So how tempted do you think Bush is to hit Cuba today?
Supposedly a summit with Chavez, Castro, Ahmadinejad and Kim Jong-Il is happening there today.

I wonder how bad his trigger finger is to not just all out bomb them just because he is a war monger... and I also imagine the response to such.

1. They're all there? I though that al Maliki was in Iran with
Ahmadinejad.

2. Honestly there would be a smile on my face.
Bush would have done something right for a change.

4. I guess it would be tough nuts...
for the thousands of innocent Cubans who might get in the way, not to mention all of the people in Florida who were affected by the fallout.

12. There is a difference in meeting someone & supporting someone.
I knew I would be taken to the wood shed for my comment, but hey it wouldn't be the first time & it damn sure won't be the last.

15. I don't support China do you?
Bush does, but then again I don't support him either. IMO Bush is also part of the axis of evil.

18. Cuba hasn't threatened this country
But I guess that's the way some people want things run, attack people who have done nothing to this country.

20. What exactly has Cuba been doing to you?
Apart from supplying south Florida with large numbers of total lunatics. And that's more from US policy than Cuban policy.

3. ..
Can he resist the temptation to push the button that, even now, beckons him even closer? Will he succumb to the maddening urge to eradicate history? At the MERE...PUSH...of a SINGLE...BUTTON! The beeyootiful SHINY button! The jolly CANDY-LIKE button! Will he hold out, folks? CAN he hold out?

7. So...
In other words, it's the "Nutjobs of the World With Too Much Power and Not Enough Sense" summit? Bush should be there with his compatriots, plotting how best to ruin the lives of normal citizens the world over.

17. Nutjobs? I give you that on the North Korean leader, since I don't
know that much about him, but Castro and Chavez do not seem to fall in that category. We should be so lucky to have someone like Chavez who cares about the poor running our country.

22. Well, let's call a spade a spade.....
There is nothing particularly redeeming about any of those rulers.

I do envy Chavez, Ahmadinejad and Kim Jong-Il though...Cuba is a lovely place to visit, but that's only because you know you can leave.
