And NONE of the American flags I’ve seen today in Texas are at half mast for our Five Marines killed on American soil

It is an outrage and I don’t care about the Cuban flag

I grew up in Hialeah so I have a special perspective. I think this is a good thing. It may take awhile, but the door has been opened. Time will tell. Capitalism will defeat communist eventually. Hopefully families can be reunited. I would love to visit Cuba. I love the Cuban people, love Cuban coffee and Cuban food. I grew up with a lot of wonderful Cuban people.

While I am in no way defending Castro, you need to remember that thousands of people who supported the wrong ‘George’ (that is, the King versus the General) during your Revolution, lost everything. They lost their houses and possessions, confiscated by the new bankrupt government to pay for the war. They received no recompense, and were forced to NYC, to board ships destined for Halifax. My ancestors lost a farm in Virginia. Unfortunately, what is sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander or, would you like to start reparation talks with me and my relatives about my ancestor’s losses?

Wars and revolutions have winners and losers. Those who chose GB over the revolutionaries almost 250 years ago, lost. Those Americans who ‘invested’ in Cuba, lost. You invest in something that is ‘iffy’, don’t be surprised if it turns around and bites you in the butt. Now should O’Venal have opened relations with communist Cuba? NO WAY! FWIW, I have never vacationed there nor do I have a desire to because like all totalitarian regimes, you only see the bright, shiny S!iling faces they want you to see, not the REAL Cuba after the revolution. There is however, a strong underground church in Cuba that is growing, to which friends have met with some of those leaders. If I ever went there, it would be to assist these folks.

Says it all in a simple picture. The only thing I would change, if I could, would be the expression on Obama’s face. I would change it to one of pure joy and excitement over scoring yet another victory for America’s enemies.

Of course it’s capitulation. Cuba did NOTHING to earn this.

This is a lot more offensive to me than the Confederate Flag.

That’s right. It just lowers our nation once again.

The guy took his little “Carter’s” pills by the mouthfull, and has screwed up so many things like Carter did Iran.

Johnson, Cater, Clinton, and Obama...

Whew, with the efforts of the Democrats in the U. S., who needs enemies?

If Obama can fly that flag, then I can fly the Confederate flag.

Meanwhile, his mom risked her (and his) life in shark-infested waters, in a rickety old boat, to bring him to America where he would have lived a much better life. Unless he’s been given the “royal treatment” there for propaganda purposes and is living the life of Reilly. Looks like that might be the case.

“...nobody ever talks of the billions of dollars of American owned property seized by Cuba after the revolution???”

An excellent point. I thought of that last night while watching the news.

If we apply what Dinesh D’Souza wrote about in “The Roots of Obama’s Rage”, the issue of reparations will never be brought up.

Obama views corporations as an extension of colonialism. As far as he’s probably concerned, he doesn’t care a bit about reparations.
