We have diplomatic relations with China, Russia and Saudi Arabia. They are all at least as bad as Cuba.

Cuba is merely 90 miles away, thus making that barbaric country an existential threat.

Then send a “way to go” letter to Obama, since you apparently think this is a brilliant move by the Kenyan.

Meanwhile, let me remind you that China and Russia and the Sauds are quite different from Cuba. All three are significant trading partners with us on manufactured goods and energy. Cuba has tobacco.

Cuba is repressive, just like the other places you mentioned; that does not make for an argument to bolster the Cuban dictatorship.

Yes and we also have diplomatic ties with Cuba. They don’t call it an Embassy its a diplomatic mission or some such but my brother in law is with the State Dept and he had to fly down there about 5 years ago for a week or so. Its a large office in a building in downtown Havana. So this is just something that should have happened long ago. The GOP was afraid to buck the Cuban enclave in S Fla as they are a reliable conservative voting bloc.

You are misinformed about Saudi Arabia
