    Nothing speaks like a picture (or cartoon)

    …a thoughtful, patient approach paid off.

      for an opportunity to KILL the Bastards! Too bad one’s still alive, a bullet’s cheaper than a trial. Or they can just turn him over to the Master of the Alabama in International Waters and he can hang the pirate.

    I do think that overall the administration’s foreign policy looks disastrous so far, so don’t misconstrue this.

    But it may be that he refused to talk about it during the discussion on the housing crisis because he knew the SEALs were working on it. If that’s correct, his discretion was appropriate.

    … why does the phrase “Easter SEALs” come to mind?

      Even though the “Christian” Nation is in decline and falling.
      I suppose it is just possible that the reason the President said so very little about this was in order to allow those on scene to do their job.
      What I hate is the thought of how the left might, probably will, spin this to make the Administration sound all brilliant and not just lucky to have ‘inherited’ a military capable of such action.
      Finally, I can hope that the President learns a valuable lesson from this particular crisis.
      Sometimes, you simply have to fight back.

        He did his job. Quietly. Efficiently. And without putting on a sniper’s uniform to bask in the glory. Deal with it.

          So far in your one day here, you’ve managed to show you’re a smarta@# and not much else.

    Redstate is blessed to have a creative person such as yourself. I appreciate your work.

    3 Pirates Dead. 1 Captured.

    Both CNN and FOX reporting

    Kudos to Dear Leader ZerO for allowing the military to do their job.

    Did we just act unilaterally? Oh no!

    Or did we build a broad coalition?

    I’ll wait for the details.

  • Wing Zero

    Early reports are usually wrong… but this is what is I gather happened.

    The captain jumped overboard again. I guess the Navy figured they’d wait for that chance, and went in and did what the the US military does best, kill people and break things.

  • Wing Zero

    On retrospect, He certainly like to intervien on for the US on Christmas and Easter.

    Same as californiatransplant (above) – “a thoughtful, patient approach”.

    When a Democrat is in the whitehouse, his military use is patient and thoughtful.

    But…

    When a Republican is in office, he’d have been described as a “cowboy, a warmonger, etc.”

    Fortunately for us, the word about his bow got out to the general public.

    To be fair, to the extent that President Obama’s direction—or his willingness to stay out of the way and let the professionals do their work—helped this happy result come about, kudos to him.

  • red4ever

    they trusted the captain to act, then backed him up? So, it was not some great pronouncements from the President on how to save the guy?

    Okay, it’s Easter, the captain is FREE, I will be nice.

  • johnt

    This will only cause more unwashed and barbaric sub-humans to join the pirates efforts. We ought to be attacking the root causes of piracy instead of engaging in mindless violence.
    Did we throw the bodies overboard to the sharks ? After all, we’re all part of the same eco-system.

  • Spyder33

    Listen to your commanders on the ground rather some pompus blow Hard in DC. It worked in Iraq, and now again on the High Seas.

    Thanks Teleprompter for staying out of it and treating it like a distraction to your o so busy PR schedule

  • Spyder33

    To also ignore those in this country who cave in when bullied…. I knew a few of them in school and they amounted to nothing, LOL

  • ludic7

    Yes, yes they will…

  • ludic7

    Obama doesn’t kill pirates = Obama’s a creampuff internationalist.
    Obama does kill pirates = more pirates

    the US Military did the killing.

    Obama doesn

    Looking up the history of the US, God has been kind to us on Easter and Christmas.
