Actually, I'm a bit hesitant to leave ABlog ever. Those people out there are so vile and hateful... I think I need a shower.
Actually, what they are complaining about is we have a law abiding president who will behave according the laws and behave like a civilized human being instead of lowering ourselves to the barbaric behavior of the pirates. God Bless Obama! Their idea of the proper response to savagery is to respond like savages, to crime is to become criminal and to greed by becoming even more greedy.
For a long-term solution, the nations of the world need to try to figure out a way to establish a legitimate national government in Somalia. If you visit wikipedia and search on "somalia" you can read about the long and very tangled and very complicated history of this area.
More recently,
The Bush gangster regime hired the Ethiopian government to invade Somalia and to try and destroy the Islamic Court Union back in 2006. We are always interfering in the internal affairs of other countries, and always trying to stop any progressive movement or any form of good self-government. See the Wikipedia entry on the Islamic Court Union for more details. Apparently the Bush regime preferred anarchy in Somalia to muslim-run moderate form of government. What is the Obama Administration planning on doing to return a legitimate form of government. I doubt that sharia law would look kindly upon acts of piracy by anyone in Somalia.
Obama didn't fail.
For the details, see:
"U.S. Captain Rescued, No Reagan-Style Hostage Deal."
But one of the evildoin' pirates is still alive! And Obama won't torture him! He'll just read him his rights! And give him three squares a day in a country club-type Club Fed!
And is a great day for the entire US navy. So many young men and women away from home just so they might step up when needed to keep us safe. Well done!
It is dangerous to extrapolate too much from one or two events, but I have noticed that despite much turbulence, since Jan. 20, we are catching a few more breaks. Better Kharma?
And Gumby....you win!
Even if they have to make up sh _ t, it's Obama fault anyways.
It's like a stuck clock being right twice a day, but in this case, he was right to express dismay that this story reaches the level of his being asked about it.
The Obama puppy is NOT American..LOL Leave it to the right wing to call a puppy a anti american!!
In any case, it's great news! I'm just so happy for the captain, his family and crew.
How you even read anything and come up with exact opposite meaning???? All Lifson was saying was a job well done by our Navy but simply was "concerned that the captured terrorist will be treated as a criminal defendant, with all the rights of discovery and other secret-busting apparatus that make criminal action inappropriate for terror groups."!!
And with your pussy coward thinking who can blame him!!!
UNBELIEVABLE!!
Now you may slither back under your rock.
Um, he *is* a criminal. Piracy is not terrorism, it's piracy.
They found a sideline issue or two to get pissy about, that's all. Considering the source, what can you expect? Not more more.....
Most of the article was a very positive appraisal of what happened which you of course ignored.
DO you libs really think that the rescue of the Captain was the result of the great military expertise of the beloved Messiah???? I'm mean..c'mon...even you wackos can't be that far gone. Credit goes to the Navy Seals.
And I must have missed all the right wingers who wanted gunslinging!!
Acts of Piracy. The relevant court is Federal District,
i suspect they would take this case in Miami,
just because the courts there have more experience with this
or in Annapolis.
I also suppose he will be provided a Koran, halaal meals, and (naturally) access to both left wing lawyers and Islamic clergy, whose conversations with him will be held beyond the reach of the good guys."
Shorter American Thinker: Rescue was great, but too bad we can't torture him.
Phil Aver in an email raises the question of whether or not the captured Somali had his Miranda Rights read to him in a language he understands. If not, he probably walks.
