As we bask in Obamaphoria, having exercised our inalienable right to choose our own political leadership, please take a moment to consider the plight of 28-year-old blogger Nay Phone Latt, who has been sentenced to 20 years in prison by the Burmese regime. News has also come of 14 Burmese pro-democracy activists who have received sentences of 65 years each.
Diplomatic statements of outrage are warranted at the very least. They should be directed at China as well, for maintaining this disgusting regime in power.
