6. Why has no source ever mentioned he's been living in his HOME?
I had to learn this from a caption under a photograph. As right-wing loons were spinning this, wringing it for all they could squeeze from the story, I assumed he was in prison or something. Very odd. I'll bet this has been a real joy for his WIFE, for chrissakes as she watches him going through this one more time, wondering if this is the time he'll succumb to his form of emotional blackmail.

If he lived in the U.S. he could get a great job pretending he'd been in an accident, as in insurance fraud, or that mega biggo scam the South Florida Cuban exiles have been running for YEARS, Medicare fraud, to the tune of many, MANY, MANY millions of dollars.

Cuban dissident Guillermo Farinas speaks on the phone
during an interview with The Associated Press at his
home in Santa Clara, Cuba, Friday, March 5, 2010.
Farinas has been refusing food and water for more than
a week to protest the Feb. 23 death of another hunger
striking dissident, Orlando Zapata Tamayo. Farinas is
also demanding the release of 33 political prisoners
who are in poor health.

Clara Perez, wife of Cuban dissident Guillermo Farinas,
stands beside baby pictures of her husband March 5,
2010 in her home in Santa Clara, central Cuba. Farinas,
48, stopped eating and drinking on Feb. 24, a day after
the death of political prisoner Orlando Zapata Tamayo
following an 85-day hunger strike, which touched off an
international outcry against Cuba that has yet to end.
Farinas collapsed and was rushed to a hospital on
Thursday, but appeared to be recovering as doctors
administered fluids intravenously, his spokeswoman said.
