President Barack Hussein Obama hit his lifetime apex yesterday by publicly groveling to the communist leader of Cuba. Openly swearing allegiance to Cuba’s 57-year-long communist manifesto, he publicly agreed with Raúl Castro that America is the most hateful member in what they both hope is a dying capitalist world; the nation most responsible for the grinding poverty in Communism’s only North American outpost.
A country, where virginal innocence is handed over for a package of chewing gum or the promise of a washing machine, was made to look superior to the country to which thousands of Cubans flee on any rickety thing that will float.
Back In 2009 Obama began his Hate-America agenda against the ‘Land of the Free’, ‘Home of the Brave’ by putting it down in the Arab world, and is now ending it by putting America down in the 57-year-old communist state of Cuba. The photos in the American family history album, destined to keep speaking a thousand words even long after he’s gone, include the one with him standing proudly in front of the photo of the murderous brute Ché Guevara, and the telltale limp-wristed one where Raúl Castro seemed unwilling to let go of his arm.
With all of the breath-taking arrogance that only a self-made community organizer cum dictator could call his own, Obama’s message to the West is: “What Barack wants, Barack always gets.”

....anybody else think Chisimard won’t be welcomed back after her pardon?
Obama is dog dirt. All leftists are scum.
It is so pathetic that U.S. Citizens must rely on foreign media to find the reality of what is happening to our country and the disgraceful actions of US President Obama.
Part of the reason for the 1st Amendment is to enable freedom of the press. What a shame the US media refuse to see, understand or report the truth. As Patrick Henry said in 1775 at the Virginia Convention:
It is natural to man to indulge in the illusions of hope. We are apt to shut our eyes against a painful truth - and listen to the song of that syren, till she transforms us into beasts. Is this the part of wise men, engaged in a great and arduous struggle for liberty? Are we disposed to be of the number of those, who having eyes, see not, and having ears, hear not, the things which so nearly concern their temporal salvation? For my part, whatever anguish of spirit it might cost, I am willing to know the whole truth; to know the worst, and to provide for it.
OBAMA EMBRACES CASTRO-COMMUNISM Dqban22 8/16/2015
The Catholic Magazine “Ideal” couldn’t better describe the ceremony of raising the American flag at the U.S. embassy in Havana:
“Another unpardonable treason…”
“Absent at the ceremony were:”
“Thousands murdered by Castro’s firing squads.”
“Thousands of political prisoners.”
“Thousands drowned at sea.”
“Millions of Exiles.”
“Millions of divided families.”
“Millions of unborn babies.”
“Three generations living in material And spiritual poverty.”
One of the most used ad nauseam arguments to justify the unconditional surrender of president Obama to the Cuban Stalinist regime is that over 50 years U.S. commercial embargo against the Cuban communist regime did not work and that it damaged the Cuban people and not those in power without producing any political change in Cuba.
The fact is that the embargo did not fail. What failed was the lack of solidarity of the rest of world with the enslaved Cuban people. There was not a worldwide blockade and repudiation of the Cuban Stalinist regime as it was enforced when the world decided to put an end to the apartheid regime in South Africa.
In fact, the Soviet Union was not alone in the spoiling of Cuba. Spain, Canada and Mexico were also main partners and financiers of Castro’s terror network and the genocide of the Cuban people.
Cuba has been under a brutal Stalinist regime frozen in time for over 56 years. The Castro brothers have killed and imprisoned more Cubans than during the worst period of the Stalin terror era in relation to its population.
It is a fact that the Castro brothers have sent more than 20,000 Cubans to death at the “paredón” (firing squads) and that they are responsible for the death at sea of more than 40,000 men, women and children who fled the Cuban hell in fragile makeshift rafts preferring certain death at the Florida Straits rather than continue living in slavery.
Castro is also responsible for the imprisonment and torture of over 500,000 Cubans (including children) during his 56 years of tyranny.
According to the best world authority in Cuba’s History, English scholar Hugh Thomas, referring to the Cuban tragedy, (The Spectator, 7/12/1986) he affirmed that: “The comparison must be with the account of Nazi concentration camps. Although there are yet no gas chambers in Cuba, there have been experiments of a criminal biological type designed to see how far an individual can survive starvation, beating, solitary confinement, and many various kinds of ill treatment. Valladares’ account of working in a stone quarry is not dissimilar to, and no more humane than, the many accounts extant of ‘life’ in Manthausen. Nor should one forget that the brutalities in Nazi Germany lasted at most 12 years and the gross cruelties in the Auschwitz camp continue for four years.”
During the last 56 years Cuba traded freely with the rest of world, including the U.S. since food and medicine were not included in the embargo, nor were the over billions of dollars sent to the Island prison by their family exiled in U.S. Cuba could buy anything from any other country, including American products.
The problem for those who traded with Cuba is that they were not paid back for their delivered products and did not want to continue selling to Cuba on credit. One great success of the embargo is that American business and entrepreneurs were not defrauded again by the Castro regime because by law any of the trade allowed with Cuba must be paid for in advance.
Cuba, a country that before the Communism was self sustained, with a solid economy and a currency that was accepted internationally on par to the dollar, a country that received immigrants while Cubans didn’t need to emigrate.
After Castro’s communist regime, Cuba became a hell hole where even the youth born indoctrinated after the revolution preferred to die at sea in quest of freedom than to continue living “in opprobrium and afrenta sumidos” (in opprobrium and affront sunk) in words of the Cuban national anthem. Many of the over 130 countries that trade with Cuba are prosperous without depending of trading with U.S. Cuba also traded freely before Castro with over 100 countries (including the Soviet Union). The Cubans enjoyed the highest standard of living in Latin America, and also higher than many Western European countries in the 1950’s.
Cuba also enjoyed a top international credit rate. Now Cuba’s credit rate is at the level of Somalia while its standard of living is not much better than Haiti’s.
The misery and oppression in Cuba are not due to the U.S. embargo, but to the legacy of communism with its sequel of destruction of the economic infrastructure of the country and of the work ethics and the moral that had previously characterized the Cuban people, traits of their ethos proved in any country where the Cuban exiles landed in their quest for freedom.
The billions of dollars received annually from the Soviet Union were not used for the development of Cuba or in rising the meager lives of the Cubans, but to sustain Castro’s terror network all around the world, especially in Latin America, including the imperialist wars in Africa at the service of the Soviet Union’s ambitions in that continent.
Castro’s worldwide terror network culminated with the Tricontinental Conference, where terrorists coordinated their worldwide war plans in Havana in 1966 under the leadership of Fidel Castro. (Claire Sterling “The Terror Network).
“Those who ignore history is damned to repeat it” George Santayana
Comrade Obama is consciously and shamefully following on the steps of the Soviet Union and Venezuela when he decided to keep afloat the Cuban Stalinist regime making the American taxpayers the sugar daddy of the Castro brothers, an stigma in American history
