Richard Pryor did some great stuff in his prime. On one of his features made from a live performance he said: "I hear black people say "I woulda told them Nazis..." "You wouldnta told them Nazis NOTHING! Them Nazis didn't play, Jack - "Vat did you say? Oh, nuthin - like them boots, home!"

Gary Bauer proved himself to be a lightweight twerp with his McCain endorsement.

Castro would not be there if it wasn't for Kennedy's unfathomable refusal to send in air support at the Bay of Pigs.

The Cuban Missile Crisis was his thank you from that miserable bearded SOB who has remained in power since then by opening up a big mouth every time a demonratic President is in office and keeping a low profile when the GOP is in power.

His cult of personality will die with him and I am looking forward to vacationing there when that country once again is free.

We agree.. that was a bad, bad move..

A succinct and excellent letter -- thanks for the ping.

Thanks for the flag, great article, and to the point.

If anyone would ever actually tell the American people the truth, that Castro is about to become the benefactor of our tax dollars, the embargo would stay in place.

Maybe it is time that those radical ultra right wing Miami Mafia types, hit the streets and refuse to pay taxes because we object to our taxes being used to prop up the continuing oppression of the totalitarian, terrorist government of Cuba.

You guys in?
