lol...right before Obama gave his State of the Union address, Navy SEALs parachuted into Somalia and attacked a pirate camp in order to free an American and a Danish hostage on a direct order from the President issued two days ago.  9 dead pirates, two safe hostages.  Immediately after he gave the State of the Union address, he called the American woman's family himself to tell them she was free and safe and on her way home.

Further proof that Obama has an extremely high level of trust in the military...ballsy move once again, counting on the SEALs to get the job done.

MOGADISHU, Somalia -- U.S. Navy SEALs parachuted into Somalia under cover of darkness early Wednesday and crept up to an outdoor camp where an American woman and Danish man were being held hostage. Soon, nine kidnappers were dead and both hostages were freed.

President Barack Obama himself authorized the mission two days earlier, and minutes after he gave his State of the Union address to Congress he was on the phone with the American's father to tell him his daughter was safe.

Mitt Romney might actually be the devil. If he beats Obama, it's for certain.

I actually have grown to completely revile him. Of the remaining competitors for the nomination, he's at best 3rd. And it's not like 1-2 (Gingrich and Paul in whatever order) are super awesome.

Obama has my vote unless an interesting 3rd option comes available.

Rick Santorum: Left uses college for "indoctrination"

Republican presidential candidate Rick Santorum said Wednesday that "the left" uses universities to indoctrinate young people for the purpose of "holding and maintaining power."

After saying "we've lost, unfortunately, our entertainment industry," Santorum told a Naples, Florida, audience that "we've lost our higher education, that was the first to go a long time ago."

"It's no wonder President Obama wants every kid to go to college," said the former Pennsylvania senator. "The indoctrination that occurs in American universities is one of the keys to the left holding and maintaining power in America. And it is indoctrination. If it was the other way around, the ACLU would be out there making sure that there wasn't one penny of government dollars going to colleges and universities, right?"

He continued: "If they taught Judeo-Christian principles in those colleges and universities, they would be stripped of every dollar. If they teach radical secular ideology, they get all the government support that they can possibly give them. Because you know 62 percent of children who enter college with a faith conviction leave without it."

Santorum went on to encourage his audience not to "give money" to colleges and universities that he said are causing harm to the country.

"I'll bet you there are people in this room who give money to colleges and universities who are undermining the very principles of our country every single day by indoctrinating kids with left-wing ideology," he said. "And you continue to give to these colleges and universities. Let me have a suggestion: Stop it."

Santorum said at the same event that he is leaving the Florida campaign trail this weekend - ahead of the state's January 31 primary - to go home and retrieve his tax returns, so he can release them.

A new CNN/Time/ORC International poll showed Santorum at 11 percent in the Sunshine State, far behind rivals Mitt Romney and Newt Gingrich.

I read things from this guy and can't honestly believe he believes what he says.  Jesus Christ - how the hell did he get elected to the U.S. Senate twice?

Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton says she wants to step off the after two decades and is again tamping down speculation that she might stay in government if President Barack Obama wins a second term. Clinton told State Department employees on Thursday that she is ready for a rest and is paying no attention to the Republican presidential candidate debates.
