Bryan, we should blow that boat out of the water.

After all, it's not like they're going anywhere as they have no gas.

The longer we wait to take action the longer the Captain will still be alive. The US Navy has to be just itching to blow the Captain up, he did surrender after all, and his weakness has probably emboldened the terrorists. I read on newsmax.com that they're in communication with Bin Laden, and they have one of Saddam's fingers in a little box that they worship.

Obama should have known this was going to happen and should have had a destroyer escort for that ship before the pirate attack. At least he could have used his super powers and taken back the ship personally, but no, all he's done is send in the US Navy and FBI. Like what are they going to be able to do about the situation that Obama can't?

This entire situation wouldn't even be happening had we not elected Obama in the first place. That sent a signal to the entire world that taking from others is ok.

Obama is probally going to give the pirates first class tickets to new homes in Ohio where they can find real work. After all, it's not their fault they are pirates. It was the social situation that forced them into piracy. Had Clinton not left those Somalis would probably have WIFI and 401K's.
