This is amazing that Bill Clinton was able to negotiate the 2 condemned American reporters from North Korea.  It seemed like he just went over and asked with respect and politeness and tada!  That is insane, but the results are excellent.

I suspect this was a concerted effort by both Bill and Hillary Clinton.  The 2 families must be extremely grateful and I am certainly happy for them.

CNN:

Go figure. Bill Clinton waltzes into North Korea and wins the release of two journalists accused of entering North Korea illegally and engaging in hostile acts.

They were sentenced to 12-years at hard labor. Which in all likelihood they would never have survived.

The U.S. has been trying for weeks to win their release. From President Obama to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, all efforts have been rejected up to this point.

And then Bubba comes along and presto — the two women are free to go.

Makes you wonder what gives… The old expression is, “Beware of a stranger bearing gifts.” And no one is any stranger than Kim Jong Il, the weird little dictator who runs North Korea and goes around threatening to blow up the world.

Nuclear tests, missile firings… he’s a real day at the beach. And he refuses to even listen to the international community when they suggest he give up his nuclear weapons program in exchange for membership in the community of nations and things like food. North Korea has no food… But Kim could care less.
