(August 7, 2009) North Korea wanted star power and they found it in Bill Clinton. He secured the release of the two hostages, but the news focused on his meeting with the elusive Kim Jong Il. Was it a PR coup for Kim, or a thawing of the ice between the U.S. and the D.P.R.K.?

  • BILL CLINTON SAVE US

  • they should just bomb burma's nuclear reactor and fuck up their army..

  • they r freqing lucky people very lucky cause it would never happened again. Its a fairytale

  • I'm glad they're back home! I think it will be awhile before anymore journalists make the same mistake and get locked up in a hostile country - they had plenty FAIR warning of the consequences. The picture of Mr. Clinton & Mr. Il is hilarious to me it looks 'photoshopped" and fake because of the two contrasting expressions on their faces. Kim looks ecstatic! Im glad Clinton can still use his clout to do good in the world; I heard that this "PR event" was set up by Al Gore & not Hillary Clinton.

  • You know Bill volunteered for the job so fast...I wonder if the plane had a lay over some where. loll

  • I am glad the women are back with their families and think they should be given some privacy while they recover

  • Kim Jong Il has had a huge crush on bill for years

  • So lame...tell me something I don't know!

  • I do believe that Bill was being sincere without kissing up to Kim Jong Il. I also like this style of presenting news and letting people come up with their own conclusions. Definitely check out the global pulse channel on youtube.

  • the whole things seems like one big set up
