This is being done now for one reason....to PO Russia.
Could be it was Cuba that folded knowing Russia and Venezuela are about to go boom.
This could be the beginning of Marco’s Comeback Kid story
if he doesn’t overplay it. Many Cubans or those with Cuban heritage feel very strongly about not legitimizing Castro’s Communist government in any way.
I think you’re right.
Of course, Obama won’t take advantage of the leverage that we would hold if that were the case.
The only enemies now are those countries which were our friends. Essentially, if a country is not communist or terrorist, it’s now an enemy of the US.

The biggest tragedy of all is that Obama is trying to turn Israel out from the friend category to the enemy category. Go figure: Sanctions on Israel but not on Cuba. Obama is a nightmare.
Two more LONG years before we are rid of him.
Janet Reno just heard the news, sighed, and poured herself another double Bacardi Rum & Coke, while she stares into the aquarium, thinking about once being famous, thinking of careers gone by.
