Obama: Cuba’s Revolution, Like America’s, Was a ‘Liberation Movement’
National Review ^ | 3/22/16 | Tom S. Elliott

President Obama told the Cuban people this morning the Communist revolution that brought the Castros to power was a “liberation movement,” just like America’s own revolution. ”Here’s my message to the Cuban government and the Cuban people,” Obama said. ”The ideals that are the starting point for every revolution, America’s revolution, Cuba’s revolution, the liberation movements around the world, these ideals find their truest expression, I believe, in democracy.” “Not because American democracy is perfect,” he emphasized, ”but because we’re not, and we like every country need the space that democracy gives us to change. . . .

General Washington and his troops didn’t go about shooting royalists. Che and Castro went around shooting anti-revolutionists. Castro murdered his own generals. 0bozo, just shut up.

No, Mr. President. Cuba's revolution was a bloody bowel movement.

And you're over there standing in the bloody shit and calling it fine wine.

God is working through what the _resident is doing, though he has no clue of what God is doing through his actions! There is, and has been for some time, a revival occurring in Cuba. People are receiving Bibles from Canada and the US, the number of house churches is exploding and evangelical preachers are reaching people who are too young to have ever known anything but communism. By opening relations with Cuba, the _resident is creating the opportunity for continued growth in belief in the Lord, as more and more pastors can visit Cuba and train local pastors.

My church has been involved in ministry and supporting the training of preachers in Cuba, for many years. I just finished listening to ‘Haven Today’ with Charles Morris, speaking with a number of Believers and the Cuba Bible Authority. The broadcast reminded me of my church’s Ministry in Latin America.

One need only see how Christianity has spread through former Iron Curtain countries. It is happening in Cuba. What satan tries, that confounds people, God turns around and uses for His Glory!

Obama: Can’t tell the difference between Freedom and Slavery. Please, can you resign, so we can at least get some entertaining laughs out of Uncle Joe for a few months?

0bama, America’s Mugabe, jets off to Argentina without a modicum of respect for Belgium, Brussels, or its people. 0bama is an embarrassment to America.

How sad that an American President, on foreign soil, exposes such ignorance of the very basis of America's structuring of its government!

Famous quotations by James Madison (known as the "father" of the Constitution and Author of several of THE FEDERALIST essays, explaining the Constitution to "The People"):
