Fidel Castro: Obama 'misinterpreted' Raul's words
Associated Press By WILL WEISSERT HAVANA – Fidel Castro says President Barack Obama "misinterpreted" his brother Raul's remarks regarding the United States and bristled at the suggestion that Cuba should free political prisoners or cut taxes on remittances from abroad as a goodwill gesture to the U.S. Raul Castro touched off a whirlwind of speculation last week that the U.S. and Cuba could be headed toward a thaw in nearly a half-century of chilly relations.This Day in History: April 17th
1961: The Bay of Pigs invasion begins when a CIA-financed and -trained group of Cuban refugees lands in Cuba and attempts to topple the communist government of Fidel Castro. The attack was an utter failure.

Unscientific Redistribution of Wealth Experiment
Today on my way to lunch I passed a homeless guy with a sign that read "Vote Obama, I need the money." I laughed. Once in the restaurant my server had on a "Obama 08" tie, again I laughed as he had given away his political preference--just imagine the coincidence.A History Lesson
A History Lesson In the late 1950's most Cubans thought Cuba needed "a change" and they were right. So when a young, dynamic leader came along, every Cuban was at least receptive. When the young leader spoke eloquently and passionately and denounced the old system, the press fell in love with him.Castro Praises Nobel Prize for Obama

Castro Praises Nobel Prize for Obama
George JoyceWhen Confucius was once asked about being praised he made sure to qualify his answer by noting that he’d prefer to be admired by the good people and hated by the bad.News is emerging from Cuba that the communist dictator Fidel Castro has praised the Nobel Committee for its recent decision to award the Peace Prize to Barack Obama:
"I don't always share the positions of [the Nobel Committee] but I'm obligated to recognize that in this instance it was, in my judgment, a positive measure.”
Castro went on to note that the Obama Peace Prize decision was more than anything else a repudiation of “the genocidal policies that not a few presidents of that country have followed.”In other words, by helping to liberate millions of Iraqis and Afganis from brutal tyrannies George Bush was committing “genocide” according to Castro.
Why does Fidel Castro accuse “not a few” American presidents of “genocide” but praise Barack Obama? The answer can be found in a short but profound section of Machiavelli’s classic leadership manual, The Prince:
“And anyone who becomes lord of a city used to living in liberty and does not destroy it may expect to be destroyed by it, because such a city always has as a refuge, in any rebellion, the spirit of liberty and its ancient institutions, neither of which is never forgotten either because of the passing of time or because of the bestowal of benefits.”
Simply put, Castro’s tyranny is much safer with Obama leading the “free” world than George Bush. Once the “spirit of liberty” germinates in a society a tyrant’s days are numbered.Machiavelli’s message offers in addition some advice for Barack Obama: unless a leader destroys it completely “the spirit of liberty and its ancient institutions” will never be forgotten, despite “the passing of time and the bestowal of benefits.”

Obama sides with the communitsts....shocking
I know Lain posted an article on this topic earlier, but I feel that this is an important topic. It shows Obama's character, or lack there of, and where his allegiance lies. His allegiance is obviously not for the people, but for the corrupt leader destroying their constitution, much like he wants to with the United States.After 50 years, what's next for U.S.-Cuba ties?

Plot Against Anti-Communist Honduras
By Cliff Kincaid July 1, 2009 The people of Honduras are pleading for media fairness and understanding of how they saved their democratic system of government from an international conspiracy based in Venezuela and Cuba. In desperate messages to the outside world, Hondurans want America to know they do not want former President Manuel "Mel" Zelaya returned to power through the intervention of the United States and the United Nations. On Tuesday the leftist governments of Barack Obama and Hugo Chavez sponsored a United Nations resolution that condemned the people of Honduras for resisting the spread of communism by evicting a would-be dictator.The Anti-Reagan
by Patrick J. Buchanan 06/09/2009 Despite his boldness, Barack Obama seems as fated to fail as were Woodrow Wilson and Jimmy Carter. And for the same reason: a belief in his own righteousness and moral superiority, and a belief that his ideals and his persona count mightily in the modern world.
