that three Somali pirates who were killed by the Navy's Seals to end a hostage crisis were "untrained" teenagers. LOL! Oh, we have trained pirates now, do we?

Yes, in Somalia they have the equivalent of ITT teaching "How to be a Pirate". In just 18 months you have your pirates license and are certified and trained to be a pirates. Taking an addition 6 months will guarantee you your master pirates ticket, good for anywhere in the world that has shipping!(The school will throw in a free parrot, peg leg optional!)

U.S. Defense Secretary Robert Gates said on Monday that three Somali pirates who were killed by the Navy's Seals to end a hostage crisis were "untrained" teenagers.

You know, a moron is a moron. The pirates were heavily armed; the pirates successfully captured a fully loaded freighter; the pirates held off the entire US Navy for five days; the pirates were negotiating as trained by their sponsors. Who knows how many other jobs they had successfully carried out before failing? Who knows what they would have done to the captured captain if allowed to continue?

Gates is putting forth typical psycho-babble common to those with disordered minds (Democrats). He is making excuses for the vermin that continue to pirate the high seas with repeated acts of war. What a moronic administration! God help our Department of Defense with his ilk in charge!

Chris Matthew’s leg tingles at the mere mention of Obama. That speech makes my whole body tingle!

I knew a guy that used to collect drug, gambling debts for fun.( Steroids and racism will do that). Anyways, I was a fan of .45, but he swore by large nickle plated revolvers. He said the flash, the bling, the eye catching chrome penetrated the minds of the dumb and the doped. He liked copper jacketed which he polished with metal cleaner so that they saw chrome and nice shiny copper bullet tips in cylinder.

He was also about 6’3, 280, bald, on steroids and power lifting, so maybe there isn’t enough data to make a conclusion as to what did what as far as desire responses.

Yeah, but the upside is, with this type of BS, Bozo has to take the hit. He has already claimed, and the media backs him and heaps praise on him, that he is the one responsible, he gave the order. If this stuff continues to be propagated in the MSM, Bozo will lose points bigtime. I don't see it going anywhere and I would not be surprised if Gates clamps his mouth shut soon.

Downright scary when our families are at stake here!

O’Reilly just said that tomorrow he's going to drop a very disturbing story that he's been working on about the Defense Department. FYI.

"As long as you've got this incredible number of poor people and the risks are relatively small, there's really no way in my view to control it unless you get something on land that begins to change the equation for these kids," Gates told students and faculty members.

Kids? This is what you get from a Bush-appointed chickenturd college president who's primary experience has been sucking up to rich liberal alumni donors. Now you see why Obama kept him on.

Trained or not, any damn fool with an AK-47 at your earlobe is a f*ing menace. They could have been the most highly trained guerrillas in the middle east and thank god the SEALs were going to get some anyway.

[LibLieSlayer]

Either way, that is an imposing picture.

each them Ebonics and build rec centers will keep them from a life of piracy. /sarc

Are you saying Midnight Basketball?

Ladies and gentlemen, we have a winner.

[yazoo]

All the more reason to shoot them. An untrained teenager with an AK is more dangerous than a trained adult with an AK.

[Cincinna]

Where is Rummy when we really need him?

The Obama administration has entered into Jimmy Carter territory, and it won’t be pretty.

Note to Obama: There is “Pirate Central”. Where do you think all that ransom money is going? all those tens or hundreds of millions of dollars? There are just so many iPhones, big screen TVs, and iPods that can be bought with these huge sums of money.

The money is going to fund Islamnic terrorism, which should surprise no one.

[yazoo]

I don’t think they were pirates. Did anyone actually see them drinking rum, or wearing an eyepatch, or sporting a parrot on their shoulder? I need more evidence, not just the word of some trigger happy navy types.

[sport]

They don’t think that taking away your and our guns will cause the gangs and crooks to be unarmed. They do not care if the gangs and thugs are armed, these are no threat to them. They consider us to be. They want our guns because if you control the guns, you control the people. They intend to control us.

[Rockiette]

So, over 17 ships and over 200 captives mean nothing to Gates? What a weak man! He is lost in the swamp of the left and Obamas policies. Makes me SICK!!!!

[garjog]

Obama ordered to have these poor, “untrained teenagers” killed. I am outraged!

“Obama ordered, teens slaughtered.”

“Obama ordered, teens slaughtered.”

Repeat chant five or six times.
