Jimmy Carter without balls meets a captain who carries his around in a wheelbarrow.

Captain Richard Phillips would make a fine Presidential Cabinet appointee; unfortunately he is not qualified for that post.

He has paid his taxes.

Phillips & wife (to their credit) look like they’re doing their ‘duty’ by being there....but not enjoying it....look at their body language (especially hers)...very stiff.

President Barack Obama met Saturday with a US cargo ship captain who was held hostage by Somali pirates last month before a dramatic high-seas rescue by US Navy snipers.

Okay Captain Phillips, here's what I expect from you and this is what I will do for you in return if you play along...don't disappoint me with my political endeavors.

Probably wanted to interrogate him in hope of getting proof that the SEAL’s violated orders by shooting.

Did the Cap’n make sure he had his wallet on him when he left?

...you can rest assured that Capt Phillips and his wife have more protocol knowledge....and there won't be a “Joe the Plumber” moment. *grins*

Obama pirated more money out of me than the pirates did.

If I were Capt. Phillips, I would have asked him one question: “What the hell took you so long?”
