This is a wonderful outcome for those women, I hope they can move past their ordeal and enjoy their freedom once again. Thank you SoS Hillary Rodham Clinton and Pres. Clinton!
All the skill and hard work to get the peace plan in Ireland signed was something that I thought Bill Clinton should have gotten a Nobel Peace prize for. Maybe he will for this

I hope so to. He made us so proud of him today. What a great statesmen. Thank you President Clinton.
Sanders Thanks for the pictures. I was so moved by watching this this morning. If anyone has video it's worth the watch. What a great tribute for President Clinton. Thank You Mr President.

Many kudos to Pres.Clinton. He has really made personal sacrifice in this to go get the people. He was not happy to be there, but he did go there and bring them back.
SoS Clinton has been talking tough on North Korea and this is in fact very delicate dance the Clinton couples have played on the global platform. They have treated these two factors (prisoners and the nuclear power) as two different issues. They are bullies out there in N.Korea and take off on face-power.

When I saw Pres. Clinton looking at the faces of the families, I noticed humility and pride.
