An innocent boy turned into a trophy for communism and a sock puppet for a brutal dictator courtesy of President Clinton and, sadly, the majority of our fellow Americans who sincerely believed that they were acting in the best interests of a "kidnapped son" being returned to his loving father. But then the road to Hell is paved ...
Don't you just love the way the media presents anything said positive by anyone anywhere in the world about President Bush or the USA as if it must be coerced, but unquestioningly accepts the sincerity of a child forcibly repatriated into a police state? It's awfully hard to blink in a pattern while writing a letter with a gun pointed at your temple, metaphorically or physically.
What the reprint does not say:
This article was written by journalists loving in Cuba and writing for the French press.
And the Cuban postal service intercepted a separate letter to Bill Clinton that read, "Damn you, old man! Damn you to hell!"
That reminds me of the beautiful thing that we and Cuba have in common. In the States, you can go right up to Dubya and say "You're an idiot!" and not get arrested. In Cuba, you can go right up to Fidel or Raul and say "Dubya's an idiot!" and not get arrested.
Seriously...do you think Bubba ever has second thoughts about how that raid worked out? More to the point, does Al Gore? I'm guessing they threw away a lot more than five hundred or a thousand votes that weekend.
Doesn't say much for the Clinton regime under which he lived a few weeks.
