15 hostages, including 3 Americans have been rescued from FARC in Colombia.
French-Colombian politician Ingrid Betancourt, three US nationals and 11 other hostages were rescued from Marxist FARC rebels Wednesday, freed from years in captivity by a daring Colombian military raid.
Betancourt, who was captured in 2002, and the three Americans held since 2003, were rescued along with 11 Colombian soldiers in dramatic fashion when the Colombian military infiltrated a rebel jungle camp and removed them by helicopter.
A plane carrying the Americans, Defense Department Contractors, is about to land in Texas.
Sen. John McCain was in Colombia today and said he was told about the rescue while there. He said it was a coincidence.

I KNEW IT!!!!!
McSame set up the hostage release! That damn capitalist pig-dog war mongering butcher! I bet he followed Bush (41)'s example of making Carter look bad...I know the truth!
Next McSame will be coordinating the riots in Denver because he wasn't in Chicago in 1968!
Wait a minute...I bet get set up the SDS riots and then got shot down on purpose so he couldn't be linked to it so he could run for president in 2008...He's a crafty one, he is! He had it planned down to a T!
