Reply #32: Glad to wait for that ample proof you have concerning Cuba's support of terrorism.

[Judi Lynn]

Your obsession with branding people as "communist apologists" is not acceptible. It's a dodge when you can't back up your smears.

Wake the hell up. McCarthy tactics were discredited decades ago.

You should realize D.U. discourages the practise of "red-baiting." That's a direct personal attack, and stupid, as well.

Completely refrain from personal attacks. D.U. rules.

Stick to the actual subject matter.

Provide those links to Cuban support of terrorism.

Here's a very good example of posting a link of terrorist acts. These are acts by Cuban AMERICAN terrorists against Cuba and Cubans, posted by DU'er "grasswire" in "madfloridian's" thread, in "Political Videos:"

Clinton pardoned an accused tax cheat, but Poppy Bush set a serial terrorist free

By Eileen Smith March 1, 2001—

In 1990, through the direct influence of President George Herbert Walker Bush, Orlando Bosch—fugitive from justice, undocumented alien, serial terrorist and airline bomber—was released from prison in Miami, at the urging of Bush’s son Jeb on behalf of Miami Republicans.

Jeb (the family Florida fixer) traded the unusual release from federal custody for the votes of Floridians and delivered Florida to his father’s electoral tally in the 1992 presidential election.

Orlando Bosch was not released because he was rehabilitated and repentant. He was not released because he had served out a sentence. He was set free by the Bushes for Republican gain with seeming disregard for public safety here and abroad and for the “Rule of Law.”

Thirty countries had refused Bosch asylum because of his criminality. An acting attorney general in Miami and the INS had refused to allow him to remain in the U.S. In January 1989 the acting attorney general wrote: “For 30 years Bosch has been resolute and unwavering in his advocacy of terrorist violence. . . . He has repeatedly expressed and demonstrated a willingness to cause indiscriminate injury and death.’“ Attorney General Dick Thornburgh described Bosch as an “unreformed terrorist.”

And yet the Bushes set him free.

Even more troubling than the release of a dangerous man in exchange for votes is the manner of adjudication. President Bush did not pardon Bosch. He apparently simply stepped in and exerted the influence of his office to release Bosch against the recommendations of the district director of the INS and the Department of Justice.

This was no penny ante lawbreaker. Not just a tax cheat or draft dodger. Bosch planned, participated in, or managed the following crimes:
