man.. how would you feel if  you catch the lunker of a lifetime just to get robbed by pirates?

[elacruze]

How about I go fishing with a .308 and a scope?

[Todd Wilson]

Sounds like they need to send some Navy Seals down there to go fishing for a weekend!

hell yeah!

And then some flower child posts this in response:

"Its so unfortunate that the international community is silent on this horrific and horrendous act. This begs the question if indeed the pirates capture ships and brake international law arent the russians more worse by braking international conventions on human right by killing or inducing the death of the pirates? Just because the pirates are poor and stateless does not mean they are less human than any one of us."

Waaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh!!!!!!! Let's cry a collective tear for the Somali pirates shall we?

[RD]

yeah i saw that, i wanted to slap him.. (actually i was the one who commented about him going to somalia and talking with those pirates to see how they felt )

[Silver R/T]

Maybe we should feel sorry for terrorists also and give them "human rights" also?

Publicly-aired moronic views are not the same thing as widely-held moronic views.   


Try putting the issue to a public vote, and I'll bet the next set of pirates would get treated no better than this set.

From what I'm reading some of those fishermen are entering Mexican waters illegally. And as we have discussed, people who cross borders illegally are criminals who have no rights and are not protected by the laws of the land they are encroaching, so I say "boo effin hoo" to them. Go Zetas!

i guess they should apply for social services from the mexican government?

Hilary said we should apologize after 9/11. She said we should find out what we did to upset them and apologize. I have a response to that...can't write it here.

First time I've heard that... can you post a link about that?

[chargergirl]

Haven't found it so far however I heard that with my own ears when she said it on national tv. Then she sat behind the president and rolled her eyes throughout his entire speech. I have searched and will search again for this however not having much luck tonight. With two of my boys just out of basic when this happened I was glued to the news...I remember her saying something to that effect after the Bush speech.

Sorry but I have to call bullshit on that.  

I've never seen or heard that quote or anything like it.  Her whole stance on the terrorists after 9/11 was consistently pro-Afghanistan-invasion.


If the quote existed there is no way it wouldn't have been trumpeted around when she was a presidential candidate two years ago.  If the incident was on national TV and/or during a Bush speech then it couldn't have been hidden afterwards.  

 

[chargergirl]

Since they are not showing anything except for when Bush mispoke, she grinned from ear to ear to hear him mess up then I can't prove this. Hilary despises Bush that much we know. He wasn't my favorite person either. So what I heard and saw I can't prove. I also know what I saw along with a bunch of folks that were floored by it. However in all the news reels of him speaking they have the entire shot with only him in it. She was sitting behind him to his left...the shot has been changed to only encompass him. Just remember she came in to Afghanistan under heavy fire...right?

I don't have any trouble believing that Hillary has little respect for GWB. 

I just have trouble believing she made the "we should apologize" quote above.  It's idiotic from a P.R. viewpoint.  And it totally conflicts with the rest of her own actions & statements at the time.  Hillary is no friend of mine, but that quote just strikes me as more like a baseless net rumor than a real incident. 

 

[chargergirl]

Since I heard it I know it's real. I am sure it was one of those "I have to be completely opposite of GWB". That would do it. It was never seen again...but I was very aware of what was being said at that time. Had one kid grad. from Lackland and the other about to grad from Army Basic. In some ways I was too acutely aware of what was being said at that time.

[Mike DC]

 
Well I guess we will have to agree to disagree.

Are you sure it wasn't Stretch Pelosi standing behind him? She's the Speaker of the House and most likely to be around during an important speech.
  I don't doubt Hillary is anti-military. Bill wrote in a letter that he "despised the military" back in the day.
Thank your kids for their service for me. It says a lot for your parenting and morals that they will dedicate their lives defending our freedom. I hope my kids will do the same! -Jason
