Thank you lysie. I remember those days. I remember Nixon trying to alert Preisdent Eisenhower and the adminstration, at that time, that Castro was a communist. The democrats and a lot of Republicans began calling Nixon a liar. I also remember Castro being welcomed to NY City and put in the Waldorf Astoria, I think he was given 4 or 5 floors. One night during his stay in the US he decided to have a “party” in his suite (free to the new gov’t of Cuba, thanks to the US), Castro decided to have a bbq and build a fire in the middle of the floor of his suite. I’m not kidding, if it’s not been pulled, it’s somewhere in the “Old Time” or “Post” magezines. It was an amazing, unbelievable piece of “No Care and NO Respect” by a visitor to the Us. Cuba did not pay for the repairs, the US did. So from the beginning, our democrats and a lot of “progressives” of that time did not want to call Castro “common faire” and dangerous, as my Mom did.
All liberals, “progressives” are of the same ilk, look what Pussy Pelosi has done as “screetcher of the house” with her demands of an AF 757 fully equiped aircraft with a full compliment of AF personnel to do her bidding. They are all alike and we have a full compliment of progressives in OUR whitehouse accompained by his tzars, the AG and the democrat party with some Rinos in the republican party.
We must be very alert of what is happening in our country. We cannot allow what has happened in Cuba, Old Russia and the Sudaten Land after WWII. We cannot let the American Idea die.
Nicely stated, till. I agree.
