"Crypto-libertarian"? Anarchist, please, Doug.
I defended what I think is defensible in Cuba. There's a lot there I find indefensible, even within the context of "national security." But I do find Cuba's health care system, and its policy of sending doctors throughout the developing world, admirable.
