Actions speak louder than words. Did you think the FBI and US Navy were on autopilot and the Administration was ignoring the situation?

That's how you're acting, but we know that that's not what really happened. So why do you still insist he was wrong to play the silent card? We all had clear visibility to what the Government was actually doing.

Oh yes, it's because you wanted to bitch about it. My bad...

I believe he should have said SOMETHING. I know what the military was doing, but not the government. With all the destroyers in the area, they must have been under orders. All I know is Obama said it was ok to use force if the capts life was in danger, I am glad he authorized it. But he is a politician and he needs to make a statement.
