Mandela's final act of peace: Obama shakes hands with Fidel Castro's brother (before selfies with David Cameron and Danish PM)

President Obama shook hands with Cuban President Raul Castro today, an unprecedented gesture of friendship which occurred, fittingly, at the memorial service for Nelson Mandela.

The handshake between leaders of the two Cold War enemies took place during a ceremony which honored the former South African President's powerful legacy of reconciliation...

Speaking of the photo ops at Mandela's memorial; it looks like Obama got a bit of a scolding from the Mooch after playing nicey nice with Denmark's Prime Minister. After putting on her nasty face she decided to plop her ample posterior and petulant scowl between her nubby and the white interloper.

Kind of ironic that Obama shook the hand of the leader of a brutal, oppressive regime and the funeral for the leader of a brutal, oppressive regime.

Ref. my post on Cuba’s continuing status as a terrorist nation, and Raul Castro’s statements about terrorism and their willingness to use it. So obamaumao— what did he say- “hey, man— if i wanna there’s a drone toasting yo’ a@@”

World socialism via obamaumao— what could be better?

Odd, I missed the Caliph behaving that way at Margaret Thatcher’s funeral.

Oh, wait ...

Unfortunately I think that is her normal expression. When not on vay-cay, that is.
