[Philosoraptor]

Just announced on cnn, bush issues statement offering aid and democracy to the Cuban people if they want it.

How wonderful of him! I'm sure Cuba will want bush's Iraq style democracy real soon.

SEND MONEY GUNS AND CONDI, DEMOCRACY'S HIT THE FAN!

[ceile]

1. That man is such a pompous ASS!

"I'm the decider and I've decided to bring you democracy-whether you like it or not"

[Union Thug]

2. Wow, that means cluster bombs and death, and crony capitalism,

and corporate dictatorships..

Geez, sounds great, George.

[Nikki Stone 1]

3. How about we get democracy here first?

..

[Philosoraptor]

5. Maybe no one's asked for it lately.

[Nikki Stone 1]

27. A lot of people are asking for it, especially in regard to Diebold

We're just being ignored

[WCGreen]

Hey, Jorge....

How's 'bout a little of the democracy in this joint first....

[malaise]

4. Charity should begin at home. n/t

[ananda]

6. Oh

I thought this was going to be one of those Onion jokes.

Sheesh.

[Metta]

7. Trojan horse? Like the scorpion, his nature is to sting.

He isn't offering democracy to us here at home. Malcolm X said that the white man either wanted to do something to him or take something from him. ... 'nuff said.

[npincus]

8. Democracy spreads like jam and jelly

dontcha know?

[CrispyQ]

9. I saw this bumper sticker just today:

Be nice to America
or we'll bring democracy to your country!

[npincus]

13. LOL- I want one!

[longship]

10. Castro isn't yet dead and may recover.

He's gonna be pissed about this!!

[LSparkle]

11. I pray I get to see Cuba before Shrub wrecks it ...

I've always wanted to go there and now I'm afraid it'll be turned into CubaDisneyland before I get to visit....

[Javaman]

12. Morons* concept of democracy ain't worth crap. nt

[rubberducky]

14. Oh, god , say it ain`t so.

More death and destruction, murder and mahem. Then they can call in Halliburton to repair all the damage they do.

[Jacobin]

15. Oliphant NAILS it here:

[Island Blue]

16. Will Cuba now become the new Grenada?

Will the * administration attack it - I mean "spread Democracy to it" (my bad) - in an effort to divert our attention away from the cluster-fuck (of our making) that is the Middle East? Stranger things have happened.

[graywarrior]

17. Somehow, this reeks of vote trolling.

Republicans only do things for three reasons: votes, money & power.

[Skidmore]

18. * wouldn't recognize democracy if it bit him in the butt and

slapped him upside his pinhead. He's the last person on the earth who should be talking about the concept of democracy. Doesn't practice it here.

[whistle]

19. Will he be using the Iraq model?

[man4allcats]

20. Oh God! Hold on to your ass, Cuba!

This can't be good.

[Jara sang]

21. Democracy in Cuba >>> Casino = House of Rep.; Mob = Representatives.

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

22. Is he offering them the remnants of ours?

You know, the smidgeons still not completely owned by the corporations?

Going, going, GONE!

Too late.

[Philosoraptor]

23. Send money, guns & Condi, Democracy's hit the fan

[LSparkle]

25. LOL!

I keep seeing that scene from "Godfather" where they're serving the cake in the shape of Cuba. ("Here, have another piece of Cuba.")

[Philosoraptor]

24. Calling Hyman Roth from Godfather Two!

[WI_DEM]

26. Cuba to SHRUB: "If it's the kind of democracy you're providing in Iraq

FORGET IT!!"

[gulliver]

28. Bush and the GOP have really hurt the image of democracy.

He and his idiot followers can't even criticize Cuba without the entire rest of the world snickering. It is a damned shame. Republicans brought us shame and are proven idiots. Don't you agree, Philosoraptor?

[Philosoraptor]

29. Putin cracked everybody up regarding bush's version of democracy

Deathocracy is what we offer.

[gulliver]

32. I'm not a fan of Putin like Bush was. Bush and the GOP are idiots.

Wouldn't you agree? If even Putin can make a laughingstock of Bush on the world stage, doesn't that make Bush and the GOP idiots? I'm really interested in your stand on that question.

[Philosoraptor]

33. Perhaps Leno, Letterman, Stewart, Colbert & Maher will tell us.

President bush offered democracy to Cuba today, and Cuba said, "Thanks, but we think we'll just stick with the late Fidel Castro".

The entire nation of Cuba was totally abandoned today after President bush offered to help out with some democracy.

[gulliver]

35. But about the Bush and the GOP being idiots question...

Bush (or "President bush" as you call him) and the GOP humiliated democracy and our country. Doesn't that make Bush and the GOP idiots? I really want to know what you think on that question.

[Philosoraptor]

36. yes, they've hijacked the word democracy.

and they are idiots who write lofty speeches with lofty words like democracy, but they've changed the meaning of almost all words, and millions of idiots fell for it.

We're turning the corner, freedom is on the march, the world is safer, these are all gag lines now.

The founding fathers would be pissed that they'd have to start all over again.

[gulliver]

39. Well, but they are not idiots for writing and talking about democracy.

Right? They (Bush and the GOP) are idiots for humiliating democracy and America in the eyes of the world by their actions, over and over. Right?

The question of whether they are also bunko artists or hypocrits is completely separate. I'm wondering whether you agree that Bush and the GOP are proven idiots based strictly on the actions they have taken while in power and the results we now see before us. Do you agree with that?

[Philosoraptor]

40. Hell yes, it'll take decades to fix this crap.

Democracy now means Roman assimilation. There's democracy the concept, and new American democracy, they've disgraced us forever, and done everything possible to destroy democracy.

They've permanently shamed us forever in the history books.

But, it will get worse.

[Blaze Diem]

30. YA, Thats What He Offered to Iraq Also....

Look how that's turned out.
Bush should just keep his hands off EVERYTHING . Everything he touches turns to war, destruction, & death.

[manic expression]

31. What a fascist little bastard

no one wants his imperialistic feudalism except him and his cronies.

[sutz12]

34. Have all the Democracy you want.

Just don't elect the wrong guy, or you'll be sorry.

[LSK]

37. Great, now they can have an election

The NeoCons will not like the results and then will do everything they can to undermine it.

Havnt we seen that before?

[Philosoraptor]

38. Guantanmo Island?

Let's just make it our terrorist penal colony. Imperialist Devil's Island.

[Crunchy Frog]

41. Iraqi democracy on sale at huge discount.

Massive liquidation sale. Get it while you can.

[Philosoraptor]

42. Slightly used Democracy, low mileage, Drive it home today!
