Ultimately, I was convicted of a terrible crime and made to hand over the day's copies of The New York Times and The Washington Post, plus some printouts of wire service stories dealing with Castro's illness. If that's his choice of reading material, I'm guessing he was shocked to discover that Cuba is not a paradise of human rights and civil liberties.

NOW, IF we could only ENFORCE OUR LAWS HERE, and handle ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS this way ... but no, in a communist country people are required to respect and obey laws.

Comrade Castro is in perfect health. There is no illness in Comrade Castro.

"You're slipping. It took until Post 3 before you attempted the hijack."
I know this is taxing for someone like you ... however it's interesting to note how LEGAL tourists are checked over while in AMERICA, we turn a BLIND EYE to ILLEGAL guests etc..
Are YOU ILLEGAL? You're so touchy about this ILLEGAL alien issue and siding WITH ILLEGALS.

It's good to see the Red Star begin to spin themselves slowly out of Castro's mesmerizing influence.
They've doted on the bearded blackguard for decades.

No, you are a nutbag who attempts to turn every thread into an illegal immigration thread and it is damned annoying.
You have no respect for this forum or any of the rules of decorum.
Shut the hell up about immigration on threads totally unrelated to the topic.
I'm legal. You're a nutbag.

"No, you are a nutbag who attempts to turn every thread into an illegal immigration thread and it is damned annoying."
LOL!!! "EVERY THREAD? Double LOL!!!! I wonder why mentioning ILLEGALS annoys YOU so much ... . Is your Mom or Dad illegal? Girlfriend, boyfriend ILLEGAL?
"You have no respect for this forum or any of the rules of decorum."
Why is it that liberals ALWAYS disrespect the rules of any situation and than accuse OTHERS of what THEY DO? Perhaps you lack the ability to respond civilly to others? Don't worry, that's expected from people like you.
"Shut the hell up about immigration on threads totally unrelated to the topic. "
Another RULE on FR is NOT to SWEAR or CURSE. It's considered bad manners in this forum. Go over to DU and do your swearing and cursing. They too, WANT ILLEGALS to disregard RULES and just keep on coming!
"I'm legal. You're a nutbag."
There you go again ... "nutbag" ... . Name calling is also NOT allowed in the RULES on FR.

Truth is a complete defense. Deal with it.
If you can't find an immigration thread to spout off on, you are in very sorry shape.
This isn't one of them.
Of course, that hasn't stopped you from accusing me of being an illegal alien, or being related to or even knowing one. No, in the nmh world, it's ALL about illegal aliens.
You are obsessed. By the way, I've never been so much as reprimanded here at FR, much less suspended. Can you say the same? Without lying, of course.
Now get lost.

Thanks for the posting. Interesting to see the state of mind of Cuban officialdom in the current situation. Appears they're as eager to find out news as the rest of the world is.

I think you should have to do 30 years for being stupid if caught reading the nytimes.

The reporter is from the Toronto Star which is a Liberal Party house organ.
Of course his reading material would include the New York Times and the Washington Post and Reuters. He probably sees them as giving him a perspective that would be somewhat to the right of his own paper.

Wow.. Amazing..
I would have thought that either being a Toronto "Red" Star reporter OR having a copy of the New York Times would be sufficient to get you honourary membership to the Cuban Communist Party..
