What Dickey and his liberal minions never want to talk about is how when communist Russia tried to establish nuclear bombs in Cuba, JFK put an end to that. When Communist Russia tried to establish communism in South America, congress voted to fund a war to stop the spread of this evil, and then after starting this war, took away the funding abandoning those folks to fight Russia on their own. Dickey is a staunch communist as his repugnant op-ed letters are forever championing communism.
