" You're the one arguing that we should prostitute our principles of supporting liberty and democracy," No; I'm saying we do; China is a good example. We shouldn't; we should be consistent. Either both are ok, or both are bad. " Is what Castro created for Cuba, better or worse, than Cuba under Batista?" Who knows; we've had them under an embargo so long that we have more of an effect on Cuba than any leader they might have. Hard to function when you haven't got oil. Why don't we stop it, and then find out if they think they are better off? "Who are YOU whoring out your principles to?" Hopefully, nobody. I try to stick with mine. That's why I work in my hospitals, instead of driving a truck in Iraq. Rat
