Thousands of Dolphins Block Somali Pirates
For years we have heard the Navy does have an official Marine Mammal Program. Maybe with the escalation of piracy in the Gulf of Aden region, our brilliant Commander in Chief, Barack Obama (D-Kenya), has implemented one of these programs as a defensive measure.
Thousands of dolphins blocked the suspected Somali pirate ships when they were trying to attack Chinese merchant ships passing the Gulf of Aden, the China Radio International reported on Monday.
The Chinese merchant ships escorted by a China’s fleet sailed on the Gulf of Aden when they met some suspected pirate ships. Thousands of dolphins suddenly leaped out of water between pirates and merchants when the pirate ships headed for the China’s.
The suspected pirates ships stopped and then turned away. The pirates could only lament their littleness befor the vast number of dolphins. The spectacular scene continued for a while.
Hillary Clinton Breaks Into Laughter Discussing the Somali Pirate Hijacking

Jimmy Carter Obama Assessing Action Over U.S. Hostages
Tune in here next week to get an update and to find out what Obama’s assessment is!
A presidential spokesman says the White House is assessing a course of action to resolve the hijacking of a U.S.-flagged ship off the coast of Somalia.
Press secretary Robert Gibbs said Wednesday that the White House was monitoring the incident closely. Said Gibbs: “Our top priority is the personal safety of the crew members on board.”
The White House offered no other immediate details about what actions it was considering.
Somali pirates on Wednesday hijacked the U.S.-flagged cargo ship with about 20 American crew members aboard, hundreds of miles from the nearest U.S. military vessel in some of the most dangerous waters in the world.
It was the first pirate attack against American citizens in recent memory.
