Hussein and the media supposed that sucking up to Castro would make people stop fleeing communism.

It hasn't.

So the policy started by Clinton, I think, is ending as the worst occupant of the Oval Office in history is leaving.

Mixed feelings on this--it was instituted, supposedly, to have mercy on people fleeing communism. Those fleeing the poverty of Haiti, etc. are not given that privilege.

The coward waited until after the election to make this policy.

Elian Gonzalez found out that Cubans are the only ones deported.
And he had dry feet.

Actually, the policy was modified by Clinton. Prior to the 1995 wet-foot/dry-foot provision, we were not sending any intercepted on the water back to Cuba. Clinton changed that, and allowed only those fleeing Cuba who actually made it to shore to stay.

Under Clinton, dry feet didn't always guarantee anything.

He is doing this as payback to the Cubans who vote conservative. What a bully and crybaby snowflake Obama is!

That policy long predates Clinton, and Clinton violated when he sent back Elian. Of course Trump can just put it back.

Others have said it, I will chime in, Cuban’s lean republican.

He isn’t even trying to hide his agenda. Spitting in their face but after the election of course.

What a puke.

Good. It was an insane policy to begin with. And Clinton was right to send Elian to live with his father. A child belongs with his or her biological parents unless there is some immediate grave danger. It was carried out in an idiotic way with the militarized police though.

Mixed feelings here also. I understand stopping the water exits will save lives.

I also understand that the misery causes The risk taking, to the point of death.

Poor suffering Cubans. What is our Coast Guard’s duty to those who could be saved when spotted?

The policy was ridiculous....scrapping it was a good thing...
Which shows that like a broken clock, even Obama can be right once in a while...

Before Clinton, wet foot or dry foot, they were allowed to stay.
