(CNSNews.com) – In a joint press conference with Cuban dictator Raul Castro in Havana, Cuba, on Monday, President Barack Obama said he welcomes Castro’s criticism of the U.S.

“I actually welcome President Castro commenting on some of the areas where he feels that we’re falling short, because I think we should not be immune or afraid of criticism or discussion as well,” Obama said.

Obama was responding to a reporter’s question about whether the Communist country has Cuban political prisoners and why Castro won’t release them.

Obama said the two “had a very frank conversation around issues of democracy and human rights.”

In "Obamaworld", Cuba has the perfect form of government so criticism of the U.S. is encouraged.

Castro can go to hell. He's a lousy communist and his people are his slaves.

Obama is just plain ignorant.

The Founding Fathers wanted only an American to be president, this is why.

“President Barack Obama said he welcomes Castro’s criticism of the U.S.”

Obama finally found someone who hates the American people almost as much as he does.

It’s a shame Mao and Stalin can’t chime in, I’m sure he’d love to hear theirs too.

Obama said the two “had a very frank conversation around issues of democracy and human rights....................I do not believe that. Especially with the obma and che photo-op just when you think he cannot sink any lower, he does.

[Vigilanteman]

He not only welcomes it; he agrees with it!

Go %$#% yourself you authoritarian thug. And you too, Castro.

Of course. A Commie Duet singing "Boo America". It'll sell like crazy on campus.

[Steely Tom]

I remember when the President defended the United States against criticism from foreign leaders.

Apparently, President Obama is unable to do this.

[TexasCajun]

And in other news: 'Raul Castro outs Barack Obama'

BINGO

“Obama is just plain ignorant.”

You are giving him too much credit. Obama is not ignorant, he is a fellow communist himself. Just wait and see how he will decide to give the US Naval base over to Cuba.
