People suffered for 60 years but you felt good.
I don't feel good that the Cuban people have suffered under Communism for 60 years.
But you are fine with our sanctions that contributed to their suffering and accomplished nothing.
What diplomatic efforts has Cuba made to improve relations since the whole, being our enemy thing?
Not my issue. People are. Politics sucks.
Cuba is the small nation that choose to be the enemy of the superpower that lived right next door. Not a good plan.
If you care about people, then what Cuba does diplomatically to repair that damage, is important.
Have they stopped all the rhetoric about how America is evul, for example?
I can't say that I see them saying much of anything but as others have noted, China and other countries will step in and fulfill what they need.
We can continue to pretend we are doing something.
This is how things work. We put sanctions on China and other countries stepped in to fill their needs. If we prefer to spin our wheels, that's on you (and others) I guess.
Ok. Then they don't need access to the world's largest market, which just happens to be right next door.
Have a good time, and stop bothering me kid.
They don't so much now. We ceded that to others because.........???
So we would feel better?
Your pretense of not knowing about the Cold War, is .... dismissed.
Cuba made a bad call. They choose to be our enemy. When they are right next door. Their side lost the Cold War and they have done nothing to repair relations.
Ball is in their court.
They want to be China's bitch? lol, sure, the Chinese are well known for being gentle masters.
Cuba said all kinds of things 60 years ago. Irrelevant today.
Oh? You saying that don't talk the line of jive anymore?
I see very little.
So, you don't know? Neither do I. I assume they still talk the shit, because why would they not?
It's not like we are going to DO anything about it. So, why not talk tough and maybe fool someone here and there into thinking they are relevant, and maybe get some loving from other anti-American assholes in the world, of which there are many, even inside the US.
Supporting the idea that any country that doesn't bend to our every whim is our enemy is the anti-american position.
So true, yet so many Americans don’t get that.
Cuba did a little more than, "not bend to our every whim".
And hey, I'm open to hearing what they are doing to mend relations. After all, Cold War is over.
Yeah it’s up to little Cuba to fix the relationship, after the US government’s 60 year attack on it.
Agreed. We don't need them, they need US. They want better relations, I'm open to what they have to say.
Perfect attitude for what pretends to be a Christian nation.
The problem is that all have to be Christian. And those who are not play games to guilt people. Guilting them to the abyss.
All do not. We pretend we are a Christian nation. For far too many, politics is their religion.
Funny, I've had long, long drag out arguments with leftards that consider the idea that we " are a Christian Nation" to be pure evulness.
Now a lefty wants to use that to get soft treatment for a commie hellhole.

Not being able to address what I say you have to try and paint me in your safe little box.
Just keeping it real.
Do you believe that we are a Christian Nation and that we SHOULD base our national policies on our Christian heritage and ideals?
You know, since you brought it up.
No we are not but I believe we should live more up to the principles people pretend they have
Sorry, it's either or. If you want to throw the "Christian nation" shit in our faces, then you have to agree that we are a Christian Nation.
Otherwise, you are just a smarmy bastard playing asshole games.
Me? I do believe that we are a Christian Nation, adn that we should base our policies on our Christian Heritage and ideals.
We say we are BUT we are not. Your statements prove that out.
I think your use of "We" is kind of dishonest here. You are trying to have it both ways, just so you can talk some shit on other people.
YOU don't believe we are a Christian Nation. So, save the "we" talk.
If you want to make an argument about why you think we should have better relations with Cuba, maybe instead of pretending to be part of something YOU ARE NOT,
you should just be honest about YOUR REASONS for it.
OR, is your real motive here, just to talk shit on Christians? Are you just using the suffering of the Cubans as gist for your smear campaign?
