“Unafraid, Bi-Partisan, Uphold U.S. and Freedom”
Paul! Mr. Speaker! Censure Obama and deny his request for a 18% pension pay hike! Since you came to power earlier this year, your Republican majority in the House has done virtually nothing to rescue our republic from the nightmare of Obama! Incredibly, his most audacious request for a pay hike follows his watching baseball and playing footsie with Cuban dictators Fidel and Raul Castro, and dancing the tango in Buenos Aires!
Barack is surely no master of the art of the deal. While we support the opening to Cuba, we do not believe we should lift the embargo until some of our demands are satisfied: We are not calling for regime change, but we do call for release of all political dissidents. We also need to have persuasive proof, not yet provided by the Castros, that Hezbollah’s Islamic, Shiite terrorist station engaged in anti-U.S. and anti-Israel activities in the Western hemisphere has been closed.
We also need assurances and monitoring of Cuban ties with North Korea, to halt any illegal arms transfer through the Panama Canal or by any other route sea or air. We also have to certify that Cuba ceases advising and arming the FARC narco-communist terrorists in Colombia.
Cuba must further guarantee she will not try to interfere on behalf of the discredited Maduro government in Venezuela and hinder the process of democratization in that country. And let us also demand that U.S. criminals taking refuge in Cuba be extradited to America.
The delusions of our president are unprecedented. As Americans, we were ashamed listening to his a-historical, apologetic cant as he stood with Raul and listened to him detail the "shortcomings" of the United State. Describing the "constructive dialogue," our president basically provided a public relations endorsement of its repressive communist regime. All this while human rights dissidents, like the innocent Ladies in White were repressed on his arrival; some thrown into in jail.
Yury Pavlov, former head of the Soviet Latin American desk and author of The Soviet-Cuban Alliance, told done of these authors prisoner guards enjoyed shooting live targets, laughing and having a good time. As one former prisoner wrote, "In order to deal with Castro you have to overlook the fact that Castro is a cold-blooded murderer who approved the death by firing squad of each one of tens of thousands Cubans put to death by his direct orders, including some Americans, whose crime was opposing his reign of terror. You have been insensitive to the more than 500,000 thousand political prisoners, men, women and even children of every race and creed who were tortured in his dungeons, and over thirty thousand who died trying to cross the Florida straits in fragile makeshift rafts in their pursuit of freedom."
These authors also interviewed former prisoner Pedro Fuentes, who described the tortures he endured in jail.
Then came our president's passionless platitudes after the attack on our allies in NATO capitol Brussels. He knew many Americans were injured in the carnage, yet rather than coming home, he engaged in a pleasurable afternoon with two bloody dictators, responsible for killing thousands of Cuban patriots and innocent victims at home, but also during Cuba’s interventions in Angola and Ethiopia. Fidel also supported with arms and advisers, further carnage in Columbia, Nicaragua, El Salvador and elsewhere.
We call on you, Mr,. Speaker, to sponsor House resolutions as well as work with the Senate and its judicial giants, Senator Ted Cruz (R) Texas, and Senator Orin Hatch (R) Utah, to censure the president for aiding and abetting a foe of democracy -- and roundly propose a cut to his pension, rather than the 18% pension pay hike he has requested. t.
Mr. Obama’s repeated derelictions of duty could provide grounds for impeachment. Likely there is not enough time for that. Therefore let us register our dissatisfaction as we can. We are counting the days until Donald or Ted take over.
Watch for our full expose of Obama’s shameful performance coming soon.
