Barack Obama apologized to Cuban president Raul Castro during their phone conversation after the American commander in chief's opening remarks. Speaking to reporters at his final White House press briefing of 2014 Friday afternoon, Obama gave more details about his phone call with the communist leader of Cuba earlier this week before the announcement of a change in U.S. policy on the Caribbean island nation.

Obama began the phone call with Castro with what he described as 15 minutes of opening comments. It was the first conversation between the heads of state in both countries since 1961.

I actually feel sorry for Castro, having to listen to Obama speak for 15 minutes.

What I want to know, is why won’t Obama apologize to ME (and a whole lot of other FReepers) for f’ing up our country? He’ll bend over for anyone else.

Sounds like Obama is now heading up the FAIR PLAY FOR CUBA group.

Oswald is laughing in his grave.

Supporting terrorists and torturers, it’s who Bammy is (rather than who FineStein claims)....

When has Obama apologized to us poor Americans for his long winded speeches? At least we have the option of switching the channel.

They threaten to ACTUALLY USE nukes against the US, and Obola is the one apologizing.

Where’s our apology?

When are we getting our apology for his wrecking the place?

Every stupid lame duck move you make brings Cruz closer to the presidency in 2016.

I actually heard a Canadian say that she was disappointed that they’d have to share their vacation haven with Americans now. Everybody just loves us, don’t they.

What! Just what did he apologize for?? Clintons paid millions and took 7-8 ships over to N. Vietnam and lowered ‘old glory’ to the ‘communist flag of N. Vietnam’ and apologized for the Vietnam was. What a bunch of woos’s.

Why would we be apologizing to dictators and murderers. The only apology that would be acceptable it that we didn’t actually bomb them to hell for the Americans they killed.

Now let me get this right, these are the people who are okay with the blacks killing whites because Jesus is black, and white cops are the enemy?

We apologized to Muslims, I don’t get the apology tours!

I’m still waiting for John Kerry to apologize for the lies he told during Vietnam!

When is Obama going to do a reverse Mariel boat-lift exodus BACK to Cuba?

Beginning with himself?

He really thinks that the USA has done everything wrong, and he is the savior of the world and will set everything right.

He hates this country and everything and everyone in it, except people like jesse jackson, al sharpton, reveren wright, louis farrakan and bill ayers.

F**k a bunch of Canadians and their frozen cultural wasteland of a third-rate country.
