One thing you can count on in this site, it always comes back to hating America. How f'ing original.
It must be nice to live in such perfect countries. Or doesn't your country's history matter?
Let's call a spade a spade, shall we? you right wingers don't really care a fig about whether Castro rules with a heavy hand. What enrages you is that he's a leftist who has managed to defy American imperialism for nearly 50 years. If he parroted the anti-communist line and prostrated himself to U.S. whims, you wouldn't care how many people languished in his jails.

And the fact the Cuba has one of the best health care systems in the world...
Dats some swell accolade for King Castro. He is, in reality, the king, has been for 47 years.

Do you care .... about these people who languished and are still languishing in his jails ? Do you care about those executed by Mr. Castro for political reasons ?

How much time did you spend wringing your hands over Samoza, or Pinochet, or Baby Doc, or Batista, or Trujillo, or any of the dozens of other Latin American thugs supported by the U.S. at one time or another? None at all I bet.
