grab your popcorn; "obama shakes hand of castro"

[Sasha]

this is bound to be going over well on fox news: http://www.reuters.com/article/2013/12/10/us-mandela-obama-castro-idUSBRE9B90E220131210

:lol:

[ВАЛТЕР]

I knew it! Obama is a communist muslim black panther socialist marxist dictator!

[Remus Bleys]

I knew it! Obama is a communist muslim black panther socialist marxist dictator!

Or Castro is a bourgeois head of state.

Whichever works I guess.

[reb]

I'm holding my reservations about Obama being a communist until I see him in a Che Guevara t-shirt.

[Fourth Internationalist]

What if this isn't the first time they've met? :ohmy:

[The Jay]

You mean that they haven't begun dismantling the cuban state or eliminating wage-labor in addition to forming two separate parts of the country such that one can service the rest of the world as good servants to the rich?

[M42-AEK]

Someone make a good meme:laugh:

[Sinister Intents]

Awesome! Progress is being made and soon we'll be free of bourgeois tyranny :rolleyes:

[brigadista]

It was cursory and I caught a glimpse of David Cameron leaving and being ignored by everyone :)

[G4b3n]

I can see the Fox News headlines now: "Obama greets communists while mourning over death of black radical".

[Jimmie Higgins]

Christ, yeah I saw this was the top story when I looked at google-news. Such a weird focus on decorum when it comes to international diplomacy for capitalist governments... it's like lordly-relations in feudalism or something. That or middle-school gossip. I don't know and don't really care. Call me when some world leader winks at another world leader and we end up in a trade war or something.

[adipocere]

More diplomatically, the selfie. (http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/world-news/david-cameron-barack-obama-selfie-2912167)

That guy is a clown. He's the only one both hated by the extreme-left and the extreme-right. lol.

[Remus Bleys]

This is a joke post right?

[Blake's Baby]

US Presidents shaking hands with Godless Cuban dictato-leaders makes Jesuses die.

[helot]

US Presidents shaking hands with Godless Cuban dictato-leaders makes Jesuses die.



all 17 of them, obviously :p

[Yuppie Grinder]

all 17 of them, obviously :p

I'm a Jesus. My name is Jesus.

[Zukunftsmusik]

I keep reading the thread title as "gay pop porn"

[ed miliband]

two bourgeois statesmen shake hands, what's there to see here?

[helot]

I'm a Jesus. My name is Jesus.



18 then. Anymore?

[Yuppie Grinder]

18 then. Anymore?

It's really a very common name.

[helot]

It's really a very common name.



That it is, very popular among hispanics iirc.

[servusmoderni]

This is a joke post right?
Do you really need that I post a warning before making a joke.

Although it is a joke, it's true. Extreme-leftists hate him because he's an imperialist and a capitalist and far-rightist hate him because he's a Kenyan islamist-fascist-communist dictator.

[Remus Bleys]

Do you really need that I post a warning before making a joke.
well your a stalinist so i thought you might buy into that left v right bullshit as well as castro somehow being great or that commies and fash don't hate all heads of state


Although it is a joke, it's true. Extreme-leftists hate him because he's an imperialist and a capitalist and far-rightist hate him because he's a Kenyan islamist-fascist-communist dictator.
hes certainly not the only one

[TheEmancipator]

That guy is a clown. He's the only one both hated by the extreme-left and the extreme-right. lol.

Wow, you showed us you hate Obama. Tell us more about your 'extreme left' credentials, bro.

[Logical seal]

Obama is just a simple puppet, As simple as the fourth word in the sentence.


Castro got corrupted by the soviets and turned into a authortian asshole.

now lets get back to beating rush limbaguh with a baseball bat.

[Remus Bleys]

Implying castro wasn't always petty bourgeois

[Logical seal]

Well remus, We're all born innocent, And those who teach us we generally follow.

This is not a christan thing I just said, Just want to be clear on that.

[Klaatu]

Sen John McCain is complaining about Obama shaking hands with Castro? So what?

McCain shook hands with dictators such as Mohammar Gaddafi. So what?

[Prometeo liberado]

More diplomatically, the selfie. (http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/world-news/david-cameron-barack-obama-selfie-2912167)

http://i1.mirror.co.uk/incoming/article2912149.ece/ALTERNATES/s615/US-President-Barack-Obama-2912149.jpg

Not only is this bad form considering the event but can Obama be any bigger an ass and piss off his boring wife? Christ I hate slow news days.

[RedHal]

Why is Castro shaking the hands of a war criminal?

[Bala Perdida]

Anybody happen to hear his Obama's speech about how he hates leaders that talk about "freedom" without tolerating it from their own people. I guess hunting down whistle blowers doesn't count as restricting freedom.

[Comrade Jacob]

Well remus, We're all born innocent, And those who teach us we generally follow.

This is not a christan thing I just said, Just want to be clear on that.

How would it be Christian? Christianity believe we have original sin...

[Comrade #138672]

Well remus, We're all born innocent, And those who teach us we generally follow.

This is not a christan thing I just said, Just want to be clear on that.What about his class background?

[Queen Mab]

I caught bits of the memorial. It boiled my blood to see bourgeois politicians jet in from around the world to lecture working class South Africans on the True Meaning of Mandela. Who gives a fuck what Obama or Ban Ki-Moon thinks?

But seeing the crowd ignore some of the speakers and sing anti-apartheid songs, then boo Jacob Zuma was kinda heart-warming.

Fuck politicians basically.

[Sea]

Implying castro wasn't always petty bourgeoisYou keep using that term, but I don't think you know what it means.

[Queen Mab]

Jimmie Higgins nails it actually. :grin:

These sorts of diplomatic events are completely insane when you think about it.

[Dennis the 'Bloody Peasant']

And now the 'selfie' taken by Cameron, Obama and Helle Thorning-Schmidt has become a story for some of our shitty tabloids.

The Labour-backing rag said this about both photos -

[Remus Bleys]

You keep misusing that term, even though you know what it means.
Fixed.

[Comrade Chernov]

Well, hey, at least it'll make some right-wingers rage. I always like seeing right-wingers rage.

[Halert]

I was promised angry right-wingers raging at Obama, but when i go to conservative media all they talk about is the budget. They mention Obama's handshake a few times and make some jokes and limbaugh is saying "Obama didn't know it was Raul Castro's hand he was shaking" very disappointing. Now i got all this popcorn and no entertainment. :(

[ed miliband]

seriously i think that selfie was the greatest thing either man has ever done.

also, this is just incredible:

Nah, ive seen my share of liberals wearing Che shit

:lol:

[Tolstoy]

For people who are surprised by this, I really must say that this was a funeral: What was Obama supposed to do, ball up pieces of paper and throw them at Raul when nobody was looking?

[Sasha]

oh absolutely, i only posted it because of the predictable outrage of fucking insane wingnuts (as apperently john mcCain is by now)

[servusmoderni]

That guy was in a hole in Vietnam for multiple months, no wonder he's crazy.

[Zukunftsmusik]

Nah, ive seen my share of liberals wearing Che shit

I think this was kinda the point

[Sasha]

That guy was in a hole in Vietnam for multiple months, no wonder he's crazy.

Strangely after Vietnam he was pretty forgiving towards his tormenters etc, he was also never that hawkish, its only after his last presidental run he suddenly comes out with teabagging insanity again and again.

[Eleutheromaniac]

Sen John McCain is complaining about Obama shaking hands with Castro? So what?

McCain shook hands with dictators such as Mohammar Gaddafi. So what?

Don't forget this one: http://www.religiousfreedomcoalition.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/McCainSyria2.jpg

[Flying Purple People Eater]

18 then. Anymore?

Well, technically everyone with the name 'Joshua', 'Yehoshua' or 'Yeshua' is basically Jesus. Jesus is a Greek bastardization of 'Yeshua/Yehoshua', and Joshua is the German/Dutch bastardization ('J' is pronounced as 'Y' in said languages, however).

So that makes for a lot of Jesuses. Two in the Bible, to be precise.
