Obama can't bring himself to even mount a military rescue effort to free the hostage, let alone use military force to wipe out these pirates.

I'm afraid that he will, and it will be a multi-death disaster. Remember Carter and Desert One?

“I’m afraid that he will, and it will be a multi-death disaster. Remember Carter and Desert One”?

Remember that it was Carter’s wishy washy limp wristed foreign policy(sound familiar) that led to the fall of the Shah and the rise of radical islam in the first place. Carter placed a bag of crap at the door of the US military and rang the bell.

Who doesn’t think the despots, terrorists and lunatics(often the same thing) are watching right now and laughing and basing their next moves off of Obama’s dithering?

“Now I’m really depressed”.

What you should say is “I have B.O”.

Like I said in another thread. Western civilization no longer has the will to defend itself. Yes, we are fighting two wars, but are we fighting those wars to win as quickly as possible? How is it possible that it has taken longer to win in Iraq than to win WWII?

Now we can’t even blow a pirate ship.

The Somalis were among the first to test Clinotn's mettle.

He failed.
