re: #861 Land Shark

True enough. The two good things Obama did with respect to the pirate incident are more about what he didn’t do:

1. He didn’t make a major public announcement on the kidnapping (that would have played into the pirates’ hand).
2. He didn’t micro-manage the Navy’s rescue operation.

For that I give him credit. Pirates will think again before targeting a US flagged vessel.
