Default Obama Tells Seals - "Do It Again"

You can say what you want and Obama "bowing" to other nations - and lie all you have to in an attempt to get people to believe you, but Obama's got guts - and he doesn't take ***** from other countries.

Quote:
A U.S. special operations team of Navy SEALs conducted a rescue mission into Somalia Tuesday night to free two aid workers, including an American woman, who had been held hostage for three months by Somali criminals.

32-year-old Jessica Buchanan, from Bedford, Virginia and 60-year-old Poul Hagen Thisted, of Denmark, were kidnapped on October 25 by a band of Somali criminals while on their way to the airport in the Galcayo located in central Somalia. Both were working for the Danish Refugee Group’s Danish Demining Group, DDG.

In a statement released by the White House, President Obama said he had authorized a rescue mission on Monday.

Didn't you get the memo?

Mitt Romney is going to make America so strong nobody would dare to kidnap an aid worker.

And didn't you get the other memo?

Now that pubbies are relegated to obstructing in congress, and actually won one of the houses, we're all pacifists that want to stop having anything to do with rescuing hostages or killing terrorists.

We have to be so strong nobody dares to challenge us and then we have to never intervene anywhere ever, and if we do we should have done it sooner to show real leadership.

Something like that.

Anyway it was the seals that did it, not Obama personally.

That's the ticket.

To have "guts" you need to be one of the seals...not the guy telling them what to do.

But I think the overall point is that he's nothing special...and prolly fairly lame for a potus.

No "lies" needed...

BTW....I don't want my tax dollars used to save a frikkn Dutch person. The seals should have saved the American and left the Dutch guy with the somalis'

So can we all agree now that our MILITARY is pretty frikkn awesome?

Go USA MILITARY!!!!!

And no one here would expect you to say anything different - simply because there's nothing more stupid that could have been said.

P.S. You left off your "face saving" that allows you tell everyone to "lighten up, I was just joking."

no, I think you are mistaking the Dutch for French. A French person is only worth half...especially in this economy

I'm not sure why anyone would think that this is some courageous decision by a president. There's two choices really. Leave them there, or try to free them. If this were Iran, KofA, Urbuttizstan, or some other functioning and legitimate country we had to go into, then sure. Kudos for making the decision to go in. In Pakistan one can make a case for that exact thing. Somalia is a wasteland though. I don't think it takes "guts" to give the military the OK to send in a Seal team to knock off a few pirates in a wasteland. I'm glad he let the seals go in, but it is Somalia.

It's only because they were Pirates... If they were Somali Ninjas, you know Obama would have thought twice about it...
