Probably because there were some things on there that weren’t oil.
“The world cant wait for Congress...
Tis has to be legal, since Herr Obozo studied constitutional law, supposedly! (massive sarcasm)
Dio, help me here.
I’am an old man.
Weren’t we told that we could not get a rescue team to defend our consulate and people in Benghazi.
However, herr Obozo can order and send a valuable Seal Team to capture another country’s ship, in the same country?
Am I missing something here?
This Oil isn’t Soros/Open Society-approved, so it had to be stopped.
None, of course.
Here you literally have a potential "blood for oil" situation endangering SEALs and not a peep from the anti-Bush crowd.
I want to see the crazed woman with blood stained hands shove them in Kerrys' face in the way it was done to Condolizza Rice.

The no blood for oil, get out of Gitmo and stop the Bush wars crazies have been amazing quiet.
We have one in our area, who used to write weekly letters for years yelling about all of the so called War for Oil or Bush Wars. She has been so quiet since her lord and master war lord, Obama was elected.
She is a first class B$tch, who hates Americans, capitalism, republicans, and I enjoyed asking her, why we don’t see any letters from her anymore or her protesting on street corners or at the farmers market.
She complained to her husband about me, and he complained to me. I told him that he should be ashamed to be married to her. He just kinda of nodded and walked away. Reminds me of all the semi elites and so called elites, who used to have Obama/Biden stickers on their Volvos and Piuses. Now they don’t.
One has the sickening feeling that the President is puting these brave, superbly trained men, at unnecessary risk, as though they were his personal play things.
Does anyone else have that sickening impression?

Capturing a hijacked oil tanker has been a ST “dream mission” from day one.
They have been SALIVATING at the prospect for over 30 years, and were finally given the go-ahead to actually do it in a “real world” mission.
They would have been even MORE psyched to do a Behghazi rescue mission, but politics intervened.
BOL!
The ST’s must have one hell of a good sales rep making presentations at the outhouse.
Again, thanks for the update.
Bad analogy. The Libyan government requested assistance to capture what are in effect pirates that stole oil.
#30: Right; Look at this as a win for our side. Retook a covert No. Korean ship (got to be worth something, even as scrap or a floating casino). Got back some oil for whatever govt is still in Benghazi. Captured some bad guys.
No US losses and one Seal Team win. I guess someone in the Navy didn’t tell Secy Nav Mabus that they were actually going to fight terrorists and communists, so that he couldn’t announce the operation to the world before it took place.
Somewhere pro-American Navy personnel are smiling.
If the seal team gets creamed in a helo incident we will know something is up.
