Same red jacket he had on the other 2 TV appearances. Ain’t right. Maybe enough Former Cubans will go back and change the political scene.

Does Cuba still have that deal they made with the Soviet Union back during the missile crisis? Or would that have been dissolved under Reagan?

I hope this guy knows that in less than 10 years, every statue and banner of him will end up in a pit with Stalin’s junk!

>> Cuba will continue to develop and improve the fighting abilities of its people, including our modest but active and efficient defensive weapons industry

What the hell is he talking about?

He can’t even defend himself against SICKO Moore.... So we should worry?

Oh, just hurry up and die, you frigging old commie murderer. If we wanted your dirty little country, we’d have kept it after 1898. It would be pretty cool to let the mafia turn it into a giant casino/whorehouse like it used to be, however.

I like to think that these poor people will be able to turn Cuba into the pearl that it once was once this evil man is dead, but they’ve probably been brain-washed for too long.

Recovering from communism ain’t easy.

Yeah, Jimmy Carter will be leading the invasion force himself.

That’s why Castro is so confident.

He added: "Mr. Bush, don't you doubt it either. I assure you that you will never have Cuba."

This assumes we WANT Cuba...Why would we want Cuba (other than it's cigars)?
