"We are like a living museum here."


This weekend marked the 50th anniversary of the failed Bay of Pigs mission. But who are the real victors?  For Castro, Bay of Pigs is a perfect example of winning the battle but not the war. He successful staved off American efforts to squash his revolution, however his people have suffered tremendously. And what about us? What kind of commentary is it on our government to say we've held a grudge for political decisions made half a century ago? I can only hope both governments will eventually, at the never least, agree to disagree because ultimately we the people are the ones who feel the pain in the end.
