Clinton's the Man


In case you have not heard already, the AP reported that North Korea's President, Kim Jonh Il has issued a special pardon and release for Laura Ling and Euna Lee at former United States President Bill Clinton's request. The two female journalists have been arrested since March and were sentenced to 12 years of hard labor.

This was a first meeting with a prominent Western figure for the North Korean leader since he had his stroke a year ago.
