Obama Atones for America’s Sins in Cuba (most embarrassing grovel by the idiot yet alert)
The American Spectator ^ | March 22, 2016 | Paul Kengor

... Trump justly slammed Obama for the Castro slight.

"Wow, President Obama just landed in Cuba, a big deal, and Raul Castro wasn't even there to greet him," Trump tweeted shortly before Obama blithely strolled inside the glorious Havana cathedral that the Castros have controlled for over half a century. "He [Raul] greeted Pope and others. No respect."

It was the best Tweet from the Tweet-master/insult-master in months. No one can sling it like Donald Trump. And he wasn’t finished.

Speaking to an audience in Palm Beach, Trump ratcheted up the criticism: "He landed in Cuba and Raul Castro… who's the head of Cuba, wasn't there to greet him." Trump's acolytes howled loudly as he continued the Obama mockery. "Folks, what are we doing? What are we doing? Here's how a thing like that is supposed to work: Number one, he [Obama] has his people call up and say, 'Who's going to be greeting the president?' If they say nobody, you don't go until somebody’s there. And the head of Cuba, who was there for the pope and he was there for other dignitaries that come in, but he wasn't there for the president of the United States. I mean, we are amateur-hour folks! [more loud laughter]... Obama should have turned the plane around and left."

Trump was spot-on.

[Snip]

Trump, fittingly framed Obama as a dupe and sucker to tyrants.

Of course, Donald Trump is exactly right. But Trump is mistaken if he believes the mockery will teach Obama a lesson. No, Barack has shielded himself from the Donald’s chastisements. ... Barack Obama no doubt judges that America has been in the wrong toward Cuba since 1959.

“Barack Obama no doubt judges that America has been in the wrong toward Cuba since 1959.”

Of course. Studying geopolitics and world history at the university level has to be fairly easy these days. To give the ‘acceptable’ answers to most questions one need only state the anti-American position.

Anybody want the image with Obama and others posing for a photo op with a likeness of mass-murderer Che Guevara looming in the background?

Yeah, SFB not only allowed such a thing, he relished it.

It is scary that after 7 years Obama has a 48.5% approval rating. More Americans approve of his performance than disapprove! What implications does this have for the future of the country? The nation is split 50/50. To paraphrase Lincoln, “A house divided against itself cannot stand”. Or, “A nation cannot exist half free and half slave”.

The Marxist Kenyan apologizing to communist dictators for “the sins of America”. This is “historical”. Obonzo does it all of the time.

Raul didn’t meet him at the airport, but that “limp wrist” moment he had with Obama was ..... (loss for words here) ..... a sight to behold. Oqueer is going to be seeing that picture the rest of his life.

A Day in Infamy - Barack Obama’s Cuban Pact

Canada Free Press ^ | 12/20/14 | Obie Usategui

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/3239237/posts

I consider Obama’s renewed relations with the communist island as one of the most despicable political acts I have ever been a witness to. Inherent evil of Barack Obama and his administration For the most part of the Cuban-American community residing in Miami, Florida, the day of Wednesday, December 17th, 2014, will—more likely than not—go down in their history books as a day in infamy, much the same as did December 7th, 1941, for all Americans. The former, when Barack Obama announced the U.S. restoring full relations with Cuba, including the opening of an embassy in the island—a bold move...

“Just saying, Cuba has never had the heft/ability of the USSR or Communist China to inflict pain on the U.S. or any other country.”

I wonder in what planet you have been living. Inflicting pain is the cornerstone of communism, and the main victim has been the Cuban people.

In October 1961 there were nuclear missiles in Cuba and Castro and the Che pushed Nikita Khrushchev to nuke New York and Washington.

In November 1961 the FBI aborted a Castro’s plan as deadly as 9/11 by detonating on Black Friday after Thanksgiving bombs in New York main department stores and the Central Station.

Denotes supine ignorance to affirm that Cuba never had the ability to inflict pain to any country. Rivers of blood left Che Guevara and his Cuban thugs around Africa in Cuba’s failure campaign to impose communism in that continent. Latin America still suffers the scourge of the communist guerrillas trained and financed by Cuba.

It is beyond believe to think that any American mentally sane could support Obama’s rescue of the Cuban terrorist regime that is at the border of total collapse. Venezuela will not be able to continue maintaining Castro’s regime afloat and Obama wants that the American taxpayers assume the “sugar daddy” responsibility, the same role that previously was played by the Soviet Union and later Venezuela pushing both countries to their bankruptcy. It seems to me that Obama is seeking Castro’s help to reach his goal, the bankruptcy of U.S.

Castro is a very generous man, he will pay for the American companies confiscated by the communist regime with the American taxpayers monies that the magnanimous Obama will donate to the regime.

So you are saying that Cuba has or had as much military capability ... on their own ... as USSR or Communist China? And you ask what planet I live on? What decade are you living in? The world has moved on since 1961. Perchance...you could join the rest of us?

Did the Muslim terrorist need USSR or China military capability to put New York in his knees? The must the world change the more it remains the same. Cuba still has 50 miles from Havana a sophisticate Chinese electronic spy base to intercept every U.S. communication and a beach head for cyber warfare against U.S. Russia is reopening another spy base in the outskirts of Havana. Obama have bended to Castro, but the Castros’ hatred for U.S. has not diminished a bite over half a century.

Unquestionable that Cubans deserve to be free. Their fight for freedom has been long and bloody. More Cubans in the quest for freedom were murdered by the regime right after the triumph of the revolution that Germans killed by Hitler in the first 3 years of Nazi Germany. There were more political prisoners in communist Cuba that during Stalin terror period.

Obama have offered that the American taxpayers will finance unconditionally the Cuban regimen. Raul Castro daughter made it clear that Cuba will remain a close repressive Stalinist regime.

If Cubans were allowed to travel freely, U.S. should be ready to receive 11 million Cubans (Mariel II). But Obama has a brilliant mind; he decided to extend U.S. welfare rolls to the 11 million Cubans on the island at American taxpayers’ expense.

Unfortunately, Obama’s largesse will not go to benefit the enslaved Cuban people, but to grease the repressive apparatus and enrich even more, Fidel Castro, with $900 million wealth, he is one the richest chief state in the world while the Cubans live in abject misery.

Obama is not trying to help the Cuban people but to condemn then to eternal damnation under a Stalinist regime.
