While Hillary Clinton thought the pirate situation was funny, our great US Navy did not. They took it seriously and rescued the Captain while killing three of the four Islamic pirates. This is a wonderful Easter gift for the brave Captain Phillips and his family. God blessed them.

HoooooYAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!
Great news!
Obama called the situation an “annoyance”. I call the resolution a miracle.
Wait and see.
Not a miracle. Just training, preparation, determination, and the proper application of jacketed hollow-points.
Looks like this makes Obama a war criminal. He did not give them a fair trial.
Obama is deeply saddened
I knew our president would come though he is a true and patriotic leader
Looks like the pirates just go tossed under the bus.
Amazing what dispatch Obama shows when he realizes he’s about to become a laughingstock.
Of course, in this instance, “dispatch” simply means telling the Captain of the Bainbridge: “oh all right, let the SEALS go ahead.”
Prayers answered! Thanks be to God! An Easter miracle.
It would show some real cojones if he followed it up with some punitive bombing but don’t hold your breath.
Hell yeah!
He will claim it all for himself, with the support of the MSM.
Obama is NO US patriot. Our Navy is who came through, they deserve the credit.
Hmmm something tells me we’re gonna regret not killing the fourth guy when we had the chance.
That is what should happen. They should go on a search and destroy mission.
FOX is reporting that Phillips dived into the water and that allow the navy to start shooting at the lifeboat.
Here’s one for the heroes -
The Navy Hymn
Lyrics by Reverend William Whiting and Music by Reverend John B. Dyke
Eternal Father, strong to save,
Whose arm hath bound the restless wave,
Who bidd’st the mighty ocean deep,
Its own appointed limits keep.
Oh hear us when we cry to Thee,
For those in peril on the sea! Amen.
Eternal Father, lend Thy grace To
those with wings who fly thro’ space,
Thro wind and storm, thro’ sun and rain,
Oh bring them safely home again.
Oh Father, hear an humble prayer,
For those in peril in the air! Amen.
Oh Trinity of love and pow’r,
Our brethren shield in danger’s hour,
From rock and tempest, fire and foe,
Protect them where so e’er they go.
Thus evermore shall rise to Thee
Glad hymns of praise from land and sea! Amen.
Captain Phillips had to initate his own rescue by getting away from his captors & jumping into shark infested water yet again.
THIS time our magnificent Navy apparently wasn’t forced to stand down & watch helplessly.
Thank you, God for a wonderful Easter miracle.
Thank you, our wonderful Navy & our brave SEALS who got the job done, not because but in spite of our worthless CIC.
God bless Captain Phillips and his family. They all suffered far longer than was necessary thanks to the absolute incompetence of BO.
I DO NOT want to hear a peep out of him or Hillary today.
