Free: Captain Richard Phillips, hero; Update: “They were pointing the AK-47s at the captain.”

Flying the flag high today:

Good news on this Easter Sunday. Captain Richard Phillips is free.

Give thanks and praise.

Reports say Captain Phillips jumped overboard again, and the US Navy moved in — killing three of the pirates and taking one into custody.

***

The headlines are not quite right.

They should read: “Daring Captain takes command again, second escape attempt successful; Navy captures three.” …”

Barry and the Pirates

By Lance Fairchok

“…This is what we have come to. Unilateral action, even if it is as clear cut as defending US interests against pirates, must be avoided. Murderous Jihadist terrorists get civil rights and government lawyers while US taxpayers pick up the bill. Pirates, who board US shipping and threaten American seamen, get treated like simple criminals that do not warrant so much as a mention by the President. One would have thought it was a no-brainer for the Manchurian President, a populist win-win to paint Obama as a decisive leader, a chance to inspire confidence that he was up to the challenge. It was a chance to warn aggressors, pirates or otherwise, away from international shipping. It was also a chance, now squandered, to reassure friend and foe alike that America had not lost her nerve or reneged on her exceptional role as a world leader.

But no, it’s all just a distraction from the greater work of wealth redistribution, “social justice,” and remaking America into the utopian vision of a narcissistic socialist academic with a nice speaking voice. No pompous speeches and meandering lectures this time, the implications of piracy on trade and sovereignty are beyond Obama.

When asked by a reporter about the Maersk Alabama during a White House event, President Obama responded to the question with: “Guys, we’re talking about housing right now,” translated as “don’t bother me with trivialities.” Obama has no clue what is required of a world leader and his advisors less so. A mere three months into its first term, the Obama administration is turning out to be just the embarrassment and bumbling disaster, we feared it would be.

I’ve already noticed people taking Obama stickers off their cars. They can only pad the polls so long. Pirates are easy, what’s going to happen if we are attacked again, or Iran, Pakistan, or North Korea use a nuke? …”
