Castro's response to Obama's speech. Obama looses points for this one.
"Throughout my entire life, there has been injustice and repression in Cuba. Never, in my lifetime, have the people of Cuba known freedom. Never, in the lives of two generations of Cubans, have the people of Cuba known democracy. (...) This is the terrible and tragic status quo that we have known for half a century - of elections that are anything but free or fair (...) I won't stand for this injustice, you won't stand for this injustice, and together we will stand up for freedom in Cuba," he told annexationists, adding: "It's time to let Cuban American money make their families less dependent upon the Castro regime.

Trefoilknot | Shared With: Everyone - May 15 2008 | the, politics, philosophySince I never got around to reading this book I thought the review was pretty solid. Although I am not compelled to read the $110 book, just to hear what seemed to me a totally obvious thesis in the first place: Derrida takes us to the double-bind aporia, Badiou supplements this political undecidability with "the evental intervention, or decision" so we can have a politics of truth.
Gotta be the new game in town: supplement so and so's weak ass politics with Badiou's decisionism.
Levinas with Badiou (Critchley)
Derrida with the Stieg's technics
and now Derrida with Badiou (Calcagno)I still think that any pre-LM account of Badious politics has so many pot holes its not even funny. In so far as politics has a logics of appearance you just cant do much of shit politically with EE but supplement deconstruction with a vague ontological "decision" of some kind.
(please excuse the poopy-snark of this dot. I am sure the book is an interesting read.)
