Pirates....

I'm just wondering when the current administration is going to do something? Here we are, the most powerful nation in the world and our President can not figure out what to do about a rag tag element ambushing our shipping, and kidnapping our citizens.

Now I know discretion is called for, since they have a hostage. But this is exactly what Navy SEALS and Marines train for. Instead we have the FBI being flown in to negotiate. I thought we didn't negotiate with terrorists? Make no mistake, there is no difference between these "pirates" and terrorists. These are the same type of men who fought our brave Delta Operators, Rangers, and 10th Mountain Soldiers in Mogadishu.

In conclusion, I don't believe there is any surprise in the fact that these pirates never attacked US shipping during President Bush's term. They know what he would have done, and feared it. They do not fear Obama nor do they respect him. I think this is a very powerful indicator of what the world really thinks of him.
