What "good ol' Al" does not mention in this piece is WHY he met Elian Gonzalex. He went there to give Elian the "Freedom's Flame" Award fron his personally-run "charity," the Freedom Foundation. With Cuban communists beaming at his side, he presented that Award to Elian, who's mother died to give hiim freedom, and who was returned at gunpoint to that brutal dictatorship.

His connected organizations include the First Amendment Institute at Vanderbilt University. All boards are well-stocked with present and former employees of "good ol' Al," so when he says "frog," they jump.

Among the sychophants in the press who are part of Al's jihad against freedon are Judy Woodrull, Tim Russert, and Jim Lehrer. Neuharth, arogant b*stard that he is, is an enemy of freedom both in the US and outside its borders.

And in answer to the question he poses in his article, China has 1.3 billion people, a large army, and neuclear weapons. Cuba does not. We suck up to China (wrongfully) because of that. We don't suck up to Cuba because it is just as totalitarian as China, just as vicious, but is a gnat on the international stage.

I wrote a column on Al and his idea of freedom a while back. It was about his hangers-on who infest the boards of his various charities. It was entitled, "Wh*res to the Left of Ua, Wh*res to the Further Left of Us." You get the idea.

Al's the uber-boss, so Useless Today prints whatever drivel comes oout of his typewriter. Did I miss anything?

When I said ". . . no one has picked up the answer in this thread," I should have said "Until #59, no one had picked up the answer in this thread."

And in answer to the question he poses in his article, China has 1.3 billion people, a large army, and neuclear weapons. Cuba does not. We suck up to China (wrongfully) because of that. We don't suck up to Cuba because it is just as totalitarian as China, just as vicious, but is a gnat on the international stage.

So then you agree with the main premise of this article that the two policies are inconsistent even if you think the consistency should be the other way.
