Do you not think the Obama State Department has
put their two cents into the pot?

Are we not talking about international hackers?

Threats against American citizens?

You should have heard Lou Dobbs attack Cruz tonight. He declared his show to be a “Cruz free zone” that is until he gets back into Lou’s good graces. It was disgusting. I tried to email but it wouldn’t go through. I couldn’t believe what he was saying. I may have to declare my house a FOX free zone if they continue to bash Cruz nightly like this. I’m disgusted.

OBAMA EMBRACE THE CUBAN GENOCIDE REGIME

Obama and Raúl Castro thank pope for breakthrough in US-Cuba relations.

Pope Francis, before visiting The Holy Land boasted to be himself the “Che” of the Palestinian people.

A Marxist leaning Pope blessed the Marxist American president embrace of Castro's genocide communist regime condemning the Cuban enslaved people to eternal damnation. On the deal Castro liberated an American illegally imprisoned in Cuba in exchange for the freedom of three Cuban spies serving prison terms in U.S. and the normalization of relations with a country that occupied for decades a top position in the list of the State Department ‘s terrorist countries.

The Cuban regime tried to obliterate New York and Washington with a nuclear attack during the October Missile Crisis of 1962. “In November 1962, the Castro brothers’ and Che Guevara’s agents had targeted Macy’s, Gimbels, Bloomingdales, and Manhattan’s Grand Central Station with a dozen incendiary devices and 500 kilos of TNT. The Holocaust was set for detonation the following week, on the day after Thanksgiving.” (Humberto Fontova)

Castro has been a strong ally of Islamic terrorism. Cuba continues to serve as a base for coordination and mutual support among transnational terrorist organizations. At Tehran University he stated to the thunderous applause of students and faculty, "The imperialist king will finally fall,” (AFP, May 10, 2001). Immediately afterward the Iranian Press Service proudly proclaimed that "Iran and Cuba reached the conclusion that together they can tear down the United States.” (IPS, May 10, 2001).

According to World renown and highly respected American investigative journalist and author, Claire Sterling, : “All of the world’s emerging terrorist bands in the 1970’s were indebted to the Cubans and their Russian patrons for that honeycomb of camps around Havana. None could have started without rudimentary training, and those who didn’t train in Cuba were trained by others who did.” (“The Terror Network, The Secret War on International Terrorism.”)

As reported by Sterling, “Castro was training the advance guards of the coming European fright decade – Palestinians, Italians, Germans, French, Spanish Basques – and forming guerrilla nuclei in practically every Western hemisphere state south of the American border. As far back as 1962, Castro’s camps were taking in 1,500 Latin American guerrillas a year. . ‘Any revolutionary movement anywhere in the world can count on Cuba’s unconditional support,’ declared Castro at the 1966 Tricontinental Conference in Havana”. It was then and there that the international terrorism network was consolidated under Castro’s leadership.”

Fidel Castro “jailed political prisoners at a higher rate than Stalin during the Great Terror. He murdered more Cubans in his first three years in power than Hitler murdered Germans during his first six. He came closer than anyone in history to starting a world-wide nuclear war.” Humberto Fontova. (http://www.carolinajournal.com/opinions/display_story.html?id=11121)

It is suicidal turning a blind eye to Castro, a deadly enemy at 90 miles south of Key West that does not hide his hatred for U.S.

After the restoration of diplomatic relations comes the end of the embargo.

To complete Obama’s betrayal of the American people, with the normalization of relations comes the opening to Cuba of the American and International bank credits that will sustain the Cuban regimen passing to the American taxpayers the same heavy burden that helped to bankrupt the Soviet Union.

He's probably saving that one for the last Ramadan while he's in office.

Who knows, maybe he'll throw in an official conversion to Islam?

I wouldn’t be surprised anymore if Obama asked for the hack himself.

Gee, Charles, I don’t know. Perhaps we should ask Mrs. Palin... but oh, gosh... you told her to “leave the room”, didn’t you?

Too bad, so sad.

My thoughts, exactly. If he wakes up a few idiots, it’s a good thing.

“I may have to declare my house a FOX free zone....”

I have been wondering the same thing. I am not going to tolerate much of this in my house.

If establishment wonks like Krauthammer hadn't forced RINO candidates on us we might not be stuck with 8 years of Obama. He will do it again if he can, count on it!

Obummer’s scorched policy to leave America defenseless and with no credibility.

The next real President will have much to repair.
