Assange and Correa, opposite poles of freedom (Score 0)

What most people doesn't realize is how oppresive and unfair is Correa's government. This entire asylum provision is nothing more than a political strategy from Correa to make look the 'yankees' bad and post himself as a martyr of a sovereign nation. Correa is pairing up with Hugo Chavez, Fidel Castro, Evo Morales (the one that wants to legalize coke in Bolivia) and so on. This is a new wave of communist / socialists that have done nothing but oppress the population and press. If you guys investigate a little bit, you will see how Correa has put in jail and fined ridiculous fees to newspapers executives that speak wrongly about his government. Most interesting scandal is that one of "El Universo", one of the most popular diaries of my city, Guayaquil. http://www.globalpost.com/dispatch/news/regions/americas/120224/ecuador-libel-case-rafael-correa I guess it will be interesting seeing Assange's reaction once he arrives to a country that is currently crippled by oppresive laws which are silencing the press and population in favor of a corrupt government.
