Emanuel gets heated when Cuba travel plans revealed
Politico (via Drudge) ^ | 12/2/2015 | Nick Gass

“We were saying backstage that you want to come back as an Emanuel child. You take your young people on fascinating trips around the world, headed these holidays to Cuba. Why?” POLITICO's senior White House correspondent asked.

Emanuel bristled, responding, “Well, first of all, thanks for telling everybody what I’m going to do with my family."

"You had a private conversation with me and now you decide to make that public. I really don’t appreciate that, for one, I really don’t," the mayor scolded

And yes, this year, if my wife doesn’t kill me now because of what you just did,

We can only hope.

If there is money to be made in Cuba, politicians will head down there.

Al Capone’s mad because Allen spilled the beans on him. He’s probably really going to Cuba to negotiate some corrupt deal with some of Castro’s grubby goons, now that Obama lifted the sanctions.

I would go to Cuba.

It would nice to see how all those Yuan I paid in taxes (some of which went as foreign aide to Cuba)while living in China were put to work.

The Hemingway house would be cool to visit and I could cheese off some anti-American Canadian tourist.

Not anymore, it seems. He should worry about his own state instead of seeking “business opportunities” with the enemy and claiming they’re “expanding their private sector”.

He can help some Texas oil companies go to Cuba and drill for $40 oil.

Also, Texas rice farmers want Cuba as a market.

Louisiana sugar producers want in there too.

That’s nice. More rope for the “capitalist pigs” to hang themselves with. We should be going in there to do business, but as victorious conquerors instead of crawling in under Obama’s non-diplomacy.

It appears Mayor DeadFish has a short fuse. As well as a big chip on his shoulder. Or maybe he just has his tu-tu wrapped too tightly.

Yep, Penny Pritzker, of the insanely wealthy Pritzker real estate family of tenement Chicago and other areas in the US and Switzerland-— she went there to “investigate”. Most likely untitled land (that is owned by Cubans in the US) to seize and build a hotel on.

Jimmah Buffett went down and played for the “Marines” at GTMO— a highly unusual “booking” for the erstwhile Hemingway/NOT!

Overall, would say the cocaine mob is gearing up for more business and it’s back to the 70’s.

Hi listened to Michael Moore and is taking advantage of Cuba’s excellent health care system. Perhaps a little nip and tuck surgery for him and the wife.

He’s such an insufferable little p*ick. With his little girly smirk to boot.

Is he planning to defect to avoid impeachment and criminal charges?

Don’t think they want another “ballerina” down there. Couldn’t equal the one who passed away, Fontana?

Besides, he looks like crap in a TuTu, the poor little cupcake.

One can only hope— their rate of sepsis post surgical is quite high. Bastard die of on infection due to his fat ass.
