    From an old Chuchill story you may have heard.
    A fat lady, supported by her husband, says to me 'you are a fool for quoting wikileak"....I reply, yes, I did indeed quote it yesterday, but I have corrected my errors. You, on the other hand, will be fat, and dependent, for the rest of your life."
    Sound familiar? Sad stuff. You and Bernie. Sad stuff.

    "Cuba chased out the foreign capitalists"

    There you go. You finally gave the true reason why. It had nothing to do with political ideology. The capitalists got screwed out of ownership so they punished Castro and the Cuban people for expropriating property from the imperialists.
    Its called stealing and the Cubans and their crooked Castro communist govt what they deserved for doing that.... nothing .. no more trade no more prosperity. Cuba is stuck in time. Have you ever been there? I bet you have not. Its like going back in time to 1959. almost nothing is new or developed. Even the cars are old. and broken down because they cannot buy spare parts or new American cars and they have a bunch of ugly old Russian tincans. Communism and socialism are crooked. Their ideology is crooked and the people that promote these are also crooked.

    The USA stole Cuba from Spain using a likely boiler explosion on the USS Maine as a false flag lie that Spain attacked the boat. Stealing is what nations do.

    Not to you , Rajik, but to you libs....This all bespeaks that “it is a tough world.” Yes it is, but you libs don’t like tough, you want rainbows and lollipops. Makes me sick.

    If y’all moved to Norway, would your families be proud when they se you are living on welfare? You would, you know. Nanny state.

    Right, but you cannot blame Cuba for it's economic woes alone. The USA stole Spain's colony to make it the USA's colony. Those running the USA want their colony back, so they imposed an embargo on Cuba. My government is run by sore losers and they are lying about Cuba. Cuba's socialist like economy is not to blame for it's own economic woes, at least not entirely to blame.

    Cuba does have an impressive educational system and good medical system too. They take care of their people despite having their economy sabotaged by the empire. The Cuban people would have a better life without the trade embargo. Don't you agree?

    Why do you keep missing the point? Cuba of course will have a far better life with trade. But they do not deserve to trade with the US. Venezuela did the same thing. They expelled all foreign interests and seized their assets. They are now suffering. They deserve it.

    IF they were taking care of their people why the current revolt?

    Did Cuba expect no consequences when messing with the USA? Of course, today they could get away with anything, having Biden at the helm.

    We stole america from he Indians, and many countries over the centuries have 'stolen' countires and territories. That. my friend, is the way of he world. Note that the USA could have put its flag firmly on many countries, but after clearing up messes, we let them be.

    How do you know the ‘reasons’ that you mention in first paragraph? You font know.

    Your 2nd para is laughable. I am always amazed how you liberals take up for all these despotic countries.

    Dont confuse them Raj. Dont you see that libs revel in turmoil and unhappiness? They pretend to want all of this equality when in fact it is just the opposite. They want Pandamonium. Libs are truly not happy, so they don’t want anyone else to be either. I think there’s no question about that.


    I'm happy. Teaching kids softball this morning. I will definitely take advantage of the moment to tell them about slavery. But, how to pitch as well.

    You are denying accepted history. Cuba was a colony of Spain before the USA invaded and took it from Spain.

    I already said stealing is what countries do. Thanks for agreeing with me.
