This

What

a difference it makes when the media does what it is supposed to in our

constitutional republic! A free press is supposed to hold officials

accountable.  Tragically, that mostly

hasn’t happened during the Obama years. 

In

recent days, however, the Wall Street

Journal revealed that the Obama administration paid a $400 million ransom

to the jihadist Iranian government for several American hostages. President

Obama and his flacks insisted no such thing had happened. 

Well,

yesterday, the Journal published the

details of the carefully synchronized transaction that resulted in the release

of the Americans as pallets of cash were turned over to the Iranian

Revolutionary Guard Corps – the mullahs’ terrorism arm. 

The

State Department’s spokesman finally confirmed the obvious: Team Obama did pay ransom. 

It’s

bad enough that we have been repeatedly lied to. Worse yet, we are all now

potential hostages.
