Is This A Great Country Or What? (LINK INCLUDED)

(UPDATED TO INCLUDED LINK TO THE ARTICLE...that's what happens when you post before 7 AM as you're headed out the door for work).

The arrest of alleged Cuban spies Carlos Alvarez (not the mayor) and his wife Elsa has created quite a stir in the community, and of course lots of media coverage.

One of the stories I read this morning regarding the arrests deals with the Antonio Maceo Brigade, a leftist organization started in Miami by Cuban-Americans who support the Cuban Revolution. Elsa Alvarez was a member of that group.

That's right. Here in mean ol' intolerant Miami, an active pro-castro group is open about its allegiance to the Cuban Revolution.

If you don't believe me, here's a quote from their leader, Andres Gomez:

''There is no question that the Antonio Maceo Brigade is a leftist organization that coincides with the goals and aspirations of the Cuban revolution".

Like I said in the title, and with no sarcasm intended whatsoever, what a great country we live in! Imagine what would happen to someone who was openly anti-castro and anti-regime in Cuba?
