Conservative Donnybrook

Politicians in Washington are constantly hollering about the need to secure freedom for Iraqis, Kosovars, Afghanis, the people of Myanmar, etc… But it seems they forgot about the Americans held hostage in Columbia.

These men served their country only to be abandoned by it. Increased effort must be spent to free our fellow countrymen from the clutches of their communist terror. FARC is a dangerous organization many believe to be operating with the blessing, if not more, of Comrade Chavez in Venezuela. Freeing these men (by any means necessary) should coincide with an American economic and military return to the Western hemisphere. In addition to securing the blessings of freedom to our citizens held in captivity, an operation would demonstrate American resolve to the Tyrant of Venezuela and the members of FARC.

So rarely do we hear tales of actual bravery and the will to survive.  An Australian fisherman swam to shore to get help for his crewmates.  The swim took almost 12 hours, but the Aussie made it.  His friend and crewmate was later found clingy to an ice chest adrift in the ocean.

For your bravery, determination and will to survive I salute you Mr. Williams.  Good work.
