From the halls of Montezuma to anywhere but the shores of Mogadishu …

Ted Rall wants to know why, if we’re bombing the hell out of Afghanistan, including weddings, we’re doing nothing in Somalia to the pirates there.

A good question, indeed.

Guess Shrub hasn’t read the Marine’s Hymn, including the first-line words about eh “shores of Tripoli” — to fight piracy.

Or, riffing on the most famous line from that era, today’s words should be:

“Billions for defense contractors, but not one cent to oppose piracy.”
