What In The World Is SHE THINKING??
...'Communism Is Dead' in Cuba...
Boxer is unhappy with the Bush administration's hard-line policy with Cuba, and she holds a different view after a recent trip to the enslaved island nation.
While admitting that Castro had helped to spread communism, she told her colleagues:

Boxer's travels to communist countries during the Cold War must have been limited.
Even in Mother Russia at the height of the Cold War, the dollar was king. The Russian "communist" government had restaurants and stores that sold goods to foreigners and citizens for "hard currency," usually dollars.
Why? It was one way the communist state filtered hard currency back into its coffers to continue to build its military-police state.
Cuba, of course, continues to follow the same model. And Boxer apparently has taken time to read the State Department report, as well as those of the left-leaning Human Rights Watch and Amnesty International - all of which report that Castro continues to maintain one of the most repressive communist regimes in the world: no human rights, no property rights, no civil rights.
How can she claim a vibrant capitalist economy exists in Cuba?
Someone needs to take her aside and ask her to read the UN Resolutions including Resolution 1441, (bet she was the only Senator who voted against it, that's how different she is). Once she reads the justification, she will realize how foolish she is looking and seek employment in another field.

"This is a pattern here of what I see from you," Boxer said. "It's very troubling. ... It's hard for me to let go of this war because people are still dying."

She said Rice has not acknowledged those deaths, has not laid out an exit strategy for Iraq and has been unwilling to admit mistakes -- including going to war over weapons of mass destruction found later not to exist. (WMD report)

"If you can't admit to this mistake, I hope that you will rethink it," Boxer said.
Quote
Rice: "Senator, we can have this discussion in any way that you would like," Rice replied. "But I really hope that you will refrain from impugning my integrity."
Rice insisted the war in Iraq was not launched solely over WMD. Deposed Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein, she said, welcomed terrorists, attacked his own neighbors and paid suicide bombers in the conflict between Israel and Palestinians.
