Happy 90th birthday Fidel

[flamingdem]

55. Don't play into the media obsession with Fidel that hides the culpability of US policy

for the past two centuries.

Manifest Destiny forward has lead to domination of most of the countries in this hemisphere. At least Fidel said no and the US could have worked it out but pride and greed and entitlement won.. sadly Democrats are guilty here as well, it's not just the Republicans who support imperialism.

When you attack Fidel remember at least that Cuban doctors have saved the lives of millions around the planet. Even Obama acknowledged this fact. More than half of Cuban doctors are female and they train US students from impoverished areas. Maybe we could stand to take some lessons too.
