We've all had our share of Mariela Castro's visit and commentaries in the US.
First, she is now an expert on "gay rights". Wonder how all of those "gays" mistreated by the Castros feel about that?
Bizarre and very bizarre. Do you recall the last time that a family member of a hostile country came here and made such declarations?
It gets more bizarre when you compare Mariela's treatment with Lech Walesa, the former president of Poland.
Of course, we remember Mr Walesa as the leader of Solidarity, the labor union that stood up to the communists in Poland. He was elected president a few years later and remains one of the great voices of freedom.
We learned that the Obama administration declined to have LechWalesa stand in for the late Jan Karski, who posthumously received the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
I am sorry but that is bizarre.
Of course, Pres BO & Poland have not had a good relationship. Back in 2009, Pres BO canceled plans for a joint missile defense system between the United States and Poland, one of our most dependable post-Cold War NATO allies.
More recently, Pres BO insulted the Poles with remarks about "Polish death camps."
Am I missing something or is this how Pres BO treats our allies?
