AIR FORCE ONE LANDS IN THE 1950’s

This is Obama’s plane landing in Cuba yesterday. Do you need any more proof of what 60 years of pure unadulterated socialism can accomplish? Shacks, hovels, and 40 year old automobiles. Obama’s dream for America.

People tend to blame this on the US embargo, but they’re fools. The rest of the world traded with Castro’s dictatorship. Cuba is dirt poor because of its insane system.

Of course, it’s also mostly black now, the influx of genes from the Iberian Peninsula having been thoroughly diluted.

Science says…”Consistent differences between racial and ethnic groups in g have been found, particularly in the U.S. A 2001 meta-analysis of millions of subjects indicated that there is a 1.1 standard deviation gap in the mean level of g between white and black Americans, favoring the former. The mean score of Hispanic Americans was found to be .72 standard deviations below that of non-Hispanic whites.[87] In contrast, Americans of East Asian descent generally slightly outscore white Americans.[88] Several researchers have suggested that the magnitude of the black-white gap in cognitive ability tests is dependent on the magnitude of the test’s g loading, with tests showing higher g loadings producing larger gaps (see Spearman’s hypothesis).[89] It has also been claimed that racial and ethnic differences similar to those found in the U.S. can be observed globally.[90]

DC, is right. Cuba is basically a black country at this point. Outside of tourist areas, the rest of the capitalist carribean is just as rough

A thought comes to mind.

Some of you have claimed that Cuba is partly downtrodden because it is a mostly black country. However, in the United States, black immigrants (whether African or Caribbean countries) have often outdone African-Americans, and this has resulted in tension. A quick online search will produce articles, some from African-American websites, about this very phenomenon. Some Caribbean immigrants even want to distance themselves from African-Americans.

I mention this because perhaps the existence of racism, while regrettable and oftentimes extremely ugly, does not necessarily always prevent people from succeeding – and because this throws a wrench into the left’s argument that people of color are being stopped from climbing the socioeconomic ladder by nothing other than old-fashioned… racism.

My Bernie-baby brother-in-law had the following say:

“I’m glad they are opening up Cuba, its about time!”

I agreed with him.

“Now people can see what socialism will really do for them!”

Honest question that has troubled me for decades.

So Cuba is a no-go zone for America. It’s communist run and ruled for better than half a century. America is it’s number one enemy. I personally fought Cubans during the Reagan era and they were clearly defined as “the enemy”. Buy so much as a cigar, and pay a quarter of a million dollars in fines and do ten years hard time at a Federal Pen.

All correct so far?

Explain Guantanamo.

Not one person in the thirty or more years I’ve been asking that question has given me a cogent reply that didn’t rely on some kind of legalism. Do we openly torture and imprison people in Pyongyang? Does Iran house their political dissidents in solitary confinement up in the Great Plains of North Dakota?

It’s proof positive of the complete theater of international politics. It’s a fraud and a sham and none of it has any basis in reality. It’s almost like an intentional warning to anyone sitting on the right hand side of the Bell curve to watch their P’s& Q’s, lest they be “disappeared”.

Guantanamo, practically speaking, is US territory on an island that is otherwise someone else’s territory (Cuba). It’s a fairly remote location on that very large island. Had there been a sustained hot war between the US and Cuba I’m sure it would have been overrun quickly, but there has not been such a hot war. It’s sort of like Hong Kong between 1949 and the (regrettable) handover to the PRC.

I don’t consider this a legalism – the US occupation of Guantanamo started with the OK from a friendly Cuban government, and continued after the government changed because discontinuing it would have required a war.

At the risk of being put on the Cut and Paste Police’s shitlist, I offer the following:

During a rare press conference in Havana, Cuba Monday, Communist Dictator Raul Castro became irritated with reporter questions about human rights abuses inside the country and accused the United States of double standards on the issue.

Standing next to President Obama, who “normalized” relations with Cuba in December 2014, Castro accused the United States of racism, failing to provide the “rights” of education and healthcare to its people and accused the government of condoning unequal pay for men and women.

“The United States shouldn’t be immune to criticism,” Castro said, clearly frustrated and irritated with press questions. “Human rights issues should not be politicized…our stance on human rights will not change.”

Castro also denied the regime holds political prisoners, despite arresting more than 50 dissidents just hours before President Obama’s arrival on the island.

“What political prisoners? Give me a name? Give me a list?” Castro said, ending the press conference. “It’s not correct to ask me about political prisoners. This is enough.”

“Fuck the murdering bastard Che.”

Yep. I just might get one of those Tshirts, too. Obama doesn’t realize that Che would have called him (behind his back, of course) a “pinche mallate` culero” .

Che despised black people.

Meanwhile, in Iraq where we currently have 4000 Marines deployed, (but none of them are “boots on the ground”), one U.S. Marine was killed this weekend and eight more were wounded fighting ISIS. Now, the HNIC is sending yet another detachment of Marines which are probably more like “high heels on the ground”, thus not boots on the ground, to fight a war that he anointed himself with oil over for bringing to an end – a war that the evil Bush started – a wrong that he corrected, as it were. He’s enough to make one spew and wretch.

But to hell with that crap. He’s got a sermon to deliver in Cuba with mucho photo ops. What a walking, breathing piece of excrement this narcissistic bastard is..

1. Maybe Stucky can tell us how old a ’54 Chevy is. I think it’s older than 40 or 50 years old.

2. Ed, El Che was Argentine, if he had been American they would have called him El Yanqui.

3. Mexicans don’t call themselves ‘Che’. Yet you have Che Guevara using Mexican slang. Actually, that is Mexican-American slang.

4. Look, a black beetle is a pinacate. Mexican nationals know that a mayate is a June bug. Pochos use the word incorrectly, dumbasses.

Yeah, but it was funny as shit, anyway. Imagine that uptight little maniac shaking hands with the Kikuyu, then muttering “Pinche mallate`culero” with a chulo accent as Obama walks over to flip his wrist at Raul.

I know the mass-murdering little bedbug was Argentine. Lighten up. Everything doesn’t have to be serious all the time. Sheesh.

Those Obama/Che layovers are precious, NeoMarxism is clearly rooted and taken hold. I would have thought the 20th century to have ample examples of this folly. Sadly the Earth is young, demographically and the NeoMarx’s are making impressive gains recently.

In Cuba, Starwood Properties is the big winner, 3 big done deals, funny how Starwood is being acquired by the Chinese, forcibly. Ha ha.
China’s list of US acquisitions begins to impress, both in dollar value and diversity.
