"Clinton expressed words of sincere apology to Kim Jong Il for the hostile acts committed by the two American journalists against the DPRK after illegally intruding into it," the news agency reported. "Clinton courteously conveyed to Kim Jong Il an earnest request of the U.S. government to leniently pardon them and send them back home from a humanitarian point of view.

Is this merely North Korean propaganda, or is Clinton continuing Obama's "apology" tour?

To suggest that the rest of the world is unaware of the situation in North Korea, is ridiculous.

I'm glad they have been released and glad for their families. Regardless of who was paying their bills, they were reporting on a horrible abuse of humans that needs uncovered. However, I am afraid we have paid too high a price and one that is likely to cost many lives. Establishing talks directly with the North and giving the Clintons yet another shot at screwing thing us even worse this time as Obama is the appeaser in chief is not good.

Ling and Lee are reporters for California-based Current TV -- a media venture launched by Clinton's former vice president, Al Gore.

ROTFL! Poor Slick Willie, pullin' his VP's chestnuts out of the fire again! Algore. What a loser.

Their parents must feel pretty good know that their daughters are in the good, safe and secure hands of Bill “Bubba”, “I did not have sexual relations with these two hot, young, voluptuous, Asian babes while on my plane” Clinton.

I’m glad they are coming home and it must be a relief for their families. The ‘teachable moment’ for them is witnessing FULL BLOWN, dictatorial Communism. I’ll be interested to know what they have found on ‘the other side’....and if they will be truthful to what they have seen.

They didn’t get released for FREE! The devil once again will be in the details which we may not find out for years!

This is from KCNA. Notice it says nothing about the release of the two women.

Kim Jong Il Meets Former U.S. President Bill Clinton Pyongyang, August 4 (KCNA) -- General Secretary Kim Jong Il today met with former U.S. President Bill Clinton and his party on a visit to the DPRK. Bill Clinton courteously conveyed a verbal message of U.S. President Barack Obama to Kim Jong Il. Kim Jong Il expressed thanks for this. He welcomed Clinton's visit to the DPRK and had an exhaustive conversation with him. There was a wide-ranging exchange of views on the matters of common concern. Present there were First Vice-Minister of Foreign Affairs Kang Sok Ju and Department Director of the WPK Central Committee Kim Yang Gon.
