    I would hope to God that I could have one last loving phone call with my kidnapped loved one. (we would have already understood the risk and spoken of the possible outcome of a hijacking) Then I would hope to the heavens that neither Bush, but especially not Obama were in charge. I would prefer Cheney. The pirating has gone on too long. It went on for 14 yrs of fighting in the late 1700's. We now have the tools to instill fear and put an end to the piracy...quickly. Bomb them into the stone age....I doubt there would be an incidence of piracy again for a while.

    I really don't know what i would do, cuz that is just something that we never really talked about, or have i thought about. Just cuz we both know that it will never happen. Both children have been raised that it is very very wrong, gross and disrespectful. And were i'm from that is how it is also viewed in my community. Basically this part of the state. We don't have much of it around here either, so its not something that any child here thinks is cool to become. So we are basically not worried about it. Be different if it was genetic and you were born with it, but since you aren't and it is a dirty plague that sweeps places where it is faught over and made a fuss about all the time, our children will be normal. Thank Goodness!!!

    It would have to be Obama because when Bush was president the pirates were afraid to mess with a U.S. flagged ship. They have grabbed over 400 ships in the last 1 1/2 years but none flying an American flag until now.

    Every scumbag in the world knows Obama is a coward and sympathetic to every group that hates America.

    It is going to be a bloody 4 years.

    NEITHER,, its not a govt. problem..Its Private Industry.. Anyone with a brain should know that !! When Industry ARMS their vessels and protects them,,this nonsense will cease !! Until then,, its just like if someone kidnapped your family member,,who would you want to handle it.. The GOVT,, or Law authorities ?? Quit trying to be political..Just say ,, I hate Obama,,although my party lost,,I'll be a whiner and cry-er for the next four years.. We already understand that.. The Sad thing is America Suffers.. Because,, YOUR part of the problem !!! SCARBORO
