Sniff! My hero.

It was *so* nice of him to let the SEALS save her.

[I bet her parents are glad it’s political grandstanding time]

Thank God and the SEALS she’s safe.

I still can’t believe that Obama green-lighted an operation against his fellow African Mooselimbs!

[Old Sarge]

They were captured three MONTHS ago.

Yet the rescue was timed for the SOTU speech for maximum political effect.

Hey, Mr. Kenyan Muslim:

I'm really happy for her and proud of our SEALs who once again did an outstanding job.

That said, and I recognize she was doing humanitarian work, why would any American set foot in Somalia? The only part of their economy that works is kidnapping Westerners for ransom.

[TexasCajun]

Timing is suspect.

The MSM was all "Obamah rescues hostages" this morning instead of critiquing the state of the Obamah Economy.

[Jack Hydrazine]

Should have dropped a few MOABs on the site and surrounding area where they were rescued.

[matthew fuller]

God bless ALL of our veterans, Navy SEALS, and especially our snipers!

Outstanding work by the SEAL team! Good thing for her it was sweeps night for obama.

Axelrod's cover for the coincidence...

'Officials said that Buchanan's declining health was the factor that triggered the timing of the rescue operation, but Meyer, who spoke with her family Wednesday, said those reports are overstated.'

It will be interesting to see if Buchanan's story jibes with the official legend.

Wow! President Obama is a total he-man and so dedicated to our military he has instructed all cabinet members and White House staff to wear camouflage underwear for the duration of his presidency!

Who said he was a Marxist, military-hating, anti-Israel, pro-Islamic pink, baby-man?

From the NY Post:

"The raiders came in quickly, catching the guards as they were sleeping after having chewed the narcotic leaf qat for much of the evening, a pirate who gave his name as Bile Hussein told The Associated Press by phone. Hussein said he was not present at the site but had spoken with other pirates who were, and that they told him nine pirates had been killed in the raid and three were "taken away."

Bile Hussein! My new favorite nickname!

And, of course, the AP is right there for the staged photo-op of Bile Hussein and the missus reenacting the awesome moment of bravery when Bile jumped in front of the speeding credit and saved the Seal team from getting splattered with it.
