Speaking of Cuba …

Jay Nordlinger in his Impromptus column deals with the island in some details and quotes Christopher Sabatini making a point I’ve been arguing myself:

In what other country in the hemisphere would it be considered a crime for a foreigner to give out a cell phone, laptop, or any other modern tool of communication? Brazil? Argentina? Mexico? Venezuela? Of course not. In fact, Americans passing out free cell phones and computers in those countries are called, appropriately, humanitarians. Let’s be clear: The Castro regime is isolating its citizens from not just news and information, but from modernity.

This is the reality, journalists ignoring this are disgracing their profession.

Or they might just be following the guidelines established by Atlanta progressive news.

If you want to get me angry in a hurry…

…let the left go on about how freedom is restricted in America, how they were repressed under George W. Bush while in Cuba:

Right now there’s a Cuban Mom in Cuba whom Ive also never met in person but I still consider a Mom who had her son die in one of the regime’s prisons simply because he wanted to be a free man.

Let’s elaborate further:

RTVE reports that there have been at least 25 arrests and/or detentions following the death of Tamayo Zapata for the purpose of preventing their attendance to his funeral.

Let’s be blunt: These people are murderous bastards, the people in congress and Hollywood are supporting them are supporting murderous bastards. The people who are gung ho about closing Gitmo while ready to embrace the actual concentration camp that is the rest of the island are at best ignorant and at worst complicit in the support of murderous bastards.

If you want to know the difference between America and Cuba in real life here it is. If you want to see the difference between a democratic administration and a republican one here it is.

And this little story is enough to make you want to punch the screen.

The elite’s treatment of the Gulag that is Cuba is like watching Kitty Genovese get murdered over and over again.

Concerning Sen Bayh the media should remember this…

…if it wasn’t for the constant cheerleading for candidate Obama, and their willing suspension of disbelief concerning Obamacare etc, the president might not have gone so far out on a limb to enact such foolish legislation.

If the media was more moderate in its presentation and the congress more moderate in its attempts to make law the overreaching and arrogance of this administration would have been avoided, the “reporting” concerning the teapartiers didn’t help either.

So ye of the administration and the left wing media if you want to know who is to blame for Sen Bayh’s departure buy a mirror.

Right now Linda McMahon is on Morning Joe…

She is a candidate for the Senate in Connecticut and is spending her morning being attacked by Lawrence O’Donnell mercilessly over the WWE and steroids and over the new jobs bill. To anyone who knows Lawrence O’Donnell this is not any kind of surprise

Her opponent Richard Blumenthal will be coming on shortly. No word if there will be a republican attack dog available to question him. (HA!)

Richard Blumenthal is now on, like McMahon he is supporting tax cuts for small business. Joe askes him about Countrywide and Chris Dodd and Lawrence is jumping in to defend Dodd. Everyone is all laughs. Donny Deutsch asks a really good question about separating himself from the democratic party. Now comes the soft balls.
