American Journalists Freed!

I'm not a real fan of former president Bill Clinton, but kudos to him and thanks to God that the two U.S. journalists held captive in North Korea have been freed. Originally accused of "hostile acts" and illegal entry, the two women were sentenced a couple of months ago to 12 years of hard labor -- which, in North Korea's prison system, could've resulted in their death or indefinite captivity. News of their release is most welcome, and I'm grateful that Clinton used his influence to secure their freedom.
