#2 Anon, not sure which article you were reading. This one is about a place called Cuba, not much having to do w/Jews. End of lesson, wipe the spittle off your chin, it's time for your nap.

#3 Looks like the Army of Steve has the Serbian Lop-Eared Troll infestation under control (or is that "conTROLL?")

#5 uh jose, Kennedy's demise prolly had a little more to do w/bro bobby taking on the mob after they helped get jack elected. Highly doubt castro pulled that one off.

#6 B-b-but they say they have a very high rate of literacy and free health care. That should surely outweigh minor things like thousands of political prisoners and executions.

#7 the free health care and high literacy rates are constantly quoted by Castro apologists but the only estimates of these we have are by the govt of Cuba so we don't know what these rates really mean

#8 mhw: That one guy managed to convert a car and a truck into watercraft and drive them to the US, so I'd say that Cuba's mechanical arts levels are pretty good too.

#9  the free health care and high literacy rates

The decent education allows the average Cuban to understand that rice, plantain, and waving at a fish/chicken is bad for health.

The per capita income in Cuba should second to nothing... It's all there! Only a dedicated Marxist could destroy Cuba.

Sorry. Cuba presses a button.

#10 Yeah bh, they keep those old 1950's cars running without parts-they use coat hangers and other home remedies to keep 'em running somebody else tried that again the other day (coverting a car to a boat) the first time was actually a truck
