I wonder what part of Cuba they will be allowed to see? Surely not here:
Lots more images of Castro's paradise.

Cindy Sheehan, anti-war movement icon, has deep ties to the Code Pink organization. Will she be going on their, "Friendship Delegation" to Cuba in January? Or on their communist pilgrimage to Venezuala to attend the World Social[ist] Forum in February?
Code Pink is yet another anti-war organization, socialist in orientation and leadership, that is dishonest about their goals and aims, tirelessly calling the United States an oppressive terrorist power.
Let's go to Cuba? Feel like Bush is trying to crush your dissent? Tired of chanting death to America at anti-war rallies only to find that the American people won't join you in your revolutionary fervor? Then have we got a place for you! "Cuba is one of the most beautiful and fascinating countries on Earth-and George Bush says you can't go there. Well, we're going anyway, and we invite you to join us!" codepinkalert.org
Cuba. The place where, "No dissent is allowed." Why would Code Pink want to celebrate a communist dictatorship? They celebrate it because it is the model for what they are fighting to bring about: a socialist government. Nevermind the repression, the cost in human lives, the dissidents imprisoned and executed purely for disagreeing with Castro's dictatorship. These are small sacrifices for the worthy cause of bringing all peoples into the global family of international socialism.
The Bush administration says we can only travel to Cuba if we have immediate family there. Well, we do. Cubans ARE family-Somos Familia. And while we're there, we'll be holding a mutual adoption ceremony in order to demonstrate that family transcends political boundaries. In the ceremony, each participant will be paired with a Cuban brother or sister. After all, we are all part of one human family and there should be no artificial barriers dividing us. CodePink Medea Benjamin is the founder of Code Pink and is a committed Marxist. She also runs the tour company that will be taking Code Pink participants to the World Social Forum in December.
Need more proof that Code Pink is not referring to femininity? Not only does she agree with Michael Moore that Iraqi insurgents are freedom fighters, but she is willing to send cash to support their cause.
Members of Families for Peace, Code Pink and Global Exchange told a news conference in Amman that they had sent 600,000 dollars' worth of humanitarian aid to residents of the Iraqi town of Fallujah displaced by last month's massive US-led assault.
"I don't know of any other case in history in which the parents of fallen soldiers collected medicine ... for the families of the 'other side'," said Medea Benjamin, the founding director of Global Exchange, a human rights group.
"It is a reflection of a growing movement in the United States ... opposed to the unjust nature of this war," she said. commondreams.org
This gives a whole new meaning to the phrase, "I support the troops but not their mission." What this news brief does not mention is exactly what this 'humanitarian aid' actually consisted of.
Anti-American and anti-capitalist, these soldiers for 'social justice' wage war against the very thing that makes lessening poverty possible-- profit. They fight for a day when an absolute equality can be enforced in contradiction to all natural law and humanity. An equality born out of a cult of envy and used to manipulate those who harbor deep seated greed and spite. An equality whose revolutions have played out time and time again throughout the twentieth century with disasterous effect. We know historically that omelettes don't get made without breaking a few eggs. If Medea Benjamin, founder of Code Pink, ever got her revolution it would likely result in untold murders at the hands of the enforcers of her egalitaria.
For without profit everyone is poor. Without profit we all get to live (or die as the case may be) in abject poverty, without medicine, without science, without technology, and without that which makes survival possible. Essentially, the progressive goal is global bankruptcy. To return mankind to a 'closer relationship' with the earth as it were.
In fact, it is the goose that lays the golden eggs that is a target of the left. This is why America, as the symbol of capitalism, is the target of their rage and slanderous propaganda. Even though destroying capitalist America would not only result in misery for Americans, but for the entire world, they proceed on the premise that as the creator of income disparity it must be shackled and essentially destroyed.
Despite the fact that capitalism has brought untold prosperity to every country that practices it, progressives the world over still cling to the discredited idea that profit is evil and capitalism is oppressive. As if the problem is that in capitalist countries geese are laying golden eggs. But in a world of poverty, is the creation of wealth a problem to be overcome by ensuring wealth creation is sabotaged? Wouldn't it make more sense to say that we need more geese laying golden eggs, rather than less?
The words and actions of this woman are treasonous. If she loves Cuba and communism so much, after she gets there, she can just stay there.....OR..... she can come back to the land which ensured her freedom to be a complete fool and spend the rest of her days in prison. This crap has to stop.

This is Mike Rosen at his best and an excellent lesson on how to debate / talk to the wacko left when you encounter them.
This guest appearance by Jodie Evans is an eye-opener and an insight into the blame America hate America crowd that now dominate the democRATic party. Jodie Evans = Howard Dean = Ward Churchill = Cindy Sheehan = John Kerry = Hillary Clinton and so on. They are all linked together. A vote for one is a vote for all.
we should be more of an opressive terrorist power. opressive to liberal swine and terrorizing socialist, communist, and athiest regimes.

heh heh ...now now ;^)
I just received this in my email. This video is SO cold there are no words for it. Being a military family member and viewing this has me completely disgusted and shaken. I'm posting the email and link below:
"The antiwar fanatics are going lower and lower. If you know or have lost a loved one there is a new flash being email around using the faces of our fallen for protest. It is rough so prepare yourself before you watch.

There has to be a way to make these people stop using photographs and names without permission. We can prepare a group statement for our web denouncing such use. Please give some feedback to us. Working as a group on such projects will do much more than going as individuals."
Ping to post # 4. Interview last Thursday 10/20 with Jodie Evans, revealing without a doubt that she was standing behind the door when they gave out history books in school and has scant ability to listen and respond logically. Lo-o-o-nng radio interview by Mike Rosen, Colorado, but worth the laughs. Don't listen if you have a headache, since the involuntary eye-rolling may hurt.
They lie so much. Code Pink is to support World Socialism and nothing more.

Castro has nothing but his human capital to sell. No Natural Resources to offer. With the Collapse of the Soviet Empire Cuba has little to offer. He is exporting Doctors, and Socialized Medicine. He has a higher literacy rate than the US. But Cubans are poor as a Nation.
Want to see a Laboratory for Liberal failure look at Detroit Michigan. Where there are 12,000 empty and abandoned homes. And the Literacy rate amongst adults is 45%.
It's a shame we can't simply deport these enemies of freedom to which ever socialist state they prefer and then become isolationist for a year or two, neither exporting nor importing goods, handing out zero money in aid to any nation, and shutting down immigration completely. Let's see how much the jealous world "hates" us after that. :)
It's too bad we have this garbage in this country; but I believe common sense will eventually win out and these scumbags will have to go back under their rock.
Great article
