Obama’s Real Panic: No Way to Blame W. for Pirates Crisis!

Canada Free Press ^ | April l12, 2009 | John Lillpop

Pirates have seized two ships in which America has an interest and continue to hold Richard Phillips, Captain of the Maersk Alabama, for two million dollars ransom.

After several days of witnessing the lone superpower in the universe literally brought to its knees by four Johnny Depp caliber pirates, even journalists in the leftist media are starting to wonder:

Where in the hell is President and Commander-in-chief Barack Obama?

Until now, Obama has been strangely mute, preferring to let Secretary of State Hillary Clinton speak for the administration.

[Piquaboy]

I am sure that you are right. Those people have now seen for theirselves how weak he is and will attack in a big way.

[Canedawg]

“most of the American people...won’t even care if the pirates are allowed to escape back to Somalia.”
***

most of the American people won’t care about the result at all as long as American Idol isn’t pre-empted.

[Piquaboy]

A bunch of kids that don’t know chit are his advisors.

[sport]

It is only going to get worse. Yesterday was the best day. Tomorrow will be worse than today.

[SERKIT]

It must not be a crisis, but an entertaining overseas contingency.

Hillary and now Evan Bayh spontaneous giggle or cackle whenever the topic is brought up.

Did you see Evan Bayh of FNS this morning?

[Savage Beast]

Hey, ever notice that, with the the notable exception of Harry Truman and the possible exception of those who came after Jimmy Carter, every Democrat President has been worse than his predecessor?

[DieHard the Hunter]

> Or he could call Ross Perot

WOW! I didn’t know he organized his own commando team from amongst his employees and rescued two of his guys from Iran!

He’s the sort of guy I’d love to work for.

[puppypusher]

Do you really expect Obama to take military action against his fellow Muslims.I think your asking for too much. After-all he got all of that good will by insulting his country in front of the people of the world. If He doesn’t do something soon I foresee big problems coming in the Not too distant future.Problems that could have been avoided if Obama only had a pair. These terrorist feared George Bush,They don't fear Obama.

[TribalPrincess2U]

He also has a dog to pick for his kids. Poor dog.

[ScottinVA]

“No Way to Blame W. for Pirates Crisis!”

zer0 can’t lay this one at Bush’s feet. How ‘bout he sprout a pair and go exchange himself for Capt Phillips. The nation would definitely be trading up.

THE PIRATES OF PANACHE

By Sir Paul Begala and Sir James (Serpenthead) Carville

FIRST SEA LORD OBAMA:

Now for the pirates' lair! Oh joy unbounded!
Oh, sweet relief! Oh, rapture unexampled!
At last I may atone, in some slight measure
For the repeated acts of theft and pillage
Which, at a sense of duty's stern dictation
I, circumstance's victim, have been guilty!

(Pirates enter.....)

FIRST SEA LORD OBAMA:

Oh, mad intruders, how dare ye face me?
Know ye not, oh rash ones
That I have doomed you to to extermination?

PIRATE KING:

Have mercy on us! hear us
Ere you slaughter!

FIRST SEA LORD OBAMA:

I do not think I ought to listen to you
Yet, mercy should alloy our stern resentment
And so I will be merciful -
Sail on!

PIRATES:

Ha! ha! ha! ha! ha! ha!
Ho! ho! ho! ho!

(.....pirates fall down, exhausted with laughter)

“Any new info on why she broke into inappropriate cackles while talking about this crisis?”

Because the timing of this crises is happening a few days before thousands will take to the streets to have Tea Parties.

Hillary is amused at how the administration is playing this down so they can use this “crises” on Wednesday and marginalize the Tea Parties press exposure.

People, this is Democrat politics at its best.

Hey Die Hard, If you want to read about it, get the book "On Wings of Eagles" by Ken Follet

On of the best books you'll ever read. It's an accurate account of the whole hostage situation in the late nineties and Ross Perot's rescue mission.

[ScottinVA]

” Those people have now seen for theirselves how weak he is and will attack in a big way.”

These are bright, shiny days for our enemies— they, especially the muslims, see nothing but weakness and vascillation coming from the White House. Thanks, 0-bots. Thanks for at least four years of critical damage to our national security.

[Lucky2]

The buck has landed on the Usurper’s desk and he hasn’t the faintest idea what to do.

Well for goodness sake, the Teleprompter hasn’t told him what to say or do yet. We can’t blame him if the teleprompter is slow now can we...?

[Zman516]

As usual, empty platitudes from a liberal.

Hillary had no idea what the hell to say. I think she broke out in cackles because she had a sudden realization of how stupid and vacuous she was coming off.

[Vendome]

We haven’t been brought to our knees by Jack Sparrow and unfortunately one American hostage.

I say wait them out, let them land, blow some things up, kill some skinnies(wipe out their families) and leave a message saying we will be back if you touch another American.

[Vendome]

Send Chuck.

End of problem.

[Vendome]

that guy was a dick

[adorno]

Where in the hell is President and Commander-in-chief Barack Obama?

Well, as president, he is destroying the country from the inside. As commander-in-chief, he is insuring that the country is also destroyed from the outside.

Iran will develop their nuclear weapons and the missiles to deliver them. North Korea is concurrently doing the same and will export their technology to any buyer. Al-Qaeda in Afghanistan and elsewhere is being emboldened by a weak American president and will try bigger and bolder attacks against the Afghan government and civilians. Syria will restart their pursuit of nuclear weapons development, if they haven't already done so. Libya will notice how the others are getting away with unfettered WMD development and will restart their desires in that area too. Pakistan will take any foreign aid from the U.S. and will pretend to be helping against Al-Qaeda. The African pirates have already noticed how weak and ineffective the "commander-in-chief" has been and will get even bolder in their piracy. Other areas of the world will get their own piracy started and soon will see the real "pirates of the Caribbean" in operation. Venezuela and Cuba will be more emboldened with American weakness and will launch more "guerrilla" operations in South America.

And, with an economy in a big downturn and with less tax money being collected and no money available to do any real "defense", the U.S. will be no more than just another country in deep doo-doo.

But, hey, the "president and commander-in-chief" can't be bothered by some silly little pirates threatening the lives of Americans and the shipping lanes. He's got a new dog to play with and some Wednesday night parties to worry about, and, oh yeah!, his wealth redistribution scheme is still in the works.
