Obama Makes Light Of Pirate Problem

Some may dismiss this as cute, but would it be as funny to have the President joke around with someone in a comical KKK robe, terrorist headrag or urban thug paraphenilia?

If not, then why can we laugh about pirates for aren't they simply carjackers or street gangs of the high seas?

I wonder if victims of pirates would like the President being so light-hearted about the tragedy that befell them.

But I guess since the pirates are teenage Africans (one of Obama's prime voting blocs), we should just overlook it all.
