Why on earth would Paul support Obama on this. Obama way out on a limb and Paul is helping obama.
I would also add, why does Rubio support illegal imigration? It is the same Marxist vector of adulterous relationship with thugs in Cuba.
The GOP has no strategy, no focus and no consistency, and they never drive the rhetoric, they get influenced.
As crazy as the democrats are, they know their nuttiness.
Easy....just to be different. He’s no difference from McCain and Graham on this - building a career slamming NOT DEMOCRATS, but Republicans.
When was the last time Paul said anything negative about a Democrat, an institutional liberal, academia nut or Jurassic media drone?????? For the life of me, I can’t remember.
“Why on earth would Paul support Obama on this.”
I have no clue...but I bet it costs Paul a lot of future support.
I like what Rubio has been saying, but his recent foray into the illegal immigration “inclusiveness” debate ended any warm fuzzies I had for him.
Rand Paul approves Obama’s policy supporting torture in Cuba
The embargo was not a failure. U.S. is Cuba’s bigger trader of food and medicine. Thanks to the embargo everything Cuba buys from US is being paid on advance, those over l40 countries world wide who sold Cuba merchandise on credit were never paid for their goods.
It seems that Obama, and those who oppose the embargo, want to add 11 million Cubans in the Island to U.S. welfare rolls. Castro will bankrupt U.S. as he bankrupted the Soviet Union.
AMERICANS BEWARE!
Pope Francis concocted Obama’s unconditional surrender to Cuba Stalinist regime. Francis have kept silent while the Cuban communists murder, torture, and violates the human rights in the island prison, and deft to Cuban people plight for freedom.
Behind Obama’s unconditional surrender to the Castro’s brothers, is the plot to make the American taxpayers liable for whatever the American companies sell to Cuba. The end of the embargo is their goal. “Because of something called the Export-Import Bank there’s no risk whatsoever in exporting to bankrupt, murderous and kleptocratic regimes- worse there’ no incentive for the kleptocrats to clean up their act, as would happen under a genuine free-market. Also the World, financed 80% by the American taxpayers will open their vaults to be freely looted by the Castro brothers.”
Castro helped to bankrupt the Soviet Union, Obama before leaving want to complete the destruction of United States.
In the commercial and political relations of the Cuban regime and the U.S. there are several priorities to be concerned with.
Cuba has defaulted in all his international financial deals and Castro encourages other Third World nations to follow his example. Why are we going to sell to someone without the expectation to ever be pay. The American taxpayers should be aware that they are the targets of the scam by which the multinationals sell to Castro whatever he needs and we, the taxpayers, end footing the bill. Castro for 42 years has been with commercial ties with over 150 nations. Now when he has exhausted the patience of nations fool enough to have given him credit, Castro’s puppets in the media, the congress in cahoots with some greedy commercial circles are trying that the American taxpayers shoulder the heavy burden of subsidizing his regime to the tune of 9 billion dollars.
From Humberto Fontova
Every atom of evidence shows that the actual people of Cuba actually want U.S. sanctions against the Stalinist regime that tortures them tightened. So perhaps President Obama should stop insulting the intelligence of Cuba-watchers by claiming to speak and act on their behalf. Here’s their reaction to this week’s early Christmas gift from Obama to the Stalinist dictator who tortures them:
“Sadly, President Obama made the wrong decision. The freedom and democracy of the Cuban people will not be achieved through these benefits that he’s giving — not to the Cuban people — but to the Cuban government. The Cuban government will only take advantage to strengthen its repressive machinery, to repress civil society, its people and remain in power.” (Berta Soler, leader of The Ladies in White, Cuba’s biggest dissident group.)
“[Alan Gross] was not arrested for what he did, but for what could be gained from his arrest. He was simply bait and they were aware of it from the beginning... Castroism has won,” (Yoani Sanchez, Cuba’s most internationally famous dissident.)
“I feel as though I have been abandoned on the battlefield.” (Dr. Oscar Elias Biscet, former Cuban political prisoner awarded the U.S. Presidential Medal of Freedom by President Bush.)
>b>The list of back-stabbed and outraged Cuban dissidents is much, much longer.
At any rate, Cuba’s post-Soviet sugar-daddy (Venezuela) is currently in dire economic straits from the precipitous plunge in the price of oil, Venezuela’s top export. Their economic lifeline to the Castro regime looks shaky, hence the: “here I come to save the day!” by President Obama.
But let’s face it. Castro’s Stalinist regime has jailed, tortured and murdered tens of thousands (including some U.S. citizens) for over half a decade and most Americans don’t seem to give a flying flip. Fine. So let’s consult yet another Cuban dissident who actually serves up some red meat. Let’s notify Joe Sixpack and Soccer Mom (who quite understandably find all this human-rights stuff regarding a foreign country utterly irrelevant) that maybe it’s time to pay closer attention to the issue:
If the U.S. allows financing towards Cuba, it will be the U.S. taxpayers who would sustain the Castro regime. Since it has run out of doors to knock on (for credit), the Castro regime is now focused on the United States.” (Cuban dissident and three-time Amnesty-International prisoner of conscience Rene Gomez Manzanoin.)
“Whoops!” you say. “How’s that again?!”
