Obama embarrasses himself, US in Cuba (Updated)

Update: Obama is on his way to Argentina where we can assume he will apologize for our support we gave to Britain in the Falklands war. TD

Rick Moran   "President Obama stood next to Raúl Castro at a press conference in Cuba yesterday and was browbeaten by the Communist dictator in a humiliating spectacle that no president – no American – should have taken so meekly." . . .
. . . And the president of the United States just stood there and took it. Virtually the only resistance he offered came at the end, when Castro, a man whom we may presume is accustomed to getting what he wants, grabbed Obama’s wrist and tried to hoist it into the air for some sort of victory photo op. "Obama responded by letting his wrist go limp as Castro weirdly waved his arm around in the air."

"A real president – a real American – would have walked off that stage and left the country immediately.  But the president just stood there with a silly grin on his face, wallowing in the "historic" nature of the event.
. . . 
And Obama allows Castro to castigate the U.S. while standing there meekly like a student taking a dressing down from a teacher.  He is cheered on the left for this, who love the way Obama never allows the chance for an American humiliation to escape.  As for the rest of us, all we can do is hang our heads in shame that anyone such as this achieved the highest office in the land."

President Obama’s Che Moment  . . . "Che is, of course, ubiquitous on dorm-room walls and T-shirts in the United States, and a hero of the Cuban revolution. He also was a cold-blooded killer who set up the Cuban gulag and presided over summary executions of political prisoners (trials were, per Che, “an archaic bourgeois detail”)." . . .

". . . Che said that in the event of a U.S. attack, “if the rockets had remained, we would have used them all and directed them against the very heart of the United States, including New York, in our defense against aggression.' ”
