The Obama legacy: First it was the Cubans and now the Israelis

(My new Babalu post)
We would rather be talking about Nochebuena and the holidays. However, the Obama administration pulled an ugly one today, a very ugly one.
Sadly, it’s the Obama way. Yesterday Cuba and today Israel!
First, a little history. In 2012, President Obama ran for reelection on false premises. He took a hard line in public against the Castro dictatorship. In fact, he was negotiating with Cuba to put a US Embassy in the island.
I believe that Mr. Obama would have lost Florida if Cubans had known what he was doing in secret with the Castro dictatorship. After all, President Obama carried the state by 75,000 votes out of 8,5 million!
To date, the Cuba deal has been nothing but a legacy item. In other words, Cubans have no hope and nothing has changed.
Today, President Obama threw Israel under the bus at the United Nations: US abstains in key Israel vote, clearing way for condemnation of settlements.
Wonder how all of those Jewish voters in New York City and the US feel about that? Senator Schumer, the incoming US Senate Minority Leader, did not like it either, as we see in this tweet.
How much more can harm can this man do? He’s got 30 days left!
P.S. You can listen to my show (Canto Talk) and follow me on Twitter.
