So Sunday was huge military success for President Obama. You're probably asking what did he do? Did he end the war in Iraq? Did he kill Osama bin Laden? Did he bomb and conquer every nation on Earth and name himself the "Supreme Sovereign of the World Union" with Michelle as Empress Consort of the World?

No... but close...

He ordered those well-trained Navy Seal snipers to shoot three Somali boys who were prolly high on some hallucinogenic drug that the tribal warlords gave them to keep them under control. Mind you, they were in a life raft with no gas and tethered to the American ship, but this was the first military challenge for our President, and those people on TV love him for having them shot dead. According to one pundit, "it showed his strength".

Well the day it becomes strong and great for an American President to kill Africans with no realistic means of escape or defense will be the day I question our definition of strength. That day was Easter.

Its not okay to relish in the death of others, I don't care if their murderers, terrorists, pirates, bucaneers, marauders, or scallywags. The use of lethal force should not be glorified by our media or our government. It should be a matter of necessity only.

With that said... Good Job Obama. I would've done the same thing. (Its just not cool to glorify it).
