Reply #7: Thanks for those

I italicized the line that presented the erroneous given in the NYT article for emphasis, but this kind of back up is so important. Once quotes that support a lie (misconception, exaggeration, etc) are found in the NYT, the bushies can pull them out to make their convoluted case just like in Iraq.

Bush painted Venezuela with similar charges on the floor of the UN, didn't he? It's almost funny that in making the case this time, they also publicize Cuba's strengths (education and health care) as well as our faults (policies that prevent people from receiving medicine)

I don't have much faith that truth will win against Bush's assault, but it's good to try.

edit- The timing of the NYT piece is interesting, too; Castro announced the oil discovery on Friday.
