Why Is Obama Parroting Castro Talking Points?

by MONA CHAREN April 17, 2015

The Cuban people are suffering because of their repressive government, not the U.S. embargo. Two relatively recent photos of Barack Obama with foreign leaders reveal much about his deep-dyed leftism. The first features President Obama and democratically-elected prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu, leader of one of America’s most loyal friends. Obama looks strained. His face is stiff, and his eyes are veiled.

The second is a snap of Obama at the recent Summit of the Americas in Panama. He’s seated with “President” Raul Castro, leader of a bitter enemy, who has never received a single free vote. Obama is grinning, his eyes dancing with pleasure. In contrast to the bitterness with which Obama addresses Netanyahu, he is all honey with Castro. “So I want to thank President Castro for the spirit of openness and courtesy that he has shown during our interactions . . . President Castro earlier today spoke about the significant hardships that the people of Cuba have undergone over many decades. I can say with all sincerity that the essence of my policy . . . is to make sure that the people of Cuba are able to prosper and live in freedom and security . . .”

Did you catch that? Castro was assigning blame for the “hardships” Cuba has endured since the revolution to the U.S. — and Obama was agreeing with him! It wasn’t the first time.

Why wouldn;t they sound the same?

They are both thoroughly corrupt narcissistic Marxist thugs who think they are better than everybody else.

He is a straight up communist plus an Islam sympathiser, who are also totalitarians. Just look at who is mentors were and his foreign policy behavior, and it's perfectly clear to a 12 year old. Well, at least those 12 year olds who are still taught true history.

Can anyone post the photo of him carrying a book called, "The World After America"? I don't have the program.

You said that. You figured that out. Why? Because it's as obvious as the nose on Dustin Hoffmans face. But this author doesn't say it. She doesn't want to go there, apparently. So, who's the real journalist?

Not surprising, I doubt Lord Foul has had an original thought in his entire life.

He is a marxist at heart, easy enough answer.

If Obama isn’t in direct communication with Satan I’d be surprised.
