President Obama called Tuesday for the release of Americans held in Iran, individually naming them during a speech at the Veterans of Foreign Wars convention -- a week after his diplomatic team helped strike a nuclear accord with Iran that did not secure the prisoners' freedom.
The deal's failure to address the prisoners' status has fueled criticism of the Obama administration, though State Department officials have said they raised their imprisonment repeatedly. The president also scolded a reporter last week at a White House press conference for suggesting he was "content" to leave the prisoners out of the deal.

If Congress doesn’t pass this Iraanian deal then he will claim that that is why they won’t release them. Using the hostages as a reverse bargaining chip.
Oh, I thought it meant fark him. My bad.
Freep ole Big Ears.
Are we to think he cares now?
I hope this idiot enjoys fooling himself as he sure doesn’t fool us. I wouldn’t believe this man for all the tea in China.....
There was no public voice for the masses who are sick and tired of all this crap that's going on...
They needed every one of those years to proselytize through Hollywood, academia and the MSM until the American people were willing to bare their collective throat.
Did members of the VFW believe him? Why would they even let him in their front door? I don’t understand this at all..
Isn’t Obamas call to release Americans held in Iran possibly staged as part of the nuke deal with Iran? Corrections welcome.
Lets see if Iran releases Americans.
Reminds me of Andrew Jackson in a way. And that could carry Trump to the White House. Which would promptly become the Trump House but everybody would just be tickled that he was listening to at least half of what they wanted.
Afterthought. Americans are always an afterthought with this jackwagon.
But with Trump, now they are baring their collective teeth... oops, wasn’t in El Donkos’ plan.
What did jackwagons ever do to deserve the comparison.
Actually this was his trump card...and it was in the works from the get go.
Ditto
He is not stupid.
Everything he does he does on purpose, which makes it all the worse.
Duh,,,,brain surgeons made this agreement.
Obama is that squirelly little ponce that is holding a Royal Flush and asks for 4 cards - then folds . Later that evening he finds out what a Royal Flush is and complains he was cheated
Asking now will almost guarantee Iran will let them go....otherwise ‘their claim of good faith’ to keep the deal no deal all but goes into the dumpster.
I wouldn’t be surprised if Obama planned it this way so that he can get a Two-fer....the deal...and then the release of the Americans held...and why he said this was a “separate deal”.
This guy is so dumb and he is surrounded by like-minded boobs, that he needs the media to remind him about the hostages and flying flags at half mast for the soldiers killed in Tenn.
I mean...why not? The MSM is bot and paid for...and Hussein is totally corrupt....And the most powerful sissy in America
And Major was in on it.....I thought immediately..after that exchange...that was Hussein's plan.
I do not trust anyone..in the MSM. And you should not either.
