Nothing happens in Cuba unless preceded by careful calculation by the regime. A small group of prisoners of conscience in Cuba, mostly ill, will be “liberated” by giving them the following options: “Go into forced exile, or remain in prison”. To some this piece of news is “a sign of improvement” in the human rights situation. But this looks like just another calculated move.

From the ludicrous characterization of constitutional “coup d'état” in the malicious writings of "journalist" Wilda Rodriguez in the Orlando Sentinel to the postings by Puerto Rican class hate ideologue Ramos Perea (his articles are published in Cuba where Cuban dissidents are not published) you would think that Puerto Rico is under a state of siege, or as Ms. Rodriguez called it “martial law” by Pinochet or Raúl Castro.

Imagine if a disgruntled or self-righteous sibling of yours, an employee, a spouse, a co-worker takes all your personal letters, files, photo albums, home movies, business files and letters, emails, insurance policies, trinkets, in essence, any or all of the material documentation of your daily dealings, and ran and gave it to a tabloid. Now imagine that they make it public. They put it out on print, the Internet, television, etc.

The President of the United States of America, Felipe Calderón and the President of the United States of México Barack H. Obama met recently at the White House and later the President of the United States, Felipe Calderón addressed the U.S. Congress. Say what? Well, it was hard to tell who the president of what country was.
President Calderón goes to the U.S. Congress and criticizes the rights of the federated State of Arizona to defend its borders and enforce federal law which is not being enforced, and he receives a standing ovation. I guess, due to traditional reciprocity laws and traditions in international law, President Obama will soon address the Mexican congress and criticize México for the way it treats its illegal immigrants.
