First Vietnam Redux; Is Bay Of Pigs II Next?

Is he nuts?
Mr Bush said the current Cuban regime, the only one-party communist government in the Americas, would never change its policies.

"The Castro regime will not change by its own choice - but Cuba must change," Mr Bush promised.
Seriously, is Bush freakin' psycho? Why aren't Republicans raising holy hell about this? Their boy is trying to emulate the two worst foreign policy decisions by Democratic presidents in the previous century -- first Lyndon Johnson, and now John F. Kennedy!

Okay, yeah, he's trying to swing the Cuban refugee vote in Florida. But this is the latest exhibit in the case that Bush has absolutely no bloody idea about how to handle international politics. He's got his hand in an angry beehive, so what does he do? He kicks a damn hornet's nest!

There's so much wrong with the Bush administration, it would take five people working full-time to catalog it all. Still, isn't it enough that he's obscenely incompetent?
