…so Janet Napolitano can be assured that those potential terrorists are neutralized.
I am very disgusted.

Pirates and Obama

There is going to be a very good side effect of president Obama’s pirate speech.
The president is now publicly committed to suppressing piracy. Since the president has publicly done this he has put his prestige on the line. If I’m right that means he will actually do it.
This is a good thing, good for the country and good for the world. I know Rush had a lot of fun tweaking the president on this but I’m with Jonah on this one, suppressing piracy is good. If the president decides he will do this, that is good and I support it.
And now the other side

Yesterday I highlighted how a post on Talkleft expressing some regret that it was necessary to kill the pirates produced some rather…interesting comments. Now lets look at the other side of the coin.
Gateway Pundit points to this post at Kos where the Captain of the vessel is derided for his resistance. As the newly re-designed (not bad) GP points out the post is outrageous, but I want to tip my hat to most of the commentators.
The commentators are almost unanimous in their disdain for the post, quite a few are calling for it to come down. Some may in fact agree with the line of argument but think it reflects poorly on liberalism but I prefer to think that these people get it.
This is why I think that a post like this shouldn’t come down. The commentators on this diary do much more credit to the left than the diary does against it. Plus the image in this comment is worth the price of admission.
