Just like their hero Fidel Castro.
One of the cells known as 'gavetas' (drawers) where prisoners had to spend most
of their time lying down because the roof was too low for them to stand up

A liberal friend of mine was upset that I commented this morning that it made me sick that Emilio and Gloria Estefan were hosting President Obama on April 15th for a $30,400-per-couple Democratic National Committee fundraiser in Miami. The Estefans have long complained of the oppression of Cuba. My friend said that Obama was not like Castro, and asked me to cite at least ten examples that Obama's ideology was that of or like Castro's.
I'm too busy right now to think straight, so I thought I'd ask fellow Freepers for help with this...
Attacks free speech threatening to use the FCC to silence his critics on radio. Threatening citizens with police state action.
Is consoliditing more power in the White House with Executive Orders - latest one his right to take over the internet in an “National Emergency”.
Calls his opponents “home grown terrorists.” Homeland Security sent out an MO on dangerous Americans: Vets, gun owners, constitutionalists, Christians...
Talks at the public non-stop in constant political harassment.
His party making public school kids sing dear leader songs in the classroom.
He incorporated his homeland troop design in the healthcare plan.
He acts like a rude and uncaring thug - to America’s democratic allies. He has allied himself with America’s enemies. He is disrespectful and thugish towards Republicans or towards business owners who speak out against his policies. This is a Republic - all voices should be heard gracefully and both parties should be involved in massive change like Obama has done to our country’s economic and social structure! America is not a one-party dictatorship; but Cuba is and since Obama came, America is too.
He has been complimented by Fidel and the communist party of the US for centralizing the banking, car and health care industries.
Corrupting elections with endless and selective recounts (i.e. Al Franken) until the Dems win, refuses to allow citizenship proof for voting, Acorn corruption.
Finally, he is best known by his long list of communist czars, supporters and friends. ie, Ayers, Wright, Dornan, Van Jones...
