53. Who died and left you in charge?
You will not give a "pass" to Castro and Kim Jong Il? What exactly does that mean? Does it mean that you support their overthrow at the hands of the USA, regardless of how their own people feel about them?

Have you ever considered what the feelings of a majority of Cubans or North Koreans are on this subject? You or I may not want to live under such systems, but has it dawned on you that others MIGHT be ok with it? Try as I might, I cannot come up with any solid evidence that the Cuban people in vast majority are deadset against Fidel Castro or the Cuban Socialist system. In fact, most seem to love the guy and MORE than most appear to solidly support their own brand of socialist system there.

Are they children needing the firm paternalistic guiding hand of Daddy USA?

I applaud your resistance to the Iraq war. But I posit to you that this is just the exterior of a much deeper, much darker issue that ANSWER dares address. The question is, do YOU dare address it as well?
