It’s often frightening to see how terrorists use technology against freedom. It’s therefore uplifting and refreshing to see people using technology to advance freedom. The New York Times, which has always been dizzyingly respectful of Castro, has pulled a fast U-turn and written a very good article about young people using technology to [...]

One of the things that puts the Kumbi-ya crowd into an absolute frenzy is President Bush’s refusal to deal directly with murderous dictators. Forgetting the example set by Neville “Peace in Our Time” Chamberlain, this crowd is certain that, if they can just wrest a smile from someone evil, they’ll be halfway to ending [...]

Little things mean a lot, and some Cuban voters in Florida, who might otherwise have been leaning towards Obama, may back off if they get a gander of his fellow travelers — Obama campaigners who are loud and proud in their support for Castro-ite Cuba and Che Guavara. There is no indication at all that [...]

Am I only the who finds it ironic that the longest-lasting [...]

One of my favorite bloggers, Patrick, who cultivates the erudite, amusing and humane Paragraph Farmer, has a beautiful article at American Spectator about Cuba’s past, and Castro’s best efforts to erase that memory from Cuban minds. It’s a lovely read, with Miami Vice, beautiful women, and crocodile tears all mixing in logical harmony.

I don’t know about you, but I’m pretty sure that Fidel Castro is not in some luxury Cuban hospital suite recovering from surgery. If he were, the press would be inundated with pictures of him, propped him in his hospital bed, holding a cigar, and waving to the camera. I see him in a secret [...]

I don't like Andy Garcia as an actor, but I sure do admire him as a human being. He's the moving force behind and star of The Lost City, a movie that highlights to the destruction the revolution brought to Cuba and, more disturbingly for the complacent Left, that points out that Che was [...]
