There's plenty of tobacco in Cuba in case the two sides ever decide to light up the peace pipe
Not everyone agrees with sending Michelle Obama to Cuba. And some of those folks signing the White House petition say they're against it. I think it's great that there's a debate over the issue. And so keep the signatures coming whether you agree with the idea or not.
The petition is here. Thanks for your feedback.
Some of the most recent comments on the petition are below, including those from people who don't agree with the idea, made fun of it, signed anonymously or used other names:
* Margaret McNutt - great idea!
* Charles McNutt - go for it
* Candela - You go girl! Down with the Cuban rightwingers of Miami.* Myself She should go and see the Cuban apartheid in person without government guides or propaganda tours
* Tres Patines - Que cosa mas grande es la vida chico. Mi socio cual es la volá. Tu no tienes mas en que entretenerte? Por que no te sacas los mocos y te los comes?
* martin bove - A positive step in the right direction which is needed from the newly elected government of the USA.
* James Rollins - I'm in favor of sending not just Michelle, but also Barack, Biden, Barney Frank, Chris Dodd and Nancy Pelosi. But make sure you buy them a one way ticket!
* Crispin Gatiesa - If you like Castro so much, why don't you go there to lve under his boot. Moron!
* Free Biscet - Michelle, if you go to Cuba ask to see Dr. Oscar Elias Biscet, an Afro-Cuban doctor who is languishing in Castro's Gulag after he was sentenced to 25 years in jail for following the teachings of Dr. Martin Luther King
* Juan Kagada - This is a great idea. The Kagada family is in favor of this trip.

* Panfilo Jama, jama - what we need is jama
* Raul Castro - If you bring an I-pod for Fifo you have to bring one for me too

I do not think either of the Obamas should travel to Cuba or spend a lot of capital on changing the realtionship with Cuba and the U.S. until President Obama is elected to a second term.
ReplyDeleteThere are a lot of people working for president Obama's downfall and this would just light a fire under the feet of even more people who would work for his defeat in 2012.
The danger is that we would have the same people in charge as during W's administration and this would be worse for a lot more reasons than just Cuba.
