As I said, I dont disagree with Obama's orders.
Still doesnt change the fact that we are authorizing deadly force against a group that has not killed anyone. That USED to be unamerican.
They got what they deserved? You need to do a little more research on the topic. These people are people destroyed, and are taking the only action they can to provide some sort of a standard of living.
I wonder if you would feel the same if you economy was destroyed, your ecosystem raped, you livelihood stolen...would you not take action to provide for yourself?

Well really that's just a matter of common sense. Obama is going to put on the facade that he's protecting Americans. How bad would it look if he just bent to the will of a few pirates?
All dog and ponny as far as I'm concerned. He is human after all.

Amen! and "preach it, brother" (or sister)! This is the crux of the matter. It is so complicated I don't think any one person can fix anything! I think everybody should give the man and his advisors a little more time before passing judgement. I am so happy the captain and the crew of the M Alabama, are safe and home.

Obama right now is cleaning up the mess of W. He will be doing this for years to come. His successor will continue to do this. You want to bash him already, go ahead. But it's much more complicated then you realize.
