23. Two different things
Debating how the US handles Cuba (as if it should) is different from saying that Fidel is a lovey-dovey cuddly bear.

That is in the same veign as "well since you don't support the US invasion of Iraq, then you think that Saddam should be back in power and that the rape rooms were okay."

You are in essence saying "since you think Castro is doing things wrong, then you think the US should invade and take over."

Not at all. What I am saying is that since the populace of this site is in the habit of supporting free-open elections and Human Rights in general, then why not apply it to the Castro regime as well.

Not all things anti-* are good.

Why does Cuba get a pass?
