It's sick really.
I've already said that the embargo hasn't worked and we should just lift it all together so I have on problem with that part of it. What they said about the Freedom in Cuba and the praise they heaped on Fidel was just makes my blood boil.
It was quite a moment to behold," Lee said, recalling her moments with Castro.
Yes I'm sure it was, a defining moment right?
“It was almost like listening to an old friend,” said Rep. Bobby Rush (D-Il.), adding that he found Castro’s home to be modest and Castro’s wife to be particularly hospitable.
“In my household I told Castro he is known as the ultimate survivor,” Rush said.
Like listening to an old friend? How many friends does Rush have that imprisons or murders people that dare speak out against them, that steals people's private property, that lives in luxury while the people he represents live in poverty.
Oh wait, never mind you don't have to answer that.
By the way, in my house Castor is not exactly known as "the ultimate survivor" but it's not lady like to say what he's known as here.
Here is an interview with Congress Critter Richardson on her meeting with Fidel.
Love it when she says that she saw freedom in Cuba and that she didn't see dissent. Well that may have to do with the fact that dissent is met with imprisonment at best. And by the way you are seeing what Cuba wants you to see, next time go off the beaten path and see the real Cuba, see where regular people live, what they have to eat, and what hospitals they go to. Oh and for shits and giggles ask them how much money they make in a month (Here's a hint, I couldn't get a tank full of gas).
Think of this too, if things are so great in Cuba, why do Cubans risk their lives, and die, in inner tubes for the chance of getting to the US? When was the last time thousands of Americans risked their lives in inner tubes to get to Cuba?
Once again, Bobby, I'm glad that murderous dictator could endear himself to you with his sense of humor. It's killer!

I'm glad the Congessional Black Caucus went to Cuba. The part that upsets me is that they came back to the USA.
As for meeting and talking with the Castros I mean probably anybody can do it. It's not like they get many visitors. And I heard Rep. Lee brought a Martin Luther King coloring book and box of crayons and Fidel goes apeshit over stuff like that.
Just wait until the Congressional blacks go to Venezuela and meet Hugo Chavez. That should be interesting.
