Look! Up In The Sky!

HAVANA – Fidel Castro told a visiting American journalist that Cuba’s communist economic model doesn’t work, a rare comment on domestic affairs from a man who has conspicuously steered clear of local issues since stepping down four years ago.
The fact that things are not working efficiently on this cash-strapped Caribbean island is hardly news. Fidel’s brother Raul, the country’s president, has said the same thing repeatedly. But the blunt assessment by the father of Cuba’s 1959 revolution is sure to raise eyebrows.
Jeffrey Goldberg, a national correspondent for The Atlantic magazine, asked if Cuba’s economic system was still worth exporting to other countries, and Castro replied: The Cuban model doesn’t even work for us anymore*,” Goldberg wrote Wednesday in a post on his Atlantic blog.
He said Castro made the comment casually over lunch following a long talk about the Middle East, and did not elaborate. The Cuban government had no immediate comment on Goldberg’s account.

Shocked, I tell you. SHOCKED!
What’s going on here? First, Comrade Fidel told Mr. Dinner Jacket to lay off the Jews, and now this. He must know something we don’t: 1) He’s about to die, 2) The SHTF is about to occur, or 3) His recent near-death experiences may have shown him a new light on things. Who knows.

Totalitarian Progressive Cuba Condemns Arizona Law

Talk about a pile on on the State of Arizona! Now the Totalitarian Progressive regime of The Castro brothers in Cuba are denouncing the Arizona law. The audacity of this vile regime to even denounce the laws of another nation are beyond the pale. The Castro regime has killed and imprisoned thousands. They have seized property and assets from Cubans to create their Socialist utopia. But since Barack Hussein Obama and American Progressives are attacking Arizona, their Cuban Ideological brothers decide to chime in.

HAVANA (AP) – Cuban lawmakers have passed a resolution denouncing Arizona’s new immigration law as “racist and xenophobic,” recalling an old dispute in the process: the argument that the United States’ purchase of Arizona from Mexico in the 19th century was tantamount to theft.

The Arizona law has caused controversy since it was signed by Gov. Jan Brewer on April 23. It requires police to question people about their immigration status if there is reason to suspect they are in the country illegally.

Several U.S. cities including Seattle, Los Angeles, San Diego and Austin, Texas, have passed resolutions against the law or urged outright boycotts, and President Barack Obama has denounced it as “a misdirected expression of frustration.”

But the denunciation of the law by Cuban lawmakers, who called it a “brutal violation of human rights,” is sure to raise anger among U.S. backers of the law.

So the Cuban Progressives are on the same side as Barack Hussein Obama and the American Progressives. This is very revealing about who supports our political opponents.

Our Good friend China’s President visits Cuba

It really makes me sick that we depend on China for so much of our products. This is a result of disastrous Free Trade policies that have crippled our Industrial base, stagnated our wages and decimated our Middle Class.

I detest the policies of Bush I, Clinton and Bush II for what they did. They have a created a monster in China and now we owe then trillions and they have us by the balls. They know this and mock us by visiting our enemies like Cuba!

Castro serenades China’s Hu on landmark Cuba visit
Nov 18 07:58 PM US/Eastern

China’s President Hu Jintao made a landmark visit to Cuba Tuesday, bearing millions of dollars in aid and promises of closer future trade ties.

The Chinese leader brought 4.5 tonnes of humanitarian aid for victims of three hurricanes that battered Cuba this year, which was handed over late Monday after Hu’s arrival at the Jose Marti International Airport.

Receiving the gift, Cuba’s Minister of Foreign Investment and Economic Cooperation Rodrigo Malmierca said that Cuba “deeply appreciates the visit of President Hu Jintao, at the exact moment the country is struggling to recover and continue its development.”

It was the third donation China has made to assist Cuba in its recovery from hurricanes Gustav, Ike and Paloma, which caused 10 billion dollars worth of damages in the space of two months. Hurricane aid from the Chinese government and businesses has totalled more than 2.5 million dollars.

Later he accompanied President Raul Castro on a visit to a school for Chinese students, where the Cuban leader sang snippets of a song in Chinese praising late Communist Party Leader Mao Zedong.
