167. Stop "Cutting & Pasting:" Think for Yourselves!
I have yet to see any reputable sources cited on this site. I have already posted numerous statistics which show that pre-Castro Cuba's standard of living was the highest in Latin America and one of the highest in the world. All these are referenced to their sources. I am not, however, an habitue of the cutting and pasting which you and Judi favor, preferring instead to digest what I read and present it in my own words. It is you and Judi who are always regurgitating the same pap. Why not try doing some thinking for yourselves? Of course, as supporters and apologists for Fidel Castro, this may be too much to ask of you.

I have no connection to the Cuban American National Foundation (CANF), which since Mas Canosa's death has moved to the center in the Cuban-American political spectrum. Do you have any connection to the Castro regime? -- I mean a formal connection, not just an adolescent crush.

As for Batista, here's a newsflash: he's dead. His "henchmen," if any are still left, must be centenarians. Stop fighting ghosts. Castro has already ruled three times as long as Batista, thanks, of course, to Batista himself, who spared Castro's life.
