As Carlos Eire concluded in his post on the DNC Cuba platform, the party remains firmly in solidarity with Castrolandia. There's no mention of a dictatorship, and there's no mention of political prisoners or the lack of freedom. Well platform this DNC, your policy is a failure. The continuing increase in the number of political arrests and the record number of Cubans trying to escape the Cuban state show just how well "the people" are doing.

More "reform" you can't believe in.
