Seems that the McCain campaign folks never bothered to license the music they were illegally exploiting for free featuring in the videos. Updated and Bumped: They did it again - the second time in two weeks. Apparently copyright laws are among the laws easily ignored by the McCain camp. Third Update: They did it again and now they're being sued.

We are told that Cuba has more doctors per capita than any nation on Earth. Why does Castro go to Spain to see doctors?

OK, it is time to start talking about post-Castro Cuba. When he dies, what will be the US response? What should it be?
Wouldn't it be good if the US already has a quick response planned and ready to go, something about immediately talking about a new policy? Wouldn't it be great if all the Cubans living in the US who want to go back could, and infect the island with a freedom-experienced mindset?

I think we should immediately normalize relations. Obviously the embargo has accomplished nothing and we have a much better chance of winning them over with financial incentives than by continuing to pretend they don't exist. Let Raoul remain as the figurehead but start a program of capitalism from the bottom up.

Whatever we decide to do, let's NOT involve the CIA in any way at any level, mmmkay?
If Cuba ever embraces democracy and capitalism again, it will quickly recover from an economic basket case to the "Jewel of the Caribbean" . . .
To Comrade Fidel: Burn in hell, you filthy murdering jackal! Good riddance!

I just hope that they dress him nicely.
There is no shame in being dead, only in being dressed poorly when you are dead.

We should not normalize relations until Cuba embraces democracy.
It is not obvious that the embargo accomplished nothing. Consider what Cuba could be had there been no embargo. Thanks to our "friends" around the world that colluded with Castro, the embargo was not as effective as it could have been.
Cubans want freedom. Almost all of them are waiting for Castro to die. In recent years, they knew that there was no sense in fighting the police state when Castro was going to die soon anyway. The aftermath of his death will be very interesting.

Oh God please let it be! What a divine irony if Castro kicks from his own shit backing up in him.
Raul is just as evil as Fidel, just more clever. Both will have to go for the island to start to recover from the communist nightmare.

The intestinal disease Fidel Castro is said to he suffering from is usually easy to treat - but if complications develop in an elderly patient it becomes a death sentence. Ironic that Castro should die from the incompetence of the Socialist medical miracle in Cuba. After three bungled operations he was sent to Spain to die a slow, agonizingly painful death (I hope).
