What about it? When have I ever denied Castro is a Communist? His early life is shadowy (unlike Ché Gueverra, about whom we know a fair bit), but for the sake of argument let's agree that he was christened a Communist while a babe in arms. What difference does that make to the point I've been trying to make that it was US meddling that paved the way to his rise to power? I've been to Cuba, for crying out loud -- I know what kind of a dismal place it is.
