Good for him. I don't much like him, but at least he is doing something about this. The current President has "thrown them under the bus" in the name of political expediency. After all, isn't it much more important to condemn the white policeman for correctly arresting the disorderly black professor than pay attention to two women who are unjustly imprisoned?

Once again Bill Clinton will go down as a 'hero' in this situation, but was it really about him? I wonder what really transpired in all of this.

That is a huge question. There is no way that Bill Clinton went to North Korea without already having an agreement in place. Otherwise, he would have been completely embarrassed when he was refused entrance into the country.

The big question is, what did the US give up to North Korea so that this media circus could obscure Obama's attempts to coerce and extort Congress into passing his health care fiasco? I am sure that none of the media will be paying attention to anything other than Clinton's heroics, at least for the next few days.

First, it is good that the ladies are now safe away from the dreaded North Korea. Second, I do look forward to knowing what they have to say about their experience and how they were treated. Third, I wonder how Hillary feels about her husband still doing things that she should be doing.

It is good to see them back home. Being the staff of former Vice President Al Gore and having a sister who is a popular actress I'm sure put a lot of weight om all of this happening. It seems that Kim also specifically wanted Bill Clinton to come to North Korea.
