Hillary starts out with tough language and then shows contempt, by laughing, for having to deal with something as mundane as Pirate attacks! This is what we get when someone who has zero experience as a diplomat is faced with a serious diplomatic circumstance.
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.
