Let them find jobs in their bombed country and start rebuilding and making somali a habitable country. I hope that these somalies are not going to seek refuge in east africa otherwise they will just be problatic people. i hate them.....

Had no damn clue what to do and obviously avoided the issue in the press conferences. Had to even remind his friends in the liberal media that he was not speaking about the hostage situation. A poor leader is our negro president. Come on, the President had his finger up his a_s. Had no damn clue what to do and obviously avoided the issue in the press conferences.

It's just as likely that this could have been done 5 days ago as it is that there's some reason why the SEAL team may have said it couldn't have been done 5 days ago. Unless you're among the half-dozen or so people who were actually privy to all the facts (and god, I hope none of those people have enough spare time to be trolling through FITS -- no offense Will) then it's all speculation. My issue isn't with people thinking that something could/should have been done sooner, it's the ridiculous motivations that you (and that's the plural 'you') have been attaching to the president's decision-making process with only vague speculation and like-minded simpletons as your source material. This was not "Under Siege 4" (yet, check back next year) this was real and in the real world there are a lot more grey areas than there are in the movies.

Why weren't the Seals in position when the captian jumped ship several days ago? I fully believe that this situation could have been decisively and successfully solved with a military solution 5 days ago. I would also posit that earlier, decisive action in regards to the Maersk hijacking may have deterred the subsequent American tug-boat hijacking. Likely Obama spent the last five days running focus group polling. When the focus numbers looked dismal, Obama acted out of necessity. I am very grateful he didn't get Jessie Jackson and Jimmy Carter involved as "mediators." Nevertheless, I am grateful for the positive outcome, despite the delay in military action.

Oh wait, he pretended to be negotiating while a strike force went in and killed the captors and the captain is fine. Huh... Surely it must have been some sort of mutiny where the U.S. forces overtly refused orders from the commander-in-chief and took matters into their own hands risking court-martials. That's the only possibility.

The American public is watching and will no doubt read between the lines. Clearly, an aggressive posture against the initial Maersk hijacking would have likely deterred the second, tug boat hijacking. But liberals don't understand human nature. Thugs respond only to force. Remember Randee, liberals believe that America is the biggest threat to "world peace" not Islamic terrorist/hijacker fascists. Randee,

His impotence in not responding to a small, third world threat will have disasterous implications regarding our national security. North Korea, Iran, Syria, Venezuela, Russia, China, Hezbollah, and Hamas will be emboldened. Israel will not rely on Obama's word of protection. Obama is incapable of protecting Americans from third world pirates; he is also incapable of protecting the United States from first and second world military conventional and unconventional threats. America has lost any capability to deter hijackers and terrorists under Obama's invisible "leadership". Obama is a threat to world peace! Impeach Obama!
