The special forces team that busted into a Somali pirate camp and freed two aid workers was the same group that busted into Osama bin Laden's hideout and took him down. These guys like action movie heroes at this point. And we're starting to see a script. The last time Navy SEALs went on a raid (that we know of), Barack Obama was in a similar situation as he was Tuesday night, addressing the White House Correspondents Association's annual dinner. Clearly, the president has an amazing poker face.
