"We don't intend to turn the Republican Party over to the traitors in the battle just ended. We will have no more of those candidates who are pledged to the same goals as our opposition and who seek our support. Turning the Party over to the so-called moderates wouldnt make any sense at all." -- President Ronald Reagan |

"It does not take a majority to prevail, but rather an irate, tireless minority, keen on setting brushfires of freedom in the minds of men." - Samuel Adams |

"If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen." - Samuel Adams |

Freeing the hostages should’ve been a precondition before any negotiations occurred. The absolute dearth of logic and political acumen on this as well as numerous other similar items can lead to only a few conclusions...
1, that they just don’t care about people who don’t tow the administration line steadfastly.
or
2, A combination of the above and that they are totally clueless (inept).
I doubt this was ineptitude, they are doing these things on purpose - Ala Animal Farm where some animals are more equal than others.

Just read an item....Kerry said the hostages were brought up every day in the negotiations.
"Cept the President said differently didn't he."
To: SoConPubbie
Those four Americans are still hostages for the same reason that Bowe Bergdahl is not; because the president needed a photo op, and he needed it right away.

Not defending Obama, but I have a hard time working up much sympathy for anyone stupid enough to travel to Iran. However foreign governments should be made to fear messing with US citizens on general principle.

I’m thinking Cruz is one of the few in Congress who isnt bribed or blackmailed.
