    The Photo with the guys does not help to get any attention. Please show a most recent photo, you will see how bad they look and not only the Americans but the other 700 Colombians that have been kidnapped in Colombia, some of them 10 years ago.
    By the way why the American media did not give a good coverage to the Colombian protest that was held on February 4th against the Farc, the Colombian guerrilla group?

    If you can't drop bombs on them Bush doesn't know what else to do.

    My heart and prayers go out to these three men and their families.
    How does our government sleep at night? How do the people that support these politicians sleep at night?
    We as Human Beings should be outraged to what we allow "our" government to get away with. Why isn't there a team of special ops helping these AMERICAN CITIZENS? It's been 5 years, and nothing. WHY??? I am ashamed to be an American sometimes, and situations like this don't help. Please, if this was your family, wouldn't you expect SOMETHING to be done. Why isn't this on the News, why am I watching Britney Spears and Paris Hilton on FOX News and CNN? What happened to us?

    "Three U.S. citizens have been held by Colombian rebels for five years. What is Washington doing about it"

    With gitmo [Guantanamo] and black-op CIA secrete prisons in western Europe, what can our government do about it, with out sounding like hypocritical fools. Consider these guys lucky, from the pictures, it doesn't look like they are forced to endure weatherboarding.

    Can't argue the high road, when you choose not to take it yourself...
