Captain Richard Phillips FREED - a glorious Easter Sunday!
The Daily Change ^ | 04122009 | TDC

Posted on 04/12/2009 12:26:53 PM PDT by TheDailyChange

Less than an hour ago, Captain Richard Phillips of the Maersk ALABAMA was freed from the hands of evil by the joint effort of his own courage and boldness and the swift and decided action of the American Navy Seals! Moments like this reinforce our emphasis on the need for a continued strong national defense policy. Our nation’s military program is not an area we should cut funding for but rather we should create incentives for our young men and women who want to serve and protect Americans and America while bettering their own lives. A BIG THANK YOU TO OUR NAVY SEALS.

Glory be to God on this glorious Easter Sunday and a very Happy Easter to all!

Seems almost like a resurrection on Easter Sunday. I assumed he was as good as dead with ZerObama in charge, so a big thanks to the SEALs.

Capt. Richard Phillips shakes the hand of Cmdr. Frank Castellano (l.), commanding officer of USS Bainbridge, after being rescued by U.S Naval Forces off the coast of Somalia.

Of course the Navy Seals deserve all credit.
I have been boisterous in my condemnation of Obama., I only hope he authorised their use. If so ,I have to credit him with doing something right.

3 out of the 4 pirates dead, too bad, hopefully the last is badly wounded.

Nero fiddled while Rome burned. obozo ate pizza while the hostage floated.

Thank goodness the hostage is freed with no thanks to the pizza-eatin’ White House.

Sounds like the Captain instigated action by jumping overboard a second time, and the Navy responded.

Took guts. Let’s not let the limp-wristed take credit for this heros actions.

A hearty “Job Well Done” to the Seals team, a huge “Thank You” to God Almighty, and I’m guessing there’ll be details to savor later on.

If I were a ship captain and had to sail through that area, I’d have a few RPGs to discourage those creeps.

Praise God from whom all blessings flow! It is truly a Happy Easter for the captain, his family and crew. Our Navy SEALS rock!

NOW we need to make sure that “The Law Of The Sea Treaty”, which gives the UN all rights over the oceans is NEVER RATTIFIED by the Senate!

They may not be afraid of America as a whole but I’ll bet they are afraid of Americas SEALS now.
