Video of Hostage Rescue

The Colombian Government released video today that was taken during the rescue of the 15 hostages held by FARC this week.
You can see the captives with the hands bound boarding the helicopter for what they thought was a flight to a different FARC camp. Then you see the hostages reaction, including Ingrid Betancourt, on the helicopter after it was announced that they were free:

Too bad about the picture quality, but I guess they had other priorities, eh?

Also there, a video of John Murtha saying foolish things.

Who'd a thunk it.

Incidentally, Gateway Pundit was a blogging animal today. Keep on scrollin', it's all good. The Code Pink pinheads interrupted the Naturalization ceremony at Monticello today, and he has a clip of that, too.
