Tyranny Talk

For all you leftists out there who claim that President Bush is subjecting you to tyranny and oppression, here's a news tidbit from your friend Fidel:

SANTA CLARA, Cuba, December 1 (www.cubanet.org) - Alila Sáez Romero, 23, has been sentenced to two years imprisonment for being disrespectful to President Fidel Castro.

When Sáez Romero was led from the closed-door trial, he could be heard shouting, "Down with the tyranny."

He was arrested for remarks he made November 25 against Castro. Witnesses against him were four women, all members of the Committee for the Defense of the Revolution or the Federation of Cuban Women.

You don't know how good you have it here in the United States of America.
