Time to KICK some BUTT

EVEYONE RELAX!! President Obama got us out of the last one on his own...he'll do it again.

[TurtleUp]

An Air Force fighter pilot makes “ace” with five kills. I hope our snipers will continue making progress toward the equivalent goal. So many pirates; so little time.

[Hulka]

Did The One really think this would only happen once, especially given the fact he is promising the captured pirate a life like he has never known (air conditioned, 3-meals a day, clean sheets, TV, etc).

Until The One goes after the pirates and attacks them relentlessly on land, this will never end. Just use airpower, like Clinton, make the rocks bounce, there are no innocent people in areas controlled by the pirates.

Of course, if this reported hijacking is false, then well. . . .just do it anyway as a message to those that would attack America.

[Logical me]

Guess these as@es didn't get the message. Next, lesson #2.............

[ClearCase_guy]

Does anyone know why ships like this cannot be armed? I can't imagine there is a good reason -- but there must be some crazy reason of some kind.

Personally, I think some unemployed good ol' boys could be convinced to hitch a ride and provide adequate protection without a lot of fuss.

[Typical_Whitey]

Obama’s war... America is much less safe with this idiot at the helm.

“BREAKING NEWS - Navy Thwarts Pirate Attack on U.S. Cargo Ship Updated 1 minute ago”

[50cal Smokepole]

From: http://abcnews.go.com/US/International/story?id=7331134&page=1

“A U.S. ship carrying food aid foiled an attack by Somali pirates this morning, the latest known attempted hijack by pirates who continue to thumb their noses at the world. U.S. officials told ABC News that the Liberty Sun evaded the pirates’ attack off the coast of Somalia. The ship is said to be heading to its port destination of Mombassa. The Navy responded to a call for help by the Liberty Sun, which is carrying food aid for CARE and the World Food Programme.”

CNN now reporting the pirates 'failed to board':

Few details...

Headline updated:

Pirates attack but fail to board U.S.-flagged merchant ship off Somalia

[TenthAmendmentChampion]

The One is being tested, as promised. He’s 1 for 2, did ok on the Phillips hijacking but failed with North Korea.

[earlJam]

Heads exploding.

(well, not until the Seals get there)

[Windflier]

It’s on, Obama. Are you going to draw this one out for a week, too? Are you going to send in the EPA, the ACLU, and the NAACP to deal with this situation, too?

Shoot, this is Obizzle’s worst nightmare. The Somali pirates are going to force his hand again. I’ll bet his WH bed wetting crew is crying and wringing their hands about this already.

“Oh Noz...!”

[BykrBayb]

Here we go again.

[Revolting cat!]

No pain,no gain. Unless the Navy inflicts casualties on these savages, they’ll try again and again. Remember, their success rate has been 40%, so they’re used to failures such as this.

[LikeLight]

Liberty Sun...

[BykrBayb]

Wagglebee, please excuse the ping. This is a false story. The pirates did not board the cargo ship.
