Sandinista Lisa

After appointment to her $300K Administrative Bloat position at one of our two state-funded medical schools in Spokane, Lisa Brown joined a “fact finding” trip to Cuba. From stateofreform.com: “What motivated your participation in this trip to Cuba?” Lisa’s answer: “The health care focused nature of the trip, especially the chance to learn more about Cuba’s neighborhood based primary care system since we’re opening a community based medical school here at WSU in Spokane.”

There are four things to “learn” about the Cuban health care system.

1. When Fidel needed good medical care, he imported a Spanish doctor or went to Spain.

2. Cuba is a prison. What works there is not appropriate here

3. Cuba is a communist dictatorship. Their statistics on infant mortality and anything else are self-serving lies.

4. A doctor in Cuba can make more moonlighting as a prostitute in a tourist hotel.

The KGB used to call people blinded by their left-wing preconceptions “useful idiots.” Lisa earned her nickname “Sandinista Lisa” in 1990 as a volunteer supporting the Sandinista government.

We don’t have a good choice, but we do have a clear choice. I’ll have to vote for Cathy again
