Liberals and Cuba

The New McArthyism Stems from Hollywood

I love these parts.

"raving about what a great country Cuba was, compared with the U.S.: better health care, lower infant mortality, and the music!!! Plus, Fidel, Che, and the revolutionaries"
To put it mildly, the look on their faces was one of disbelief. In response to comments about health-care and infant-mortality statistics, the wife said, "And you believe the information coming out of the Castro government? They make those numbers up to look good to other countries."
...
"The liberals at that party are exactly like those Hollywood elites we are always talking about here. The "free healthcare, 100% literacy and low infant mortality rate" spewing myopics who cannot stand Cuban-Americans because we actually know what the hell we are talking about when it comes to Cuba and it bursts their little moral superiority bubble."

And nobody points out that "universal health care" in Cuba doesn't mean "free medicine and surgery," or even "actual medicine and surgery." Amputations, maybe some leeches... You get the idea.
