Obama is not alone in his insensitivity towards the suffering of the Cuban people. Republicans, as Arizona Congressman Flake, have been for many years in the front of Castro’s sycophants defending the Cuban Communist regime.
There many as Flake in Washington, women - bankers, business owners, government officials and others that support freer American travel to Cuba. They continue ignoring the blood and tears of hundreds of thousands of Cuban heroes and martyrs while they feast and party with the tyrant.
“An Arizona Republican, Rep. Jeff Flake, is sponsoring an amendment prohibiting the Treasury Department from spending money on enforcing the four-decade travel ban.”
Representative Flake, in proposing a project of law forcing the Executive power to ignore and violate the laws already in force that were promulgated by the Congress and signed by the President, denotes his faithful loyalty to his last name (a person marked by eccentric behavior or thinking). He wants to institute in our country a cafeteria rule of law in which each one picks whatever laws they want to obey or to ignore.
“Flake believes that by traveling more freely to Cuba, Americans will bring with them ideas and values that will help end the communist regime.” In other words, the contact with hundreds of thousands of European, Canadian, and Latin American tourists, have not been able to infest the Cubans with the virus of democracy. According to Rep. Flake, only by the contact with the American tourists, the virus of democracy and freedom can be transmitted.
Is Obama as delirious as Flake? Unless the Americans he has in mind are the Marines.
“According to Rep. Flake, only by the contact with the American tourists, the virus of democracy and freedom can be transmitted.”
50 years of training the Cubans to hate the US isn’t going to change anything. Hatred is what motivates the Cubans to sacrifice for the ‘common good’. The regime cannot afford to give up the emotional control of the people.
