A note on the Amazon ads: I've chosen to display current events titles in the Amazon box. Unfortunately, Amazon appears to promote a disproportionate number of angry-left books. I have no power over it at this time. Rest assured, I'm still a conservative.

Depends on your definition of "intellectual": If by "intellectual" you mean "useful idiot," then you're right. It seems as though some leading intellectuals, including Nobel laureate Gabriel Garcia Marquez, singer Harry Belafonte and actor Danny Glover have come out to support Cuban dictator Fidel Castro's crackdown on political dissent.
Glover, by the way, is MCI's pitchman for their local and long-distance telephone service. Those of you out there that are serviced by MCI might want to reconsider -- or at least let MCI know how you feel about their choice of pitchmen.
*UPDATE* You can find the complete statement, including all of the signers here.
