With Odumbo in charge he is getting his Christmas wish: Castro gets bailed out - again - and keeps his totalitarian regime.

It was nothing short of a complete capitulation.

Stalin won because he created fear among the populas. They were used to government that controlled the people. Odumbo cannot achieve his precious goals because nothing he does can instill obedience in a free people.

Cuba will turn into an oligarchy like China and Russia. The elite, well-connected few will cash in big time while the populus struggles to survive.

hi there.
i am going to leave your comment unanswered because I’m still trying to figure out the new Pope. The last three popes were clearly Christians (we can all disagree with all sorts of things... their positions on issues, their authority, etc etc etc, but I think the last three popes were remarkable, overall, just my humble opinion). This new pope... I haven’t yet deciphered. I do have fears that you may be right about him. I hesistate to conclude on the topic because almost every time there’s an alarming or strange article about what he supposedly said or did, there’s a retraction or rebuttal just a day or two later.
It leaves me wondering. A lot. But, well... I just can’t figure it out yet. Maybe in a few months... he either is the wrong man in the job (the Holy Spirit may have been on vacation when he was selected?) or else he’s getting some very unfair media treatment (which is very possible given the problems with today’s mass media!)... We will see....

Thanks for your understanding.
We will see.
You could be correct, I’m not refuting you.

A Day in Infamy - Barack Obama’s Cuban Pact

Canada Free Press ^ | 12/20/14 | Obie Usategui

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/3239237/posts

I consider Obama’s renewed relations with the communist island as one of the most despicable political acts I have ever been a witness to. Inherent evil of Barack Obama and his administration For the most part of the Cuban-American community residing in Miami, Florida, the day of Wednesday, December 17th, 2014, will—more likely than not—go down in their history books as a day in infamy, much the same as did December 7th, 1941, for all Americans. The former, when Barack Obama announced the U.S. restoring full relations with Cuba, including the opening of an embassy in the island—a bold move...
