Pirates?

[RICHARD]

The Captain is free and unharmed.
Three out of four pirates were killed, the fourth is in custody.

YEAH! Dead Pirates!

Yo HO HO and a bottle of American Effing Whoop Ass!

PS31,

10 seconds and 6 double taps? You are correct, sir!

----------------


What do we do with the fourth pirate?

Well, we can't send him to Gitmo.....Eff him, make him walk a tack studded plank.

[lizbud]

The pirates laugh at us. They know we won't do the right thing. They know we will "negotiate" with them.

Want to admit, you were wrong?

[RICHARD]

They know we will "negotiate" with them.

In any caliber.

Can't wait to hear how they did it,.

YEAH! Dead Pirates!

A most unChristian thought on this holiest of days: GOOD RIDDANCE!

Now that they have been introduced to the American way.. will it deter them in the future?

GOOD GOING SEALS!!

I absolutely LOVE this -

Two of the captors had poked their heads out of a rear hatch of the lifeboat, exposing themselves to clear shots, and the third could be seen through a window in the bow, pointing an automatic rifle at the captain, who was tied up inside the 18-foot lifeboat, senior Navy officials said.

It took only three remarkable shots — one each by snipers firing from a distance at dusk, using night-vision scopes, the officials said. Within minutes, members of the Special Forces slid down ropes from the Bainbridge, climbed aboard the lifeboat and found the three pirates dead. They then untied Captain Phillips, ending the contretemps at sea that had riveted much of the world’s attention. A fourth pirate had surrendered earlier.

"Want to admit, you were wrong?"
You're kidding, right??

This was on the Huffington Post:
"Capt. Richard Phillips was in "imminent danger" of being killed before U.S. Special Operations forces shot the pirates in an operation personally approved by President Barack Obama, U.S. officials said."

Rock on!

Want to admit, you were wrong?

Not exactly sure what your malfunction is here....

but I'm thinking this is one instance where ANYONE would HAPPILY admit they were "wrong" A life was saved the way it should have been saved to begin with. Doing what needed to be done instead of playing politics. I for one am just glad the innocent party in this was saved and the outcome was joyous rather than grave.

Having some idea of the skill and training that go into these shots, I wouldnt call them remarkable, but testements to that skill and training.

[RICHARD]

Two small details about this whole story.


Obama wanted to be sure that Johhny Depp was not involved, The bleeding hearts who are concerned about how this looks to the world are trying to get the fourth pirate to be taken to Anaheim, California.

He is going to be given a visa and a job at Disneyland on the Pirates of the Carribean ride

------------------------

JUst head that the surviving pirate was allowed to make a phone call from the U.S. ship and was at the fantail waving to his friends who were watching him when the SEALs jumped them!


"Can you hear me now?"

Want to admit, you were wrong?

I was wrong. Happens a lot. Now lets see if we can follow through and finish it.

See, its easy to admit Liz. Your turn next. Also, do not forget that most of my opinion on the direction we are heading as a nation as a whole is based on historical precedent. I PRAY that I am wrong. I do. All I really want is a country where my daughter will be free to make her own choices and not have her life dictated to her by "Big Nanny". Ya know?

Why do you only come out and talk when I make an error? Why can't you admit it when you make errors, or better yet, give us a original opinion or thought on stuff?

We all make mistakes. What makes us different is an ability to admit them, learn from them and move on. Rather than make excuses and try to defend them.

[moosmom]

I think the skipper of that ship and Capt. Sully should both be commendated by the President for bravery.

We've got some great Navy Seals, don't we??? Great job, guys!!! Glad everyone is safe.

Some people just have to spout off things like "the pirates are laughing
at us" when it turns out we indeed had the last laugh.

Very Tragic Beginning & Such a Very Happy Ending.. So glad the Navy Seals did what they were suppose to.. Very Happy for the Captian to be rescued.. What a Hero..
