Happy Easter.
....Youngblood, I'm happy that you (someone who is too young to vote, who lives outside the US, and made such a big deal about Obama during the election like it would affect you) are pleased with the Obama Administration's slow actions in this situation....I am sure Obama will be pleased that you (a Canadian) have his back....it's nice that Obama seems to care more about what foreigners suchas yourself think instead of people in the country that elected him, and we're pleased as citizens represented by Obama that he can take time out of his speeches to talk shit about our country when we're at war and when situations like this arise.

Obama didn't use the freaking media whom he is so fond of to help out in this situation. He didn't make a speech, he didn't demand swift action, he didn't act like a leader....he didn't even answer questions about the pirates.....that's not leadership and although I am happy that the Captain (a man who acted like a true leader) is safe, I am unhappy with how long it took to free this guy from 4 pirates in a small boat that was out of gas.

Youngblood, it's not JUST about the pirate situation....if these bums are testing their boundries with us and the Chinese/North Koreans are doing the same and Obama isn't acting in a swift decisive manner then as a citizen you kind of worry about what is going to happen next.
