Cuba (Or Freedom Is Just Another Word For Nothing Left To Lose)

Laura Richardson, representative from California's thirty-seventh district has just returned from the beautiful island paradise of Cuba. She and members of the Congressional Black Caucus visited the Home of the Free for five days. On Fox News today, the congresswoman pronounced Fidel Castro, "witty, intelligent and charming". When asked to comment on Cuba's human rights record the extolled the amazing freedom on the island.

I, for one, am cheered by Rep. Richardson's assessment of Castro. After all, Rep. Richardson is herself, the pinnacle of character as illustrated here and here.
