#3 More like 'in spite of' Obama.

But watch him take the credit for it...

#4 May be 'thanks to Obama' - we just may not know - or like - what he may have traded for the release.

#5 Personally, I think Marine Force Recon should have paid a 'visit' to the jail and said "Howdy".

#7 As far as I can tell, this Marine brought the problems onto himself. The rest of the story is here: http://www.sandiegored.com/noticias/53181/Andrew-Tahmooressi-Fires-Lawyer-As-Story-Unravels-What-next/

He's lucky that he's getting out.

#8 Does he get his truck and firearms back?

#9 I suspect that it was the truck and guns that the Mexican LEO's wanted in the first place. Arresting the marine was just a way of getting them.
