McShame: Send Special Forces after Nigerian captives.
2014-05-14
[Daily Beast] The United States should send in special forces to rescue the hundreds of girls kidnapped by Boko Haram--whether the Nigerian government gives permission or not, according to Sen. John McCain.
Africans need help from former colonials and others, they just don't realize it yet. We know what is good for them.
I had really, really hoped John would have retired by now...
"If they knew where they were, I certainly would send in U.S. troops to rescue them, in a New York minute I would, without permission of the host country," McCain told The Daily Beast Tuesday. "I wouldn't be waiting for some kind of permission from some guy named Goodluck Jonathan," he added, referring to the president of Nigeria.
"Some guy?"....Forget national sovereignty, the rule of law, and an elected official. We're the #worldcops!
Thanks for thoughtlessly denigrating a head of state John. Your skills know no bounds...

Classy. Go ahead, call him a hobbit, you know you want to. I think Mr. Jonathon has enough going on without the smell of old fish wafting from DC.

#4  Maybe it's a good think Obama won in 2008. I hate to admit but you have to consider the possibilities.

Now you're talking about REAL torture.

#2  Pappy, they'd lose the bail money. You'd have to give em t-shirts with their wives' phone numbers on 'em instead.
