Obama Vows to Ease Cuban Embargo
MIAMI (AP) - Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama criticized President Bush's Cuba policy, and promised to roll back the extra travel and financial restrictions added by Bush. In 2004, Bush changed US law so that Cubans in the U.S. can only visit the island once every three years and can only send quarterly remittances of up to $300 per household to immediate family members. Previously, they could visit once a year and send up to $3,000. Obama said he would rescind those policies, and hinted that other changes might follow.
"I want to make it easier for Cuban-Americans to visit their loved ones," said Obama. "In fact, I want to make it easier for ALL Americans to visit Cuba. When I am elected President, my first act will be full legalization of travel to Cuba. Starting with 100,000 heavily armed American troops." "Let's face it," Obama said, "it's just downright embarrassing to have a commie dictatorship 90 miles from our border. JFK totally screwed the pooch on the Bay of Pigs invasion in '61, and it's WAY past high time we put a band-aid on that bloody nose and went back in, swinging like Mike Tyson & ready to eat some ears. Or at the very least, spraying napalm like Smaug doing a spit-take." "Now, I have a firm 'no nukes' policy," clarified Obama, "but I never said anything about chemical or biological weapons. There's a time and a place for mustard gas, and if Cuba ain't it, I don't know what is." "Once Cuba is a cratered ruin and the Gulf of Mexico flows red with the blood of degenerate Commie swine," Obama concluded, "there would be no further need for Bush's failed embargo policy." 22 Responses To "Obama Vows to Ease Cuban Embargo"
Are you sure (in the picture) that Obama's not just demonstrating how he too will hand his testicles over to Hillary eventually? #1 - Posted by: G Fresh on August 22, 2007 01:58 PMThere you go again, G Fresh, hitting the Democrat testicle on the head. I think Obamma is also saying, "Hey ladies, look at what these piano fingers can do!" #2 - Posted by: Jimmy on August 22, 2007 02:09 PMIf only Barry had the cajones to actually do something like that to Cooba. Or, if he only had cajones at all... #3 - Posted by: AlanABQ on August 22, 2007 02:20 PMI believe G Fresh is alluding to the prospect of Obamma being Hillary's VP, in which case, Fresh is right: he WOULD have to turn over his and Alan's cajones to Hillary. Hillary can't have cajones like Alan (and the rest of us!) rattling around out there. #4 - Posted by: Jimmy on August 22, 2007 02:26 PMIf Obama actually said this, I'd seriously consider voting for him. Unless Fred runs, of course. #5 - Posted by: Rick on August 22, 2007 02:31 PMLol! Jimmy, you gotta buy me dinner first before you start expounding the virtues of my cajones... Is it me, or is this segment turning into an anatomy forum? 'Cause if it is, lets talk about Mary Katherine Ham & Michelle Malkin! #6 - Posted by: AlanABQ on August 22, 2007 02:38 PMOK, by me, Alan, except...I went to Moe Lane's link (Kos) and shuddered. Maybe we need to stay on topic and actually start outlining the REAL differences between Conservatives and Liberals. That way those stupid, bile-eating Kos pukes can learn something! Nah. Your idea is better. EggsHamInNation and MauledByMichelleMalkin. #7 - Posted by: j on August 22, 2007 02:43 PMThat was awesome. I'd be ecstatic to see any candidate say this. Thanks for the laughs, Harvey. #8 - Posted by: kyb on August 22, 2007 03:10 PMMauled by Michelle Malkin... Oh, do I dare to dream... #9 - Posted by: AlanABQ on August 22, 2007 03:14 PMSorry about that "j" up there. But here's an interesting tidbit that could get us back on topic: Confession of a recovering Democrat The deal JFK made with the Soviets was basically "hands off Cuba." The question, is, WHY did Kennedy agree to that? And, American presidents have treated it like it was a TREATY ever since. Are we just waiting for Castro to die and for things to take a positive course on their own? Kind of like Kissinger's philosophy about China? Dangerous, IMAO. Bill Clinton put Osama Obama up to this so that he is able resume his import of cuban ceegars which he will put to good use once his "wife" is elected POTUS and he has free run of the White House intern staff... #11 - Posted by: ussjimmycarter on August 22, 2007 03:44 PMThat sounds like a "win-win situation" for Bill, ussjimmycarter. But what do Artillery and OMyMamma get out of it? #12 - Posted by: Jimmy on August 22, 2007 03:50 PMJimmy, Osama Obama has been adopted by Maddona and unless she agrees, he can no longer comment on political matters. #13 - Posted by: ussjimmycarter on August 22, 2007 04:01 PMWhich leaves Hillary-Artillery Clinton in charge of Bill, an Obamination, and everyone else (including Cooba and Alan). Master stroke of Clinton genius. #15 - Posted by: Jimmy on August 22, 2007 04:15 PMOh, I think Frank J will survive - from an overseas, proxy website! #16 - Posted by: Jimmy on August 22, 2007 04:19 PMKeep it up Obama. You could be our first Communist, Cuban, African (but not American) president. #17 - Posted by: seanmahair on August 22, 2007 04:29 PMI've missed it! All along I've been watching the Communist Bear and what's really going to happen is a taking over of America from Cuba with Hillary and Osama Obama leading the Communist hoards....good God...someone help us... #18 - Posted by: ussjimmycarter on August 22, 2007 05:05 PMIf Barakalypse becomes POTUS, it seems the only safe place to be will be Iraq. Since he seems to want absolutely nothing to do with it. #19 - Posted by: DesertElephant on August 22, 2007 05:35 PMI wish this post were true...I'd vote for Obama in a heartbeat if he really intended something like this. Make the Gulf red with the blood of the Communist heathen. #20 - Posted by: otcconan on August 22, 2007 09:42 PM"I want to make it easier for Cuban-Americans to visit their loved ones," said Obama. "In fact, I want to make it easier for ALL Americans to visit Cuba." I agree. Kill Castro and all other communists, help create a democratic republic, build a bridge between Key West and Havana and make Cuba the 51st state. Then Cuban-Americans can send as much and visit as often as they want. #21 - Posted by: zypldot on August 23, 2007 07:40 AMI'm confused: am I supposed to vote Obama now? After all "eager to kill commies" is, after all, #1 on my Presidential Qualifications short-list. #22 - Posted by: James on August 23, 2007 06:04 PMPost a comment
