Wonder what Cheney has in store for Cuba?

[spanone]

I'm sure they're not gonna let Castro's brother become the de facto dictator.

This is like a perfect storm of international crisis and we have Bozo the Clown at

the helm.

1. A 21st century version of

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

2. It'll look like Haiti.

If Cheney gets his way.

3. My guess, an ocean front homesite! n/t

4. And just think, we will have American troops die

just so some millionaire ex-pat can claim that Sugar Plantation in Oriente, that they lost in 1959, that is up Shotgun Dick's alley.

5. Okay. Here's the plan.

Because of the weapons of mass destruction Rumsfeld knows are just north of Havana, the U.S. invades and deposes Raul Castro and the communists.

U.S. troops are greeted as liberators by the Cuban people with cigars and rum.

We then send in L. Paul Bremer III, because he is experienced, and we disband the Cuban army.

Then, we repeal all laws that restrict free enterprise.

Halliburton gets big contracts to rebuild Cuba.

This will all be paid for by sugar and cigar exports.

Freedom will then be on the march in Cuba.

This will work!

I swear this will work!

Really and truly it will work this time.

"Just wait!"

7. BushCo accused Cuba of making bioweapons in 2002

Just before Carter went to visit hoping to open a dialogue.

And they have 80 million dollars ready to fund a "transition" to democracy and freedom.

I'm sure whatever they are planning will be a spectacular success.

6. They have Halliburton and Blackwater on stand-by...n/t

[Jack Rabbit]

8. Whatever it is, I'm sure he plans to make a mint on it.

9. Hmm... ethanol from sugar cane that we can't grow here?

and of course all of the above.
