BULLETIN - AT 9:25 A.M. ET:  From CNN:

Tehran, Iran (CNN) -- Iran will charge three American hikers who strayed into the country with espionage, a Tehran prosecutor said Monday.

The announcement comes only days after U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton met privately with the families Shane Bauer, Sarah Shourd and Josh Fattal, who were detained along the Iran-Iraq border at the end of July.

COMMENT:  Another slap in our faces by the government in Tehran.  Effectively, these three are now hostages.  So we have another hostage crisis with Iran. 

How will Obama react?  How would you think?

Yawn.
