President silent on pirate crisis

A report at the link below says that Obama is “careful and quiet” on the pirate crisis. He has let his surrogates do the talking.

There isn’t anything in the community organizers handbook about pirates, so it’s time to just ‘vote present.’ Besides, the media will be focused on hiding Easter eggs in the White House rose garden so he won’t need to talk about pirates right now.

This is just one merchant ship captain. Compared to the Carter hostage crisis that lasted for 444 days when 52 U.S. diplomats were held hostage in Iran from November 4, 1979 to January 20, 1981, this is insignificant and the media won’t expect him to do anything.

He can let Hillary handle it if she can just stop laughing about the crisis as shown in the video below.
