God help us if we get hit with another 9-11 scale attack....

Sadly, that might be the only thing that would wake up the general population to this administration's inadequacies.

“Piracy is not a new phenomenon. (DUH!)

We learned how to eradicate piracy centuries ago. YOU WIPE OUT THE PIRATE PORTS.

From Madagascar to Port Royal, pirates cannot exist unless they have sanctuaries where they are tolerated, where they can buy and sell their cargos, and refit ships for pirate mission.

Wipe out the pirate ports, you wipe out the pirates.

Chasing pirates on the high seas (while permitting their safe havens to exist) is a fool’s errand.

Reagan would have craterized their ports last week. Libya comes to mind”

Well, I’m just a girl, but I’m impressed with your knowledge about this and your calling Reagan’s courage as a President to mind.

The President and his Rats have scattered into their darkened holes
protected by the lights of the MSM on the outside, looking out.
Fitting for an eighth grade student, not the President of the free world.


Obama has conducted himself as an enemy of freedom in less than 100 days.

“The approach is quintessential Obama....”

Translation: The chickens have come home to roost and obuma doesn’t know how to pluck them.

I understand that the Navy destroyer was as much as a mile away from the lifeboat containing the pirates and hostage. If true it should have been closer.

No, it would have been too embarrassing for Obama if the destroyer got so close that the pirates were able to board it and take control of it.

“Wipe out the pirate ports, you wipe out the pirates.”

Preach it, Brother.

Maybe the dummies in the White House will unplug their ears and hear it!

How could only 4 terrorists/pirates board an armed Navy destroyer and take control of it? Please elucidate.
