#1 A 60-day blockade of all shipping would be all it would take. Cuba cannot feed itself, and there's no stockpile of food to speak of. Cuba is a basketcase, and everybody knows it, even Fidel.

#2 Another prediction of the confusion of the left: Even as they protest our unwillingness to issue immediate citizenship to every poor soul fleeing such an obviously horrible place as Cuba ("we can't send them back!" they will cry), they will criticize our government's refusal to deal fairly with such an obviously beautiful place as Cuba. Thus far, the left appear to be arguing - when they argue at all - that Fidel's being an evil dictator has nothing to do with Fidel's being an evil dictator.

If only this were parody . . .

#3 FormerLiberal sez: "Even as they protest our unwillingness to issue immediate citizenship to every poor soul fleeing such an obviously horrible place as Cuba ("we can't send them back!" they will cry), they will criticize our government's refusal to deal fairly with such an obviously beautiful place as Cuba."

I knew thet the moonbats were chock full of doublethink.
