Fuck Cuba, Fuck Castro

I'm actually in favor of opening Cuba up. Nothing will help the country more than a bunch of black sock, knee long white short, flower print shirt wearing American tourist swamping that lil' island to end the poverty.

But this is fucking bullshit. Castro spits in America's face during a conference ... then praises Obama.

Fuck this guy ... fuck him straight to hell.

    Why do you hate the truth? We DO have a history of imperialist aggression. Most people just admit it and say who cares, we are strong so we did what we could get away with. Do you deny it?

    The Soviets used to do the same thing.

    Bullshit.

    If that was the case, Mexico would have been annexed on a couple of occasions after conquest and Havana would be Vegas with beaches.

    We kept Hawaii'i, the Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico, Samoa and Guam - a couple of sweet vacation spots, a source for some baseball and football players and a rock in the middle of the Pacific. You must have missed the part where we gave Panama and the Philippines independence without so much as a shot being fired. Big sucking deal.

    Also realize the conquered natives operate legally as sovereign nations within the borders of the United States. Nobody does that.

    This isn't about history, it is about unthawing relations.

    It is akin to Juan Garcia becoming a Husky Legend, he gives a speech about how much Washington cheated throughout history, and how it took a guy like Ty Willingham to come in and clean up the program.

    He's spitting in America's face and praising Obama because he knows Obama will cave in any negotiation.

    This isn't about the right thing for the people of Cuba, it is about Obama desperately trying to find a foreign policy legacy.

    You forgot the Philippines were sovereign US Territory when Japan invaded them to start WWII and that Filipinos were US Citizens. But people in Ohio forget lots of shit.

    BTW, Pershing marched all the way through Mexico to its southern border, only to give it back. Ask the Mexicans if they wish we had kept it.

    When Cohiba's start showing up at Walmart, I might begin to believe Castro is serious about growing the Cuban Oconomy.
