If you Missed Over the Weekend … Obama’s Got a new “First Puppy” … What About the Pork Barrel Pig? … Captain Phillips Rescued
What happened over the weekend …
The media was gushing over the weekend with the advent of the new “First Puppy” to the Obama White House. Where was Woodward & Bernstein to break the story? Check out the “First Puppy” Bo and his not so publicized side kick “Porky” the pork barrel pig. Bo? BO or is it BHO?
Thankfully, Navy Seals rescued American Captain Richard Phillips from his hostage situation from Somali pirates. This caused the media to actually cover real news stories. Richard Phillips humbly states that he was just a byline and the SEAL’s were the heroes. Actually, you are both heroes. Any person who would sacrifice them self for others is a hero in my book.
“I’m just the byline. The heroes are the Navy, the Seals and those that have brought me home.”

Unreal, Baby Brides … Saudi Judge Refuses to Annul 8 Year Old Girl’s Arranged Marriage by Father to Settle a Debt
Legalized crimes against woman in Saudi Arabia … Baby Brides.
So women want to complain in America that it’s a man’s world, huh? Try living in Saudi Arabia or pretty much any Islamic country where dogs might have more rights and preferential treatment than woman. Saudi activists have likened child marriages to slavery. Well maybe because it is. In Saudi Arabia … Woman have come a long way baby, NOT!!!
Call it marriage, Islamic style. Saudi marriage officiant Dr. Ahmad al-Mu’bi told Lebanese television viewers last week that it’s permissible for girls as young as 1 to marry — as long as sex is postponed. Guess who decides the appropriate age for sex?
A Saudi judge has refused for the second time to grant an annulment of a marriage between an 8 year old girl and a 47 year old man. Yes, you read that correctly. The judge rejected a petition from the girl’s mother, who was seeking a divorce for her daughter. Can anyone imagine a world where a marriage of an 8 year old is ruled legal?
Think that is bad? It actually gets worse, if possible. The 8 year old girl’s other initial petition to the court has denied on a technicality. Since the mother is separated from the girl’s father and is not the legal guardian, the mom had no standing to represent the 8 year old. Makes some sense until this bit of information. The father, the legal guardian, is the one arranged the marriage to settle a debt with a fried. GOOD GRIEF!!! So what is an 8 year old girl worth? It appears 30,000 riyals or US$8,000.

VT town’s prayers are answered on Easter Sunday
UPDATE I: As reported at MSNBC, there was a swift firefight off the Somali coast on Sunday. Hostage Richard Phillips was not hurt; however, 3 pirates were killed and one was taken into custody. Richard Phillips was safely transported to a Navy warship nearby.
UPDATE II: When Negotiations with Pirates Break Down, Bring in The U.S. Navy & U.S. Marine Corps.
As Atlas Shrugs stated, so much for the FBI crime scene … Hello Navy & Marines.
What was needed to negotiate with pirates was Bruce Willis in The Fifth Element. It would appear that finally The US Navy & Marines took a page from Mr. Willis and not the FBI.
SEND SOMEONE TO NEGOTIATE – THE FIFTH ELEMENT
UPDATE III: From Hot Air, Second Times a Charm
