No wonder Biden is terrified to go on his show
/Chris Wallace asks Karen Bass of her 2016 praise of Castro, “shouldn’t you have known by then?”
“The passing of the Comandante En Jefe is a great loss to the people of Cuba,” Bass wrote in November 2016 after Castro’s death.
During Bass’ Sunday morning appearance on “Fox News Sunday,” Wallace noted that the California congresswoman has “taken heat” for the statement and likely should “have known” that Castro was unworthy of praise.
“What many people may not know is that in fact, you visited Cuba eight times during the 1970s,” he said. “What was it about Castro and Cuba that you found so appealing at that time and do you now regret your involvement and considerable time spent in a communist dictatorship?”
….“You make it sound as if this was just — when you were young and irresponsible, you were young and irresponsible. You put out that message about Castro’s death six years — four years ago in 2016. Shouldn’t you have known by then that Castro’s death was not a great loss to the Cuban people?”
The lady not only claims that she only recently learned of Castro’s “brutality”, she says that she only recently learned that Scientology has some problems.
Bass reminds me of the white college grads whining that no one ever told them that Indians were shoved aside by a technologically-superior culture to make room for the rest of us, or that George Washington owned slaves. What, besides smoking dope, were they doing during their time in school? And was their intellectual curiosity so dim that they did no independent reading?
Guess not.
