I just. I can't even. Gah. I'm so incredibly proud of these guys, of my country, of democracy, of everything good in the world. I just keep thinking wow, what if these women had been my kids? And OMG, North Korea, man. Whatever you think of him politically, Bill Clinton is a giant hero, and so is the guy who asked him to do it in the first place.

BILL 'N' AL ARE WIN. Always were, always will be. Nothin' but win. You know there is a kick-ass fly-on-the-wall story behind all of this. One day I hope we'll get to hear it. For now... \O/ :-D

THEY ARE SO AWESOME IT ISN'T EVEN FUNNY. And the cool thing is, this isn't about politics. And if some politician tries to make it about that, they are so never gonna get my vote.

This story could so become a book. Which I will buy, and pimp.

My love for Al only grows deeper and more epic with each passing year.

omg I knoooooooooooooooooow. Bill Clinton is just so amazing, and I loved the video showing the reunion of the journalists with their families.

Also we both have 'big damn heros' tags, and we both used them for basically the exact same post, which makes me smile.

I actually made the 'big damn heroes' tag for this occasion, but I'm sure I'll use it again because the world is full of 'em. ;)
