Barack Obama Cuba s Raul Castro Shake Hands at Summit - NBC News

Barack Obama (D) with Raul Castro (communist)


Ok, just a walk down memory lane:

Dwight D. Eisenhower (R) with Nikita Kruschchew (communist)

John F. Kennedy (D) with Nikita Kruschchew (communist)

Richard Nixon (R) with Mao Zhedong (communist)

Oh, and:

Richard Nixon (R) and Fidel Castro (communist)

Gerald Ford (R) with Leonid Brezhnev (communist)

Jimmy Carter (D) with Leonid Brezhnev (communist)

Ronald Reagan (R) and Michael Gorbachev (communist), 1985, BEFORE Perestroika.

George W. Bush, Sr. (R) shaking hands with Hugo Chavez (socialist)

Bill Clinton (D) with Boris Yeltsin (communist)

George W. Bush, Jr. (R) with Islam Karimov (communist)


Looks like Pres. Obama (D), shaking hands with Raul Castro (communist) is following a pretty long tradition..

Looks like a long list of presidents shaking communist hands.

Yepp. It's been par for the course and also a necessary part of the fine art of politics, especially in dealing with once or present adversaries.

Shaking each other's hands only? Oh.. it is in public… sorry.

Obama may be the worst president we have ever had to endure, but opening Cuba is a good thing.

We should learn from George Washington...
The great rule of conduct for us, in regard to foreign nations, is, in extending our commercial relations, to have with them as little political connection as possible. So far as we have already formed engagements, let them be fulfilled with perfect good faith. Here let us stop.
Harmony, liberal intercourse with all nations, are recommended by policy, humanity, and interest. But even our commercial policy should hold an equal and impartial hand; neither seeking nor granting exclusive favors or preferences; consulting the natural course of things; diffusing and diversifying by gentle means the streams of commerce, but forcing nothing;........

Ding, ding!

A sane response!

None of the others treated the tin pot dictators as equals, none of the others bowed to the saudi king, none of the others denigrated the USA in speeches on foreign soil.

Obama is the worst president in US history----------bar none.

Yes, opening Cuba would be a good thing. Do you have any idea why we broke off relations with them? Do you know why Kennedy put a naval blockade around Cuba?

Russia and China are drilling for oil in Cuban waters as we speak. They have no EPA or OSHA rules to follow. Those rigs are less than 80 miles from US soil. If one of them blows, the entire coast of Florida could be ruined. No, its not the end of the world. But there should be some conditions attached to reopening relations with them.

A handshake meant nothing.
Acting like a suckup to them through your policies is what Obama does and other presidents didn't do. On top of that, Obama likes to snub Democracies while kissing the ass of communists and terrorist regimes.

Then again, the Chinese and Russians aren't purposely causing disasters like Obama does. Right now, I trust them to do it right more than I trust the EPA.

good point. Obama is clearly determined to bring the USA to its knees and punish it for slavery, segregation, being rich, being strong, etc.

Like everything else liberals claim to care about and only feign outrage when they have an opportunity to blame capitalism and/or America, they could not possibly care less about any communist country drilling here, there or anywhere.

Look at how happy the fake judas Jew is that he shakes hand with a regime that abuses people.

Liberals, stand for nothing. Especially the golden calf worshiping American Jewish liberal.

Seeking to normalize relations with Cuba would be more in line with Nixon meeting with Mao.

Needless to say normalizing relations with Cuba is appropriate and long overdue.

That is the question.

your ignorance is showing again. What Bush did was culturally correct with an arab/muslim king. He treated him as an equal and showed respect for his cultural traditions.

Whereas Obama, by bowing, showed that he felt inferior to the king and was kowtowing to him.

There is no comparison.
