Almost paradoxically, the deeper one delves into to Cuban political history, the more lessons one can glean in terms of US politics especially�in terms of the American Right-Wing.
Take for instance a recent blog post by Cuban dissident blogger Yoani Sanchez.

The top conservative activist on the powerful Texas Board of Education, who rejects evolution and has pushed a revisionist right-wing U.S. history curriculum, is on the way out, after a moderate candidate defeated him in a tight GOP primary last week.
Thomas Ratliff edged out Don McLeroy 50.4%-49.6% for the seat McLeroy has held since 1999.
2009 began with the inauguration of our new and first African American President, Barack Obama, and became the year that GOP and the Extreme Right Wing of the party became energized and very proactive in its goal to be destructive to our new President and his administration and policies by any means.

I've been watching the news for the last few days (or maybe the last week) and frankly the fact that any intelligent idea actually gets out and discussed in the national media seems far-fetched and impossible.
According to right wing talkers/news outlets, Obama is a socialist and that's bad. Unfortunately, the real socialists are the Republicans.
