Can someone explain to me the difference between prisoner and hostage?  For instance, do we exchanges prisoners for other prisoners, or is that something we only do with hostages?

And just a bit of theoretical fancifulness - if John Bolton's moustache were the Secretary of State instead of Overcharge Clinton, would I be asking that question at all?

Remember this the next time you see his sanctimonious mug on TV lecturing you about something or other.

Toobin and Casey Greenfield, a 36 year-old Yale-educated lawyer—daughter CBS analyst Jeff Greenfield—had an on-and-off affair for many years. In 2008, he got her pregnant. And Toobin went above and beyond his duty as her lover: He offered to pay for an abortion. But that's not all: He would also pay for her to have another baby with a sperm donor, according to the Daily News.
