#2 If they'll take him in trade, I say go for it.

Hell, I'd throw in Jeanie Garofolo and Michael Moore to sweeten the deal if that's what it takes.

#10 Somewhere rattling around in my brain, and I may be making this up, during the 444 days, didn't someone go over to meet with the Iranians to negotiate, and they kept him!?

I've googled and I guess I am making this up --

#11 Not sure, Sherry, but if it's true and Jesse hears about it, the offer is obviously off and Ms. Saberi is once again, on her own.

#12 Don't forget Jimmah Cartah. They can settle some old scores.

#13 I think it would be grand if they offered Jesse a job as a harem guard. He would get shiny silk pants, his own scimitar and turban. After his surgery, of course.

#14 It's too bad the Iranians don't understand who/what Rev. Jackson is. If they did, Ms. Saberi would be in first-class on the next plane out.

#15 Why not send him to rescue the gal held by the Nork's? I understand thet have some good pizza. He would do a great job of confusing the Norks.

#18 Maybe the Iranians will keep Jesse Jackson.

#19 we need to send Sean Penn...then leak it that he's really a CIA operative gaining intel on iran & only claiming to be a leftist. Set mic for popcorn.
