Obama shakes hands with Raul Castro at Mandela's memorial service

Yes, the point is, you're just another two-faced, "do as we say and not as we do" Rightie.

Wrong again dimwit; but alas, you're a repugnant ignoramus who merely trolls threads in an attempt to drag them down to your low IQ level.

YOU REALLY ARE THAT STUPID
 
I wish they would have shaken hands many years ago. We need to find a way to get rid of the sanctions harming the Cuban People and lining the pockets of the Florida Tourism and sugar industries.

So the repressive brutal Communist Cuban regime has no blame and does not have to meet American demands? Why?

Why are you mistakenly claiming that US sanctions are harming Cuba when they are free to trade with any other nation?
 
Has anyone noticed how Marxist leftists want to blame the poverty of the Cuban people on AmeriKa but never blame the brutal repressive Communist regime that causes such misery?

Has anyone also noticed how Marxist leftists want America to unilaterally end their embargo while allowing the brutal repressive Communist regime to continue?

I have also noticed that Marxist leftists never blame the brutal repressive Communists for the malaise in Cuba, but rather America.

Are Marxist leftist really THAT stupid?

So I ask the Marxist leftists; why can't the brutal and repressive Communist regime step down and implement Democracy as a condition for eliminating the embargo?

I never said #1

As far as #2, An inability to trade with the worlds larges economy that is 90 miles from your shores harms the people of Cuba, to say differently is idiotic. If the sanctions are not harming Cuba, why do we have them?
 
Do you have anything more than hyperbole and uninformed opinion to support your claims? I am quite certain America has issues with dealing with any repressive regime; but alas, Batista wasn't repressive. He didn't prevent citizens from traveling or pursuing jobs or starting companies.

He took over in a coup for sure; but what was unusual about that in this part of the world. Castro took over in a bloody revolution, assassinated his opponents and repressed his citizens, yet you seem to have more issues with Batista who strongly supported by Trade Unions and allowed free movement and capitalism; why is that?



Another moronic claim from someone inclined to engage in ignorant ramblings while deflecting from the questions he has been asked.

Why do you think it is incumbent for America to unilaterally end their embargo rather than the brutal Communist dictators ending their repressive one party rule and allowing for Democratic reforms?

Batista led a coup and then rescinded most civil liberties and banned strikes. He then proceeded to forge lucrative alliances with the Mafia essentially running a huge protection racket. His secret police also indulged in widespread torture and public executions, culminating in the deaths of many thousands.

Castro was no saint and the revolution did summarily execute a number of people and he tolerated little dissent in his regime but was he worse than Batista? I think your main problem is with the regime being Communist and is more about ideology than anything else.

Would you like some Cuban coffee?
 
Remember how the Chief 'Israeli' Nazi and the leader of the Resistance shook hands at Camp David? it was big news way back when. The shits will still try to starve the Cuban people, out of their usual spite.

Yet you infer it when you argue we need to unilaterally lift these sanctions.

How does not trading with America harm Cuban trade? Cuba is a very small nation with limited exports; are you arguing that they cannot find other markets that will buy their exports?

Are you also claiming that America is the only country Cuba can import from? If so why?

Do you comprehend that if the brutal and repressive Communist regime ended their dictatorship and allowed Democratic reforms these sanctions would end tomorrow?
 
I don't believe that Obama knew it was Raul Castro. I think he shook hands with the first person he came up to...

Its not the dictatorship the sanctions are harming.
 
Consider this..

Obama would help the Democratic nominee and party if he pushes toward a more relaxed or normalized relationship with Cuba. Both Jeb Bush and Marco Rubio have voiced very strong anti-Cuban feelings. They can easily be painted as radical on the issue (outside of South Florida).

If the American people begin to see the advantages or normalized relationship and the humanity of the Cuban people it will be easier to limit the Republicans viable choices even further than they are already limited.
 
I don't believe that for one second, the guest list would have been scrutinised over and over, just in case Obama encountered a shit like Mugabe.

I'd agree if I didn't watch the painful man-hug moments. I think the people advising him didn't do a good job at all, he wasn't prepared and blundered his way around. The miniscule gravitas of this President is overwhelmed by his cheerleaders in the media. I'm certain the Secret Service did their job and ensured that he was safe, but his advising staff either were not listened to or they did a poor job.

Are you kidding me? You don't think this was planned and orchestrated ahead of time... either to change the subject from HealthCare or for some other reason?

Another repugnantly stupid comment from the forums Marxist dimwit from Scotland.
