A country everybody (especially Europeans) think is South-American, but is actually North-American. Dictator Fidel Castro is ruling here, brougth to power by Argentinian Che Guevara and his cool anti-capitalism communist guerilla-dudes gang. Beautiful country with the best healthcare and sports-funding of the world. No freedom of speech.
Ignorant outsider: I like the Cuban Che Guevara who fought against Fidel in South America back in the seventies.
Telling that Che Guevara was the minister of Economic Affairs in Cuba souns a lot more boring than that he won a war with 100 men against a government with an army of 150.000.

The North American Country, once ran by the (US backed) Batista Dictatorship. Revolutionized in the 1950's by Fidel Castro and other such communists. Is now run by Castro. It is not a Dictatorship, and not close to fascist. It is a lose socialist democracy. Free Healthcare, and schooling, as well as shelter is provided by the state. It has suffered as a US embargo cuts off most trade with the outside world.Currently still in revolution moving towards communism through socialism.
Castro has not betrayed Che Guevara, and stays on the course towards communism.

Nickname women give to a sorry ass husband who is more interested in collecting his wife's paycheck than making her happy. Cuba as in Cuba Gooding Jr., as in "SHOW ME THE MONEY!!!!"
Girl, as soon as I got home from work, there was Cuba with his hand out, wanting my paycheck so he could go blow it on crap for himself.

but Cuba is an auto-transcribed closed caption which appears when the "Leo Laporte Blows up at Mike Arrington on the Gillmor Gang" video is played with "Transcribe Audio" turned on. The "but Cuba" caption appears when Leo says, "Fuck you guys!"
The phrase was discovered during the NSFW episode titled "But Cuba". The phrase was such a hit that there was no question that it would be the title of the episode.
Leo had heard the phrase, but did not know the origin. He was fully briefed about the origin of "but Cuba" during The Trials of King Leo and has since begun using the phrase himself.
Reported Appearances
But Cuba, the original episode of NSFW in which it appeared.
Tom Merritt slipped a "but Cuba" into his final episode of Buzz Out Loud.
The Trials of King Leo, in which the origin of the phrase is explained to Leo Laporte.
Numerous other NSFW episodes after the "But Cuba" episode.

A Communist country to the south of Florida. It revolted from Spanish control and after a mysterious explosion of a US warship in the harbour had the US come in and claim credit for the liberation of Cuba, though all that had remained in Spanish control before the US intevined was the City of Havana. Cuba was colonized and several severe dictatorships followed culminating with General Batista's. Eventually a revolution took place led by Fidel Castro, Ernesto "Che" Guevara and Camilo Cienfuegos. After several years of intense fighting the revolution succeded in toppling Batista. As a basic step towards Socialism, Casto's goal, all companies were nationalized. This earned the rath of the US which after failed negotiations imposed a blockade, which is technically still illegal because Cuba never attacked the US. In addition the US began a campain that continues to this day of attempting to kill Castro. One of their more hanous acts was the Peter Pan operation which scared the Cuban public with threats of Castro's drafting of youth and a plead to send the Children to the US allowing parents to follow afterwards. After the children arrived the embargo began and many children never again saw their parents. The ilprepared foster care system put them into homes without time to do a decent backround check. This led to many horrible situations such as serial pedoohiles taking in multiple Cuban children. Castro survives to this day and, despite the US' attemps to overthrow him, has garnerd the support of much of the population. Among the succeses of the revolution are universal healthcare, a lower infant mortality rate than the US and a higher literacy rate than the US.

The cuba is a result of wearing any type of shorts that are so tight that they disappear between the butt-cheeks. This display of the lower butt-cheeks is the cuba, which also can be visualized as a reverse-terry.
The term is named after the Cuban women's indoor volleyball team.
