I am glad that the 10 Americans sailors where released unharmed this morning.

It could have turned out bad for those sailors and their families. I am proud of Sec. Kerry. It did not escalate into a major crisis. I know the right wing won't see that way. But calmer heads use communication as tool and not threats, which would have angered the Iranians and complicate the situation, unlike those Neo Cons would have pushed the wrong buttons and the sailors would have been in danger even more than they were. That is way America is still GREAT and will always be!

4. That fucker Steve Schmidt was trying to blow this thing up into the

1979 hostage crisis v2.0 last night on MSNBC. I'm sure he was crestfallen this morning, waking up to the news that everything ended peacefully.

K&R.

5. I don't think there's any inherent reason for Iran and us to be adversaries...

...despite a history of nasty incidents. If the provocateurs on both sides would just STFU for a while, we could get along just fine.

6. 10 Iranian Sailors in American territorial waters detained by US coast guard

they have now been shipped to Gitmo

Can you imagine if it was the other way around?

7. Let's face it. Republicans are mourning the loss of a cudgel to beat the President with.

Cooler heads on both sides prevailed.
