FUBO's weakness and ineptitude are producing dividends.

Order more pizza, maybe it will just go away.

Obama flies in caviar and Lobster tails in time for dinner. That’s about as close as he is going to get to Sea matters.

That makes 20 Americans held hostage around the world. And the Obscenity in Chief struts the stage with his thumb in his butt.

Don’t worry our fearless leader has a “plan”.

Somalia needs to be turned into a 246,000 sq. mile parking lot.

That would pretty much take care of the pirate problem, and a lot of other problems too.

That’s right. We always talk about copy cat killers when there is a shooting at a school or something. But we will have open season on shipping now that they see that the O doesn’t have a brain cell in his head. In fact, his head is simply a place to hang his big ears, (with which he’ll “listen” to the grievances of the pirates and then send them large sums of cash).

Something tells me that soon Obama will hold a news conference, at which time TOTUS will solve the problem...Obama style.

Gosh, its almost like they arent afraid of our Navy ships watching them. Every cop soon learns a sobering lesson, pointing a gun at someone *often* does not does not make them do what you say.

Obama getting sent to school by those Somalians. Not only do they know Obama, the all know they drove us out once under Clinton.

What would Reagan have done?

He would have looked the pirates dead in the eye and said, "Harm one hair on an American's head and you'll be dead."

The end of hijacking American vessels.

Barry is such a wimp. He doesn't know if he should s**t or wind his watch.

Billy Ayers and his nautical metaphors are going to pay dividends when the time comes for TOTUS to actually address this.

- Sailors on a Panama-flagged bulk carrier repulsed a pirate attack with water hoses. Nato officials on a nearby Portuguese warship said an unexploded rocket-propelled grenade landed in the commanding officer’s cabin

So the pirates have AK-47s and we are using water hoses against them. That would be OK if this were the first or second hijacking, but this has been going on for years. Time to fight bullets with bullets. Kill them all, let Allah sort them out.

And the rest of the world is laughing at us, especially Iran, who is likely drawing inspiration from these pirates.
