To bad only 3 of the 4 pirates got shot, they should have nailed the 4th just for S & G.

For the record, it is estimated that mobilizing our military for this operation came to @ 13 million dollars. I am very happy for the captain and crew that were rescued, but I believe some quick comparison shopping could have produced a few capable snipers for a fraction of the cost. _________________ ■ Silverstone SG02-F ■ AMD X2 7750 @ 3.2GHz ■ Biostar TA790GX XE µATX ■ Coolermaster GeminII S ■ 2x 2GB G.Skill DDR2 1066 ■ Galaxy 8800GT 512MB ■ Corsair HX520 ■ 2x 250GB Western Digital SE16 ■

I got the figure from someone who often regurgitates Republican rhetoric... it may be off by +/- $13 million =P
I looked for anything that could support the actual number but came up with nothing... _________________ ■ Silverstone SG02-F ■ AMD X2 7750 @ 3.2GHz ■ Biostar TA790GX XE µATX ■ Coolermaster GeminII S ■ 2x 2GB G.Skill DDR2 1066 ■ Galaxy 8800GT 512MB ■ Corsair HX520 ■ 2x 250GB Western Digital SE16 ■
