Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton said, "We are bringing to bear a number of our assets, including naval and FBI, in order to resolve the hostage situation and bring the pirates to justice.""

How about making these douchbags into shark bait? That's the only way this will stop.

This situation must be dealt with before any of the other ships held by the "pirates" show up. If they are able to get to the scene and this is still playing out you idiots will really have your s**t soup.

The damn Obamaprompter must be on the fritz again.

Quintessential deer in the headlights.

True to form, President Barack Obama is striking a cautious, low-profile public stance as the piracy crisis plays out

Cowards usually do this.

[DouglasKC]

The approach is quintessential Obama, who as a candidate and now as president has tended to let tenuous dramas unfold without remark unless he absolutely must, lest his words or actions adversely influence a precarious situation.

Translated: The polling hasn't come back yet to tell him how to react.

Critics say US should attack Somali pirates’ land bases

Is it time to replace bluewater policing with tactics of Jefferson, who defeated the Barbary pirates on land?

Maybe he should just go over there, get on TV for all the world to see and apologize for our arrogance That will put an end to it. Oh wait...

...I’m suprised that this incident didn’t coincide with Obama making a public apology to Blackbeard.

[toddausauras]

Think of it, he couldn't even just make a simple and appropriate denunciation of the Aqua-terrorists! Would that have been so GD hard? So in other words he is giving the Aqua-terrorists the impression that what they are doing is ok.

Sheesh if the lips of the media were any more firmly planted on Obama's butt they'd all be dead of ASSphyxiation.

"I like to know what I'm talking about before I speak,"...

Or, I'm dumber than any 12 random stumps and maybe it will all go away.

[GatorGirl]

The spin I heard on FOX tonight was that it’s merely piracy and the POTUS has more important things to do and to address it would elevate these criminals.

He seemed annoyed when asked about it. He couldn’t even express concern for the US citizen being held hostage and congratulate the crew for their actions in regaining control of their ship!

Zero is un-freaking-believable!!!

[MaxMax]

It's above his pay grade.. And he's not throwing the Ball at the Nationals.

Obama is an inexperienced, affirmative action educated COWARD!

[Jagdgewehr]

Asked by reporters about the piracy Thursday, Obama declined to respond. Same again on Friday.

It is very simple to understand. He doesn't know what to say or how to respond. Most Americans haven't figured this out yet, but Hussein is clearly in way over his head as POTUS. His tactic will be to hide, defer or prattle foolishly and incoherently when he is faced with really difficult problems. It is the MSM that is trying to delude the American people into the belief that he is smart and engaged.

These so called pirate's, are islamic terrorist from somalia the same people that brought us Black Hawk Down and desecrated our American servicemen. They're his comrades buddies, this is why he says nothing. Remember the bow to the king? Not so undercover muslim brother....IMO They,the terrorist,will be paid and released but we'll never hear about it..

Jimmy Carter advises waiting 444 days. No need to rush, Zero.

“The approach is quintessential Obama....”
