Cuba voted in to United Nations Human Rights Comission. No really.



White House spokesman Ari Fleischer told reporters: "Cuba does not deserve a seat on the Human Rights Commission. Cuba deserves to be investigated by the Human Rights Commission."



In the past month, Cuban authorities have rounded up 75 dissidents and imprisoned them for terms of as many as 28 years. As part of the crackdown, Cuba executed three men who hijacked a ferry in a failed bid to reach the United States.
