Why is it that the US can demand that Myanmar's military dictatorship and Cuba's new leadership hold elections when Bush supports Musharrif's military dictatorship of Pakistan, the repressive gov'ts of the former Soviet Central Asia, and the murderous regime of Saudi Arabia? Not to mention the American track record of close dealings with oppressive, unelected dictatorships such as South Korea, South Vietnam and Chile. Why can't the US be more consistant and stop compromising morals for immediate gains in resources and military base rights?

Judging by the answers that I read in response to your perfectly valid question because there are still lots of red necks with undeveloped consciences around that allow the government to get away with its oppressive foreign and domestic policies.

Because the US will not stop the flow of $ and oil resources into it from its fascist allies. Shame on you for suggesting that. You will be charged with sanctions now for critiquing US foreign policy.

People like you will try to enter my country illegally and demand rights that are not for you. What part of this planet are you from? Should we target you next?

We don't demand anything of other governments. Especially Cuba. You don't like America.....we get that loud and clear. But don't bore us to death with your tripe.
