Kerry Excited to Be ‘First Sec. of State in 60 Years to Visit Cuba’

John Kerry’s going to Cuba.

The Secretary of State praised President Barack Obama’s announcement of the normalization of relations with Cuba, the neighboring country under an embargo for over fifty years, in a statement Wednesday.

As Obama did in his noon remarks, Kerry likened the thaw of relations to those that followed with Vietnam after the Vietnam War, in which Kerry served.

“This new course will not be without challenges,” Kerry said, “but it is based not on a leap of faith but on a conviction that it’s the best way to help bring freedom and opportunity to the Cuban people, and to promote America’s national security interests in the America’s, including greater regional stability and economic opportunity for American businesses.”

Is he excited because he can access the child prostitutes and beaches? Cuba doesn’t have much to offer but that.

I find it odd that the same people who talk about the “ghosts of the past” from generations ago seem to ignore the tens of thousands, if not hundreds of thousands, murdered for political crimes under the explicit and implicit orders of the the current Cuban leadership. But then again, we all know the con going on with the current politics so the oddity is easily explained.

Kerry Excited to be given a shiny object.

Kerry Excited to hear about the “science” of global warming.

Kerry Excited to see an image of himself inside of a mirror and spent the rest of the day with Joe Biden trying to figure out how to get him out of there.

Of course Kerry is excited as treason and/or damage to American interests is his forte. In fact, I’ll bet he is so excited that he is manipulating his genitalia in a forlorn attempt to reduce his tension.

Even the cruelest Cuban dictators and bureaucrats do not deserve hours of talks with the arrogant, boring, ignorant Kerry.

Obama has done enormous damage as President, but the worst damage he has wrought has been the damage inflicted on his hapless allies on the left.

I hope he can bring the same benefits to Castro that he has brought to once close buddies such as Libya's Gaddafi, Egypt's Moresi, Venezuela's Hugo Chavez and Nicolás Maduro.

For these guys, Obama has been the kiss of death.

If I were Castro I would consider Obama sending John Kerry to Cuba to be an act of war.
