I guess I should somehow apologize that a President of the United States was getting a ******* from an intern while in the White House.

Gee, who'd have ever thought something like that would come back to haunt him.

You paint with a mighty wide brush.

Pathetic adj.-Arousing sympathy, pity, or tenderness. (Not looking for it or asking for it)

Somehow, I don't think that was your goal, Funride. Somehow, I can't imagine people left-of-center holding their collective tongues if the tables were turned and some disgraced Republican went to ask (demand is more appropriate with N. Korea) for their release. While I am glad they are free and loved their reaction to returning to the US, maybe they shouldn't have gone over there with the deer in the headlights mentality about a dictatorship that is bent on causing problems in the world. I think most US citizens are bright enough to not step foot in Iran, North Korea, or other countries that repress all free thought.

PS. I'm sure no one on here has ever made equally disparaging comments about George Bush. Sounds like the so-called Fairness Doctrine to me.

We are extremely glad that Billy was able to release them and that they are safe at home with their families. But, Billy's still a **** Head and a *** Clown.

Here have a cigar...Your going to go far.

Good one. Didn't mean to capture everybody, apologize for that.

It's just sad that their release has got to be immediately turned into a conspiracy where former US VP is "negotiating" with Kim for US military rocket technology. N. Korea apparently asked for "US officials" to come to them.

I've been attempting to stay away from this area, and conversations like this remind me why I no longer need to visit here. It's a depressing place to spend ones time.

Good to hear anyway.....They were retards for being there in the first place. Now these ones in Iran are in the same boat. No idea what the future holds for these "journalists". I don't see any miracle releases happening for those poor slobs. They think it's "adventure journalism"....well they got themselves an adventure alright. It's beyond belief.

It's not that I'm not glad they back, it's the concept they can't grasp the gets me.

It is really simple.

When I leave the city I live in, I must realize the next city I go into may not have the same laws and regulations that I am used to. When I go out further and leave the county I lived in, I must realize that the next county may not have the same laws and regulations I am used to. When I leave the state I'm in and go to another state, I must realize that they may not have the same laws and regulations that I am used to. And when I leave this country, especially if I go to a country that we've had political differences with for 61 years, and the last few have been very tumultuous, I damn sure better know that they have different laws and regulations than I am used to.

No doubt. Couldn't agree more. The mentality to go on these trips to get the "killer story" is mind boggling. I guess they figure it's worth the risk for the career boost. Can't imagine what kind of career boost could be worth 12 years (likely more) of hard time in a N. Korean gulage. Those women are beyond lucky they're back in the safety of the US.

Maybe, just Maybe, they will see through the liberal haze and realize that being a tad more conservative is the way to go!
One can only hope!
