Joe Lima, if you weren’t already married, I would kiss you for daring to speak the truth. Of course, you know this means your career in Hollywood will tank and you will be relegated to obscurity- oh wait! What am I saying? You are articulate and intelligent! You can write! You can succeed in spite of the Hollywood left.
Oh, never mind. My bad. I forgot all about the communist in the white house.Oh yeah, I forgot. They call themselves “socialists” these days.
Nevertheless, thanks for a thought provoking piece. Keep them coming.

Andrew — correct.

Toro (Spanish for bull, I believe) is only too typical of the left and their iddy biddy myths.

The Great Depression (1 year under Republican Hoover, 8 years under Democrat Roosevelt.)

Vietnam: Started and expanded by Democras Kennedy and Johnson. Ended by Republican Nixon.

Oh freebie. Clinton WAS impeached. Nixon was not.

Joe,

Did you see this incredible quote from Benicio “Che” Del Toro:

“I remember Che being included in a TV show that showed pictures of terrorists. I was like, ‘Why isn’t (President Richard) Nixon there for the Vietnam war?’ You’d have to put a lot of pictures of other people there before you’d put Che’s.”

Apparently learned scholar Del Toro doesn’t realize that Nixon didn’t start the Vietnam War. That says a lot about his opinions on his buddy Che — who he likens to Batman (maybe he thinks both had youthful wards?).

One more dose of propaganda for the Cuban Robolution (meaning theft), very glad to discover not everybody in the US, ignores the truth about this Mass Murderer, who is revered as a hero. By the way he did not wear a red beret, he used a black one, when are this Hollowood researchers going to be detail oriented. Pity, that talented people lend themselves to participate in this mascarade. Is it that they get very well paid, or is it that or is it that their hearts belong to Daddy Lenin. I am sick and tired of this millionaires who claim to be liberals, as good Communists, they should start be sharing their wealth. It is very easy to live like royalty, without food lines, being able to say and do what they desire, this is what they do not appreciate, why dont they move somewhere else, where they can be happier, I am sure many people would like to trade places with them. I was 15 years old when Ali Baba and his thieves came to power in 1959, all they have done is destroy, what used to be a prosperous and advanced country, (we had color TV since 1957, brought by Gaspar Pumarejo, a pioneer of TV in Cuba), how many countries can boast about that… not many. Hope this movie tanks faster than the Titanic, for what it is worth. Mr Lima I understand and admire your article it is about time somebody faced this idiots with the truth.

Now how would a guy whose family lived in Cuba during the revolution know more about it than Steven Soderbergh?

Using one of Humberto Fontova favorite expressions, Soderbergh & Del Toro are a bunch of “useful idiots”.
Nice read Joe Lima, well done.
