'There is no question about it, they [U.S.] should have been out of there long ago - why haven't they chartered a bigger boat like the Greeks or Turkish.

'At the very least, the government should have had a larger back up vessel on the way.'

A 3 hour cruise. Obama and his administration are spectacular idiots!

[mylife]

This guy makes Carter look competent.

[laweeks]

Insanity . . . that’s what it is. This skinny interloper is costing American lives by being such a jackass. Incredible. I’m still waiting for a comment from Obozo about the 4 Americans who were murdered by the “pirates.”

But, of course, there’s always time to spend with a “Black Only” music evening. Disgusting!

Because the Mossad and the evil Israelis changed the reservation to a much smaller boat from the spacious boat Obama ordered. It's time for Netanyahu and his clique to step aside and allow a transition to true democracy.

"Who of you, if your son asks ... for a fish, will give him a snake?" (Matt. 7:9-10).

And Barack Obama raised his hand.

You mean they tried to use Gilligan’s and skipper’s ship the Minnow?

[PGR88]

Many/Most State Dept. employees would in fact fit in quite well at your local DMV. They have a low level of competence and a high level of group-think.

They manage to pass the Foreign Service Exam by being politically correct, knowing how other DC bureaucrats think, and reading the Washington Post.

Let’s be honest about this shall we?

Stroker and his cadre of leftist thumb-suckers and bed-wetters could screw up a wet dream in a heartbeat.

Let this be a lesson for all of us.

NEVER, EVER send a boy to do a man’s job.

[bmwcyle]

AMEN

[La Lydia]

It’s not an administration, it’s a third-rate movie.

[668 - Neighbor of the Beast]

A 3 hour cruise.

I think it's a bit longer from Tripoli to Malta, but maybe this is the Minnow.

I doubt anyone in the Wons administration is smarter than Gilligan or Jethro.

[FourPeas]

And last night, while the Dolores remained stranded, the president enjoyed a White House pop concert in celebration of Black History month.

This is what the United States of America has come to. We have a president withm more than a single digit approval rating who parties while Americans are in danger due to his administrations incompetence.

Barry knows no shame.

[Squidpup]

“your gonna need a bigger boat”

[Roccus]

Wanting to get outta Dodge as quickly as possible, they prolly hired the fastest ship they could.........with no thought to sea-worthiness.

[Bigtigermike]

They had what 9 days or something for contingency plans? They were slow to respond in the first place

[mylife]

Well, for wanting to get the hell out of dodge, they sure took their merry time.

I guess the green community organizer in DaleyTown never had to run an evacuation. Smart taxpayers fled the city on their own.
