Not The Inspirational Easter Message You Expected From The White House

The white flag of surrender must not be back from the cleaners yet.
FLAMING SKULL ACE UPDATE: The Capt. of the Maersk Alabama apparently got tired of waiting for the Commander-In-Chief to finish eating his pizza flown in from 900 miles away.
Negotiating with terrorists proves fruitless. Better to be feared than respected.
So yay! Good news. All it cost was maintaining a standing army of warships, helicopters and millions of dollars in personnel to lose the maximum amount of face possible in the least amount of time over four ragtag nobodies:
Early Saturday, the pirates holding Phillips in the lifeboat fired a few shots at a small U.S. Navy vessel that had approached, a U.S. military official said on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to discuss the matter publicly.
The official said the U.S. sailors did not return fire, the Navy vessel turned away and no one was hurt. He said the vessel had not been attempting a rescue.
Why would they be attempting a rescue??? That’s just silly. The pirates thought we were going to attempt one but we know we’d never do anything like that to upset them.

Points to consider now that the good captain is safely aboard the Bainbridge…
1. Will the captured ‘pirate’ be brought to New York to stand trial for piracy?
2. Did Obama really order the strike?
3. Is Odinga behind the bulk of this ‘maritime community organizing’?

Obama needs some positive propaganda right now, so the fact that three of his Muslim brethren gave their lives for that is no sweat off of his madrassa-educated back. Think of it as taquiyya (sp) on steroids.

Either some Navy SEALs with pirates in their crosshairs said “funk dis” and pulled the trigger, or Rahm Emmanuel is a 6MB reader, and got embarrassed on his boy’s behalf.
Either way, we gotta ask: “Now was that so hard?”
