Could Cuba be next? It may be a lot easier to get there but it'll be no easier to get home.

Oh they wouldn't do that, right? Don't bet on it. While we've been blowing off Fidel Castro's warnings about U.S. plans to invade his country, George W. Bush has been quitely making plans.



"We believe the people of Cuba should be free from tyranny. We believe the future of Cuba is a future of freedom. It's in our nation's interest that Cuba be free. It's in the neighborhood's interest that Cuba be free. Our strategy is a strategy that encourages the spending of money to help organizations to protect dissidents and to promote human rights. It is a strategy that says we're not waiting for the day of Cuban freedom, we are working for the day of freedom in Cuba."



That's what he said in May as he gleefully accepted a report he'd ordered from the Department of State on how to hasten regime change in Cuba. It's no Plan of Attack, but here's the link to the report:
