The problem predates the current administration, no reason to
politicize the discussion.
Not trying to politicize anything, Obama is the one who can stop it
"now". When Bush was in, I had the same feeling, in fact I am sure I
noted it here.
The loss of 4 lives, fellow boaters, is a tragic event - no question
about it.
If you were president how would you rank it on a scale of national
priorities compared to Afghanistan, Iraq, Pakistan, terrorism, Iran,
the economic crisis, the impending food and energy crisis, etc. ??
Any shipping irregularities in that area are a national security
concern.
