That's Weird… Obama Urges Burma to Release Aung San Suu Kyi

That’s weird. After supporting the killer regime over the Iranian democratic protesters, the Castro regime over the persecuted Cuban people, and former criminal President Manuel Zelaya over the people of Honduras…
President Obama told the leaders of Burma to release pro-democracy leader Aung San Suu Kyi today.

Aung San Suu Kyi has been under house arrest for 14 years.
The BBC reported:

US President Barack Obama has urged Burma’s prime minister to release the pro-democracy leader, Aung San Suu Kyi.

Mr Obama delivered the message as he met leaders of the Asean grouping of south-east Asian nations in Singapore.

White House press secretary said Mr Obama raised the issue “directly” with General Thein Sein.

Ms Suu Kyi’s house arrest was extended in August beyond the elections planned for next year. She has spent 14 years in detention in the past two decades.

Well, at least he got this one right.
