How will President Obama respond to piracy? 

 

This is how....straight from Rush

Obama Votes "Present" on Pirates; Hillary Cackles over "Criminal Act"

RUSH:  Greetings, my friends.  Rush Limbaugh, the EIB Network.  Great to have you with us, as we charge forward for another three hours of broadcast excellence.

... to the pirate situation, late yesterday afternoon in Washington, press conference with the Moroccan prime minister and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, unidentified reporter says, "Madam Secretary, do you have any clarity on the Somali pirate situation?"

HILLARY:  We're deeply concerned and we're following it very closely.  Um... (pause) You know... Specifically we are now focused on this particular act of piracy and the seizure of a ship that, uh, carries 21 American citizens.  More generally, we think the world must come together, uhh, to end the scourge of piracy.  I think Morocco was the very first country that recognized us, going back a -- a -- a long time, and, uh, uh, we worked together to end piracy off the coast of Morocco (cackling) all those years ago! (cackling louder) and, uh, we're going to work together, uh, to end, uh, this kind of criminal activity anywhere on the high seas.

RUSH:  Well, this is just incredible.  She sits there and laughs about how we worked with Morocco years -- ha-ha-ha, we, ha-ha, we came together, ha-ha, very first country that recognizes we, ha-ha, to end piracy off the ha-ha-ha-ha, off the coast of Morocco all those years, ha-ha-ha-ha, and now the world has to come together again.  Well, we probably did blow up Morocco, showed them who's boss.  The world has to come together; the world has to do something.  Hillary warned us about this!  During the presidential campaign, ladies and gentlemen, Mrs. Clinton kept reminding the United States, the people of this country, about that 3 a.m. phone call.  Even the AP writes a story about this today: "Hillary Clinton said there would be days -- and nights -- like this.  For the second time in four days and with less than three months in office, President Barack Obama has received the '3 a.m. phone call' that Clinton warned about. In their bitter presidential contest, Clinton suggested that her young rival was not ready for a national security crisis." He declined comment when asked about it.
