...all in all, I'd say a fairly good deal. Congratulations Mr. President (Clinton) and welcome home Laura and Euna!
Clinton didn’t do this. It was all pre-arranged and we have to wonder what Barry gave up.
I think the two women intended to be captured by the North Koreans in a well planned setup to help Democraps.
Isn’t it interesting that Clinton headed over there right at the epic of intense public outrage against Obamacare.
Clinton already gave the Norks nuke secrets....hell of a price to pay for a couple “journalists”.
I think it might be better if Larry Sinclair did the honors.
Very interesting. Exactly how were there release secured?
These idiots lives were not worth the price we will pay to North Korea for securing their release.
What? American lives no matter what they did is worth it. Next you will be hoping that kid from Idaho should not be saved because he walked off base with two bad guys. I am surprised that you are being so negative...now for your second portion of your post, I do agree...what did they promise the North Koreans for this release??? That is the question not keeping the AMERICANS in North Korea.
What about the 3 idiots who crossed into Iran and were captured? Would giving Iran a nuclear weapon be worth their release?
The reason I have no sympathy is because these reporters, if you could call them that, purposefully brought this situation onto themselves by screwing with North Korea. If they knew anything about with whom they were dealing they would know that becoming a bargaining chip for the enemy is a very bad thing.
I highly doubt that North Korea would release these 2 as a gesture of good will. Being able to drag a US President to help secure their release alone signals to North Korea that these 2 people are indeed "valuable" and as a result, a high price for their freedom can be extracted.
“Come on girls! Let me introduce you to the Mile High Club! Yee Haw - we’s gonna make us an Uncle Billy Sandwich!”
And in the meantime, Hillary has been sent to Kenya to remind them of whatever threats Rham made regarding that birf certifikat.
These women worked for Al Gore’s stupid little TV station. They had no business being there. I really didn’t care if they got out or not. I’m sure we gave Il something - maybe Gore anted up, who knows? In the long run, it’s unimportant because ostammer has been punked by so many evil leaders, dictators, etc., and shunned our friends and apologized for our great country all around the world that it really doesn’t matter.
Move along, folks. Nothing to see here.
That is a joke right?
I guess you were sleeping 1992-2000.
Naw....he's getting up there in age. I'll say foreplay on the first one. as he's passing the 180th parallel.
I'm not so sure. I'd almost bet that Hitlery arranged this in secret to embarass O as payback for ignoring her.
Perhaps. But as much as I disliked him, Bill is no where near the fascist as Obama. And the political acumen difference is vast. How sad is it that compared to Obama, Bill looks like a saint?
Clinton is no Saint!
In terms of destroying this country, compared to Obama he is.
