........While his audience was clearly handpicked for its loyalty, his hold on them was palpable. .........

That's what living under communism, will do to you.

Maybe at first but then comes reality.

Hillary Clinton and the Third Way***............For these self-appointed social redeemers, the goal-"social justice"-is not about rectifying particular injustices, which would be practical and modest, and therefore conservative. Their crusade is about rectifying injustice in the very order of things. "Social Justice" for them is about a world reborn, a world in which prejudice and violence are absent, in which everyone is equal and equally advantaged and without fundamentally conflicting desires. It is a world that could only come into being through a re-structuring of human nature and of society itself. ..........***

...the island's continued poverty and repressive police-state conditions grind on.

Mikie finally states the most important aspect of Cuba under Castro in the last sentence. Sigh.

I think it's high time that Castro's "revolution" was brought to an end. I can't believe this cold war dinosaur has held on.

The speech was a rambling discourse filled with a torrent of invective aimed at President Bush, whom Castro called the hemisphere's "main terrorist."

Air America should add him to their Talk Show list....

I predict that Cuba or a combination of Cuba and Puerto Rico will be our 51st state.

Even while having to admit to the failures of this dictator, Wallace cannot help himself and tries to romanticize.

It's just astounding to watch these leftists. You can see the wheels turning in every one of them, thinking, "Socialism hasn't worked yet because I'm not in charge." They all seem to think that if only the right administrator were put into place, utopia could be had. It leads to Castros every time. They never learn.

"Fidel Castro, the man who changed Cuban history."

Aren't there a lot of men who changed Cuban history?

That seems a bit egotistical to say the least.

That being said, I think it's interesting that it was not an outdoor rally as usual. He must indeed be afraid of the situation. Another sign of that is that he allowed dissidents to meet instead of slamming them all in jail like he did a few years back.

Unbelievable that Castro has been able to remain in power for so long, and has caused the repression, misery and suffering of a people for fifty years.
