Default Re: You got nothing to worry abt. We have Bobby...

Tango?...

Is this video clip about something specific? Or just a general fixing tale?

A question: Could the arc of a pro-west democracy story be fixed right now by the American swimmer in Burma? Or could it be a Burmese fixer story? It's so odd.

Burma's Suu Kyi faces trial over American intruder
Pro-democracy leader accused of violating house arrest and could be jailed for up to five years

...The American man has been charged with entering a restricted zone and breaking immigration laws. Her lawyers said Suu Kyi did not invite the man to her compound.

The trial could be used to justify another extension of Suu Kyi's six-year detention sentence, which officially ends on 27 May. In the past the junta, which regards her as the biggest threat to its rule, has found reasons to extend her house arrest, which international jurists say is illegal even under Burma's own law.

The American man, John William Yettaw, was arrested last week for allegedly swimming a lake to secretly enter Suu Kyi's home and staying there for two days. His motives remain unclear.

"Everyone is very angry with this wretched American. He is the cause of all these problems," a Suu Kyi lawyer, Kyi Win, told reporters. "He's a fool."
