In his last week before leaving office, President Barack Obama overturned a 50-year US Government policy of allowing Cuban refugees who reach our shores to remain in the country. In contrast to the "dreamers" that Obama has declared must not be sent back to Mexico even though they entered the United States illegally, Cubans arriving without visas will be expelled.
"Refugees from Mexico have a legitimate reason for coming to America," Obama said. "Their country's economy isn't providing sufficient jobs or benefits to support their survival. Cubans don't face this kind of hardship. Their government is dedicated to ensuring social justice. Everyone who wants a job is guaranteed one. Crucial social services like education and medical care are provided free of charge to all Cubans. There is no valid reason for them to want to leave and even less reason to allow these deranged individuals to stay here."
The move is seen as a key to improving the relationship between Cuba and the United States. "For too long we have assumed an adversarial stance toward our southern neighbor," the President asserted. "This has blinded us to the very real progress made under the rule of the Castro brothers. Though our previous policy has proven a drain on the Cuban economy by siphoning off people whom the Cuban government has borne the expense for educating and nurturing, the Castro Administration has graciously agreed to readmit its citizens that we return to them. This demonstration of goodwill in the face of the abuse our country has heaped upon Cuba over the years is an encouraging sign of the brighter future both countries can look forward to in the decades to come."

Sending ANY ILLEGAL ALIEN back should not be satire. It should be reality, regardless of where they came from. And if the concern is communism, half the world is under communism, shall we simply invite them all in?
Fox should put this one all over the place so the people can not say a thing about the controlling of Muslim “refugees” Trump wishes to accomplish. Cubans are not the people’s enemy. Muslim terrorists and their worldwide supporters that aid in the killing and slaughter of people around the world and in the US are. Obama can’t have it both ways. So much for his legacy. But it is a real epiphany as to his transparency. So long Barrack. It’s almost time for you to run out of feet either in your mouth or shooting yourself in. The getting is good now. Get out and stay out!
