Bush upset by elections "rigged" by "the Castro brothers"

[Amerigo Vespucci]

President Bush, asked about the news in a public appearance during his trip to Africa, said: "The question really should be what does this mean for the people in Cuba. They are the ones who suffered under Fidel Castro."

Bush said he hoped this would be "the beginning of a democratic transition for the people of Cuba . . . An interesting debate will arise. Some will say let's promote stability. In the meantime, political prisoners will rot . . . This should be a transition to free and fair elections. And I mean free and fair. Not these elections that the Castro brothers rig."

3. Hold on, there is a big difference here

Castro rigged his own elections.
Bush had his rigged for him.

6. I stand corrected...

:rofl:

4. The irony is that the criminal in the White House should keep his

mouth shut. Castro tortured prisoners in Cuba and even killed his own people when they disagreed with him. Bush is doing the same fucking thing in Cuba. Bush's wet dream is to be the dictator of the world? Scalia must have dementia. :dem:

5. Bush is clueless.

Political prisoner--don't go there.

Rigged elections--don't go there.

7. Because we all know the FL recount was fair and that the Supreme Court deciding was democratic.

We would hope that all of Cuba's future elections are run as smoothly as they were in the US in 2000.

:sarcasm:

8. Just. Too. Fucking. Surreal.

10. Does the litte dictatortot know anything about Dr.Freud's projection?

Asking the question is to answer it.
