“These acts of piracy off of Somalia’s coastline may seem surreal, but they’re all too real and a thorough policy debate is long overdue,” said Sen. John Kerry (D-Mass.) in a statement. “When Americans, including at least one from Massachusetts, are endangered, you’ve got a complicated and dangerous international situation brewing, and that includes questions about a hot-pursuit policy on Somalia’s coastline.”

I don’t know where in the heck Kerry has been, these “acts of piracy” have been going on for years. But as a nominal politician, Mr. “Warm and Fuzzy Foreign Policy” wants to do what all liberals do when there is a crisis.

Sit, and talk about it.
