30-Year Anniversary of Iran Hostages Release

Not much of a surprise that the liberal media doesn't make more of this. After all, it was their president, Smilin' Jimmy Carter that failed to procure the release. It's no wonder that they don't want to remind you of the legacy of failure that was the presidential peanut farmer.

We Americans are slow to anger. We always seek peaceful avenues before resorting to the use of force — and we did. We tried quiet diplomacy, public condemnation, economic sanctions, and demonstrations of military force. None succeeded. Despite our repeated warnings, Qadhafi continued his reckless policy of intimidation, his relentless pursuit of terror. He counted on America to be passive. He counted wrong. I warned that there should be no place on Earth where terrorists can rest and train and practice their deadly skills. I meant it. I said that we would act with others, if possible, and alone if necessary to ensure that terrorists have no sanctuary anywhere. Tonight, we have.

Maybe Carter should have learned from this man. Qadhafi sure did.
