us or anyone else, they want the money. They will pick on the skinny weak kid and let the big dog sail right on by....
Another thing you should watch is the coverage on this issue. You will not see the main stream media tie Obama to the issue. They will not say he directed the event....that would be too much "Bush" for them to handle....too much "Reagan". But maybe, just maybe Obama will be strong, unlike Clinton and Carter who allowed our country to be run by the UN and become weak.
Go out and read the press on this issue, How is this not the biggest news of the day?
#1 job of the President.....keep our country safe. Good Job!
