Obama will be “extremely lucky” if this is the “test” that some were talking about...

Look at the “test” that Reagan had. Obama can’t even match up to Reagan, no matter how hard he tries... :-)


A previous post of mine below...

Well, an interesting thing happened on the way to Free Republic for me, yesterday..., it just started with a simple post yesterday and two little items on it... I never intended for the following list to come about... LOL...

Here’s where it all started, and then some FReepers started giving me some more events.. :-)

THEN... it turned into this...

It’s a good comparison of what Obama is doing now, and you can compare it to what Reagan did in his terms in office (Oh wow!...)...

Pirates opened fired as a small U.S. Navy team approached the enclosed lifeboat on which an American was being held hostage in waters off the coast of Somalia, CBS News correspondent Kimberly Dozer reports.

I don't know if I am more fearful or more embarrassed to be an American presently.

"If there were ever a U.S. victim of one of these attacks or a U.S. shipping line that were a victim, our Justice Department has said that it would favorably consider prosecuting such apprehended pirates"

Oh, THAT'LL learn 'em all right!

All this would be ordered if those in power had the guts to destroy each and every pirate base on the Somalian coast. Then again, that would entail having a pair and democrats seem unable to grow any. The same goes with rinos.

I may be completely wrong here, but if I were POTUS, the Navy Seals would be handling this operation as they saw fit, NOT the FBI.

The official did confirm that from this operation they have proof that Captain Richard Phillips is still safe.

This is, without a doubt, the stupidest thing I've read from a journalist this week.

“I don’t know if I am more fearful or more embarrassed to be an American presently.”

This ordeal certainly makes America look pathetic. It is humiliating.

NOT the FBI

Think civil court -vs- military court.

Gitmo is being shut down presently via political directive.

Welcome pirates to the good ol' USA.

You said — Pirates: What’s the hold up already? When will they send me to my 72 virgins?

The hold up is that Obama hasn’t finished studying this...

He’ll have it down pretty soon, and then he’ll be able to speak to them properly...
