......The irony is that people like Limbaugh, Boortz, and Hannity would have much preferred that the captain of that ship die and the pirates get away and Obama look bad. I am serious. They hate Obama that much.
Wrong much......
"On Friday I said quit a bit on the air about the United States showing weakness: Weakness with Korea, and weakness in dealing with these Muslim pirates. Well, Obama came through. He told his military commanders to bring this episode to an end if they saw the means to do so. Obama said yes to a Pentagon request for standing authority to use appropriate force to save the life of the captain. We have to recognize that a failure of this mission would have been used against Obama ... so his decision showed courage. I was surprised. Pleasantly surprised."
